Last night we had roasted chicken with rice and sauteed onions.
I just love to eat sauteed onions. Yum!
I really need to work on my picture quality, but even though it looks like an alien, it was delicious nonetheless.
Roast Chicken
1 whole chicken (insides removed)
salt and pepper
- Preheat the oven to 425 F.
- Rinse the chicken then season with salt and pepper.
- Place the chicken on its side in an oven safe dish. Bake for 30 minutes.
- Rotate the chicken onto its other side and bake for another 30 minutes.
- Rotate the chicken onto its belly and bake for 25-45 minutes (depending on the size...bigger=longer). When a thermometer inserted into the thigh reads 170 F the chicken is cooked.
- Remove from the oven and let rest for 5-10 minutes.
Sauteed Onions
1 onion, chopped
organic canola oil
salt
- In a skillet heat the oil over medium-high heat.
- Add the onion and cook, stirring often, until golden and soft.
- Season with salt and serve.
2 cups white rice (not instant rice)
3 cups water
1 Tbsp oil
salt
- Rinse the rice in cool water.
- Heat the oil in a sauce pan over high heat.
- Add the rice and saute for 1 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Add a hefty pinch (or 2) of salt. Stir into the rice.
- Add the water. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer.
- Cover and cook for 20 minutes, or until soft and fluffy. Check the rice every so often to keep from burning it.
- Fluff with a fork, season with more salt if desired, serve and enjoy!
