How long to bake tobacco chicken in the oven

What could be tastier than chicken fried until crispy? Juicy meat soaked in the tantalizing aroma of garlic and herbs? We are, of course, talking about the recipe for chicken tabaka.

To be precise, the dish is more correctly called tapaka chicken. In Georgian, “frying pan” is called “tapa” - it is a heavy cast-iron frying pan equipped with a heavy press lid that presses down the chicken, thereby helping it cook evenly. But this does not mean that it is necessary to fry the chicken in a frying pan. If you build a pressure, you can cook tobacco chicken in the oven, where it will cook just as quickly and remain juicy.

So let's figure out how to marinate and cook tobacco chicken in the oven - a step-by-step recipe with photos will help you easily prepare a delicious Georgian dish and arrange a real feast for the stomach!

How to cook tobacco chicken in the oven

  1. I washed the chicken thoroughly and dried it with a towel. I cut off the fatty gland in the tail, which can give off an unpleasant odor when baked.
  2. Then the carcass was turned upside down. I cut it along the breast into two parts, as if opening it like a book. If there is a heart, lungs or other entrails inside, be sure to remove them.
  3. Place the bird on a cutting board, skin side up, and cover with cling film (to prevent splattering). I beat the carcass with a hammer, on the side that is without teeth - it is important that the chicken turns out perfectly flat, but the skin is not damaged. The carcass should be smooth over the entire surface, without protruding parts. Pay special attention to the cartilage areas on the thighs and wings, as well as the thick area of ​​the breast.
  4. In a small bowl I combined vegetable oil, lemon juice, salt and all the spices. She mixed and rubbed the resulting aromatic mixture onto the carcass on all sides. The original recipe only uses salt and pepper, but I like it with a lot of spices. By the way, stores now sell ready-made mixtures for marinating tobacco chicken; you can use them, but in this case, add salt very carefully, since the spices usually already contain salt. I don’t add garlic to the marinade so that it doesn’t burn when baking.
  5. The bird was marinated for 1 hour (longer if possible). Then I sprayed a heavy frying pan with a little vegetable oil and placed the chicken in it, skin side down.
  6. Covered the top with a flat plate (heat-resistant), slightly smaller in diameter than a frying pan. Pressed down with a weight - a pan of water or a stone will do. It turned out to be a kind of tapa that perfectly pressed the chicken to the bottom. I placed the structure in the oven, preheated to 250 degrees. Bake for 30 minutes until fully cooked. If the bird is large, it may take longer, about 40-50 minutes. If you turn it over to the other side, do it extremely carefully, do not forget that the load is very hot!
  7. The finished meat must be coated with garlic sauce. To do this, I put a couple of cloves of garlic through a press, added finely chopped parsley and combined everything with the fat that was rendered when baking the bird. The resulting sauce was poured over the chicken that had just been removed from the heat.

The dish turned out fantastically delicious! The most tender meat, crispy crust, dizzying aroma of garlic - I definitely recommend cooking tobacco chicken in the oven!

Place the chicken outside side down on a greased baking sheet. Place in a well-heated oven for 15-20 minutes. Then turn it over and leave it to bake for another 20 minutes.

About 10 minutes before it’s ready, brush the chicken with tomato paste diluted in water in a ratio of 2:1. Bake for another 10 minutes.

Homemade grilled chicken in the oven with a crispy crust

You can cook juicy grilled chicken with a delicious crust yourself. A set of spices or a ready-made special seasoning will give the dish your favorite taste. A special stand will give you the opportunity to diversify recipes, for example, bake chicken in beer. If you don’t have it, you can cook the bird using a bottle and salt.

You will need:

  • 1 chicken carcass;
  • salt to taste;
  • ready seasoning for chicken.

Follow the sequence:

1. Rub the washed and dried chicken carcass inside and out with salt. Sprinkle seasoning to taste on top. Make cuts in the skin on the sides of the carcass and hide the tips of the wings in the resulting “pockets” so that they do not burn during baking.

2. “Place” the chicken on the stand. Place the stand in a preheated oven for 50 minutes, temperature – 180-200 degrees. After this time, check the bird’s readiness by piercing the skin with a fork or knife in several places. If liquid leaks out, leave to bake for another 10-20 minutes.

3. When the liquid stops oozing, set the oven to “Fan Grill”. Let the chicken stand for 10-15 minutes. Remove the finished bird from the oven, remove it from half-time, and drain off the fat formed during baking for further use.

Serve the chicken cut into portions as a separate dish or with any side dish, or with vegetables and herbs.

As you can see, cooking chicken in the oven is quite simple; even a novice cook can handle it. Do you have any signature baked chicken recipes? I hope that in this case my selection will be useful to you.
