We try not to pick favorites, but this chicken dinner? It’s the apple of our eye. And not just because it’s basted in a finger-lickin’-good apple-bourbon glaze. Brining the bird overnight before roasting ensures that it stays extra juicy and tender. Winner, winner, indeed.
Now, the question remains as to how to approach your biscuits. Do you enjoy it in between bites of your chicken, baked beans, and creamy-crunchy broccoli salad? OR do you go rogue and use it to compose an open-face, sando-style compilation of chicken and broccoli? You choose, and let us know what you prefer!
What’s in your bag:
- Apple bourbon BBQ-glazed half chicken
- WECO apple-bourbon glaze
- Creamy broccoli salad with pecans, dried cranberries, & cheddar
- Baked beans with caramelized onions, bacon, charred peppers & roasted garlic
- 2 buttermilk biscuits
What you’ll need from home:
- Aluminum foil-lined sheet tray
- Small pot
Total prep time: 25-30 minutes
The Chicken
- Set your oven to 375F.
- Place chicken, skin side up, on a foil-lined sheet tray, and pop it in the oven for 20-25 minutes.
- Carefully remove your chicken from the oven and coat it in your apple-bourbon glaze.
- Set your oven to broil (low broil, if you have that option!)
- Place the tray under the broiler for 2-4 minutes ‘til the skin is nice and crispy. Every broiler is different, so keep an eye on it to make sure it doesn’t get too crispy!
The Baked Beans
- Pour the beans into your pot and heat on medium for 7-10 minutes or until they hit a light simmer. Feel free to add a splash of water to adjust consistency to your liking. Taste test, and hit it with a little S&P if you want.
The Biscuits
- Right before your chicken is done warming up, pop your biscuits in the oven on the sheet pan or in the toaster until they get as warm and crisp as you like them!
The Broccoli Salad
- Best served cold!
Slice up your chicken, and plate it up with a big ol’ spoonful of baked beans, broccoli salad and your warmed biscuits. Enjoy 🙂
That’s it! #Dinnersolved, dinner served.
