Chicken with grapes in the oven topcook.tomathouse.com
Ingredients:
- 280 gr. couscous (about 1 and 1/4 cups)
- 2 tsp. Provencal herbs or Italian seasoning
- 2 cups red or white seedless grapes, halved
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 chicken weighing 1.8 kg, cut into 12 pieces
- 1 medium red onion, sliced into wedges
Preparation:
- Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat the oven to 230°C.
- Cook the couscous according to package directions, without oil. Fluff it with a fork and toss with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, season with salt and pepper to taste. Cover and keep warm.
- Meanwhile, place the chicken and onion on a rimmed baking sheet and toss with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, herbes de Provence, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Arrange the chicken skin-side up on the baking sheet and roast until the skin begins to brown, about 15 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the oven and add the grapes. Continue baking until the chicken is golden brown and the grapes are tender, another 15-20 minutes. Divide the chicken, onions, and grapes among plates and drizzle with the sauce from the pan. Serve with couscous.
