Chicken in onion sauce

Category: Meat dishes

Ingredients
Large pieces of chicken	0.5KG
Large onion	2 pcs
Small piece of butter
Bay leaf
Black peppercorns

Cooking method

• The recipe is taken and prepared according to the book by Peter Weil "Russian cuisine in exile":
• “Take large chunks of chicken and coarsely chopped onions: 2 medium onions per pound of poultry. In the bottom of a saucepan, place a small chunk of butter, bay leaves, peppercorns, chicken, onions - not a drop of water! - salt, put on low heat, and leave.
• Take care of cleaning, love, self-education - everything will happen in the kitchen without your participation. An hour and a half later you will receive a wonderful juicy dish, which is good for any side dish: boiled potatoes, rice, pasta.
• Chicken in onion sauce is good because it can be cooked often, with a variety of additives. For example, you can immediately put two or three dried mushrooms in a saucepan. Another option is to add half a glass of sour cream, 3-4 cloves of garlic, a handful of chopped parsley or cilantro, a teaspoon of dry basil, marjoram or caraway seeds, half a glass of wine five minutes before removing from the heat - any of these additives gives a new dish, since the onion sauce actively accepts the addition of spices and spices. "
• Everything is said in the words of the author, the whole recipe.
• Taste-juicy meat, glazed delicious onion, crust on pieces, mmm, so yummy !!!!

Time for preparing:

Note

It is better to do it in a brazier, you can also do it in a pot in the oven.
I did it on the stove, in a saucepan with a thick bottom, put everything at room temperature and lit the gas.
I cooked the chicken for about 45 minutes .. I recommend that after 25 minutes, look into the saucepan and turn the pieces.
Onions and peppers, as well as bay leaves, will perfectly convey their taste to the chicken.
The onion is better bigger, it will be juicier.
Another addition - I took chicken breasts, removed the skin ... cut the fillet from the bone ...

Wow, what an interesting recipe. The same can be cooked in a slow cooker, rather than a pot.

[Gaby]

Gaby
we can say that the recipe is both simple and very tasty !!!! and you don't really need to be sophisticated)))
I also made meat according to the same book, but it will be a different story, also sooooo tasty !!!!

And in a slow cooker !!!

[Scarecrows]

I cook this chicken recipe Scarecrows... The recipe is the same, only ground cumin and a little white wine are added. It's delicious indeed. I cook in multi-boil and sometimes on the stove.
Here is the prescription - Chicken onion

[Melisa72ru]

I agree - for a slow cooker it will go 100%. I think it will work out - super, especially in onion juice it will get tired ...
Melisa72ru - for delicious simplicity.
* JOKINGLY * Girls, but I also liked the phrase in the recipe: "salt, put on low heat and LEAVE" ... I wanted to continue: "... for two or three weeks, maybe for a couple of months ... from the kitchen ... WAAP! "

So I also mention the same book. "Russian cuisine in exile". They are the same recipe. The take turned out.
Wine and caraway are options from me personally, because I cook with wine, and my mother used to cook with cumin. The recipe also indicates what to put or not to put at will.

Melisa72ru, thanks for the recipe. But I see in your photo a lightly fried onion, but I have a lot of moisture, I did everything according to the recipe, I did not add water. But very, very tasty and the main thing is simple

And I insist on saving the recipe, girls, it's just not possible to check all the recipes and also the recipe in Melissa's presentation hooked me more (Scarecrow no offense).

P.S.Yes, not even half a year has passed since it dawned on me why Chuchelkin didn’t “hook” the recipe, thanks to Yelenka, I didn’t have the right wine and therefore for me this recipe went a little to the side, because I thought that without wine, the dish will not work at all or it will be completely different.

Baby MJ
yes, my breast and onions are browned,
all the liquid has evaporated, in a special saucepan lid. steam outlet))))
the timer went off-looked-that everything is almost half-fried) but the juiciness of the meat remained !!
Gas stove, made on the stove, if in a pot in the oven, it will be completely different ...

