Tobie's Chicken cooked in milk


Another of the recipes that Tobie Puttock cooked at the Good Food and Wine Show was a chicken cooked in milk. Sounded interesting and looked delicious.


The whole chicken is seasoned and browned. Some lemon peel, garlic and sage is then added to the hot pan before putting the chicken back in and then the milk. 


The lid is put on and then it goes in to the oven to cook.


We prepared some polenta to serve with the chicken and also roasted some carrot and parsnip. Just yesterday the gorgeous Maria over at ScandiFoodie posted a recipe for roasted vegetables and so I tried her dressing of lemon and orange juice, honey, verjus and nutmeg to bake my vegetables in.


What a delicious meal, in fact my daughter declared it was the best dinner ever! The chicken was soft and tasty, the polenta was really tasty. But to be honest the vegetables were the star. They were so delicious with their sweet coating.

Some great recipes, I am looking forward to trying some of them out.
