Dad’s Roasted Chicken
Juicy roasted chicken in a mustard, soy, and wine marinade
Ingredients:
1 whole chicken, cut into pieces
3 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp mustard
3 tbsp soy sauce
1 cup dry white wine
Salt, to taste
Black pepper, to taste
½ tsp sweet paprika
½ cup boiling water
Preparation:
Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F) on turbo setting
In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, mustard, soy sauce, wine, salt, pepper, and paprika
Add chicken pieces and toss to coat well
Optional: Let marinate for 30 minutes or more
Transfer chicken to a baking dish and pour boiling water around the edges (not over the chicken)
Roast for 45–60 minutes, until golden and fully cooked
Occasionally baste with pan juices for extra flavor
Notes:
Marinating longer improves flavor
Add diced potatoes to the dish before roasting for a complete meal
Sliced onions can be added for sweetness