Well, yes, I did not think, there is a special hole for steam outlet for sure. And I'm in the gosyatnitsa on the old stove But it's still very tasty.
I will think about buying a good saucepan with a good bottom

[Baby MJ]

Baby MJ
You just need to be vigilant, so it may burn)))
in principle, and in the gosyatnitsa delicious, in the onion juice itself))))

I use the same principle to make a rabbit in a cast-iron pot-cauldron with an enamel coating, but I also put grated carrots.But you have to watch out: otherwise, all the juice may evaporate and the onions are fried first of all until the coals

[Albina]

Albina
yes, you are right, so I almost overlooked, and it turned out a little fried breast, but this circumstance did not affect the taste
This recipe can be varied in various ways - with a rabbit and with a chicken, add carrots - at your discretion and imagination

I also remembered making pork in a pressure cooker - CLASS turns out

[Melisa72ru]

Melisa72ru, thank you very much, the chicken turned out to be very tasty. I put it in a slow cooker overnight, when I read that you need to make sure that the sauce does not evaporate and the onions are not fried, so I poked it into the slow cooker, nothing is welded there. Such a smell lasted all night, the cat rushed to the kitchen, like an abnormal one. The only remark to myself - I will follow. times larger than a chicken cut.

thanks again

Scarecrow! chibe, too, + for the chick in exile, your alcoholic in the trail. time

[IRR]

IRR
wow, what a yummy picture!
I understand your cat's feelings
I would also sit under the doors and choke on saliva
But then how "delightful" in eating chicken

[IRR]

IRR, very appetizing! But, indeed, the pieces are too small. You know, after all, "the mouth rejoices at a good piece"
I have never fried this chicken, on the contrary, it turns out all in juice ... and always drunk.

You know, after all, "the mouth rejoices at a good piece"

just about ... she thought pilaf, and then turned here ...

in the next. since I will try her like nada

Mellisa, thanks for the recipe and I cooked slowly, it was not ruddy, but biting to the point of disgrace. I had to cook for 2 hours on fast mode, I was just cleaning the apartment, after a while there was such a smell from the kitchen that I wanted to run to the kitchen without delay.
IRR, and on what mode did you cook all night on Low?

[Melisa72ru]

Melisa72ru , and thanks from me! I also cooked chicken, only in a slow cooker. Fast, not at all troublesome and very tasty!

[Melissa]

IRR, and on what mode did you cook all night on Low?

on it

I was preparing for 2 hours on a fast mode, I was just cleaning the apartment, after a while such a smell from the kitchen went,

Vika, you Melissa told me to make love, and you? in, people ... (or did you follow the list?)

[Melissa]

Vika, you Melissa told me to make love, and you? in, people ... (or did you follow the list?)

While you are attentive, I then read the recipe several times and saw only leave the kitchen, what was written further did not see at all, how I read my mind like that. Now I re-read it again and saw that I had gone according to the first item, love is next on the list.

[Gabi, IRR]

Gabi, IRR
girls, you can't make me laugh like that in the morning
In general, we do everything strictly according to the recipe: we throw the chicken somewhere in the slow cooker. pots. quickly rovakri, etc., and then on points:

"Take care of cleaning, love, self-education - everything will happen in the kitchen without your participation."

Behold

Melisa Viktorovna, thanks for the recipe! Ukusnaaaaaaa !!!!!
I cooked about 700 gr of chicken breast in MB Brand 501. The breasts were very juicy, stewed liquids in 30 minutes. stood out, mom darAgai! Translated to "Manual" at 120 grams and after 20 minutes - served! I wanted a tan, like in the main photo, but it didn't work. The child came from class, smelled the smell of spice and began to groom: I want to eat! Therefore, I did not deal with decorating, but immediately began tasting. The onions were practically dried out, but this is even better, the daughter ate, and did not pick. With buckwheat and fresh cucumber, they have already crushed the floor of the pan
Here are just the text

Take care of cleaning, love, self-education - everything will happen in the kitchen without your participation.

Did not work out! Abydna, yes!

[Ksyushk @ -Plushk @]

Ksyushk @ -Plushk @
Plyushkin, what, you couldn't even do the cleaning?
Onions in this recipe, according to mothers' reviews, all the kids eat, which usually make a disgruntled "pug" on onions
Eh, and Semych didn't get anything? from 700 grams?

