Rosemary And Garlic Roast Chicken

This is a recipe from WW "Simply Delicious" Cookbook which I came across while browsing the internet.
Roast chicken probably is the easiest food to dish up when you need a bit of in-between time to watch your favourite program (at this moment it is the American Idol initial audition!).

Preheat oven to 180C
Prepare the bird (I used 4 thighs and 4 drumsticks). Take off most of the the fatty skin, towel-dry and marinate with salt and pepper. Coat chicken pieces with about 2 tbsp flour. Brown in a tbsp or 2 of hot oil. Drain and place in a heatproof casserole. Sweat 1 big thinly sliced onion in the same oil. Drain and place together with the chicken pieces.

Sauce

1/4 cup red wine vinegar

1 Tbsp olive oil

1 Tbsp Dijon mustard

1 tsp dried chopped rosemary

2 cloves garic, cut into thin slivers

1/2 tsp salt

Mix vinegar, garlic, mustard, olive oil and rosemary together in a bowl.

Spread this sauce over the chicken and put into the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until chicken pieces become golden brown.

No need to turn, stir or whatever. Just sit back, relax and watch your favourite program!

The sauce was amazingly delicious with a very rich creamy texture although no cream or cheese were used. Prefect for telly dinners.
