Frontenac Chicken

Not that the world needs another chicken recipe but if you want a quick and easy dish for the family, this could be it for you.

Last night we had a few veggies, a chicken, some herbs and a bottle of Frontenac. Found the ceramic chicken cooker. (I have no idea what the proper name of these things are.) Chopped up an onion, carrot, celery and placed it at the bottom of the cooker.

Poured the wine in the center. Rubbed the chicken down with some olive oil, fresh garlic and some Italian seasonings we had in the pantry. Placed it in a preheated oven at 350 for 50 minutes and dinner was served.


Be sure to temp your chicken and make sure it has an internal temperature of 165 degrees.

This was great with some roasted sweet potatoes, spring carrots and was also great with Frontenac wine. Some might scream “NOOOO!” at the thought of drinking red wine with chicken, but I believe that one should base their wine decision on whatever they feel like drinking.

See you at the Winery!
