Chicken with vegetables in a baking bag
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. It's tasty, healthy, and light! Chicken with vegetables baked in a roasting bag takes no more than an hour and retains maximum vitamins. Moreover, it's very easy to prepare: just put all the ingredients into the bag and place it in the oven. The dish cooked this way preserves almost all of its qualities, as it's prepared in its own juices. The finished dish can be served immediately.

2. I usually use chicken legs, but it's a matter of preference—you can roast a whole chicken or any parts of it this way. Before placing the poultry into the oven bag, season the meat with salt and spices to taste.