[Ksyushk @ -Plushk @]

Ksyushk @ -Plushk @
Plyushkin, what, you couldn't even do the cleaning?

Did not work out. While the child has laid, while the other has met. This and that and already squeaked: "Served to eat, go eat please!".

Ksyushk @ -Plushk @
Eh, and Semych didn't get anything? from 700 grams?

Semyonitch does not eat like that, for he is indifferent. Eats dry, you know.

[Evgeniya,]

Evgeniya, thanks for the recipe.
This is the first thing I cooked in a small slow cooker. Made from two breasts with two large onions. The aroma in the apartment was on all 22 floors of the house, probably, and even it happened at night, when normal people are sleeping or, on the contrary, are not sleeping normal?



During the simmering, the liquid almost covered the breast and took out the meat from the bowl, put the potatoes there, cooked it for three hours.

Next time, I will cook pea soup with this broth.

[VS NIKA]

VS NIKA Victoria, thanks to Peter Vail))) for his wonderful book, written already in 1980 ..
How are the neighbors ??? Nobody made any claims about the magic aromas? and even at night)))

I think that at night in a dream, they choked with saliva.

And I would come ... to be indignant, but right away with a plate: Let's try

[Evgeniya,]

Evgeniya, how fragrant it was ... Yesterday I cooked such a chicken for dinner.
They didn't let me take pictures - while I was running on the camera, the whole still life was violated - they took a sample
I didn't scold too much, because everyone was very hungry.
Next time I'll be quicker ... Of course, I really wanted to bring thanks along with the photo!
Thanks from the whole family. I will repeat over and over and try different options indicated in the recipe.

[Marina]

Hi,Marina, cool that the family liked it (one of my favorite recipes) ..
How did they get through the cooking times and the flavors ???
I love onions from this chicken !!!!! I always lay it more

[Zhenechka]

I had to cook in a slow cooker, because the time for preparing dinner was limited. I didn't have to endure pleasant aromas for a long time - 20 minutes and you're done!
Of course, slow languishing in this case would be very nice, but I have neither time nor slow cooker.
I will try with mushrooms, wine and other herbs - m-mmmm, how delicious!
Thanks again, Zhenechka!

A-ah-ah .... Immediately at the same time, chicken hock with potatoes nizza? Like, to throw it at night / in the morning on a low, and in the morning / evening it is already ready, and you do not need to be on duty with potatoes while the chicken is cooked

I think you can. At that moment I had not yet caught up with such a thought!

Great recipe !!!!
I still do this with beef, in the oven, for three hours, and any meat hardness just melts in my mouth.

And we put our Jewish national dish Cholnt (hamin) into the MDA all night on the principle of "all products at once".

Thanks for the recipe, I just did not understand the moment: close the lid?

[Melisa72ru]

Melisa72ru, thanks for the recipe I cooked in m / boiling Redmond-02 on the program Stewing for 3 hours (after two hours the onion was still a little harsh). Frozen turkey steak - 1pc, chicken drumstick - 1pc, all according to the author's recipe, just sprinkled dried cilantro and a handful of dried bell peppers mixture. There was a lot of onion sauce, I’ll cook potatoes in it. The turkey meat turned out to be tender, I almost ate it already.

I have a lot of USSR recipes, still written in a notebook)) sometimes I use it, it's checked !!!

[Melisa72ru]

Melisa72ru, Zhenya, thank you very much for the recipe! Delicious chicken!

[Rusalca]

Rusalca, Anna. to your health !!!! I love this recipe myself. threw everything and do whatever you want

I love this recipe myself. threw everything and do whatever you want

and AT THE EXIT DELICIOUS CHICKEN!

I put it in a slow cooker for the night,

What is your model and size of the slow cooker? Your beauty turned out wonderful, and I cooked in Russell Hobbs for 3.5 liters for 4 hours on High and it turned out completely differently, most likely it was necessary to take half of chicken and onions too. For the first two hours, it smelled strongly of raw onions, a lot of liquid was released and small bones got into the sauce. It turned out very tasty, especially when cold, but it turned out to be a completely different dish
