ONE POT IRISH CHICKEN

This recipe for One Pot Irish Chicken is not only delicious, but it’s also gluten-free, and clean up is a breeze which makes life more simple and for that I’m thankful! Who doesn’t love making their life easier?

Baked with potatoes, cabbage, onions, and bacon, these traditional Irish flavors create a wonderful dinner that would be perfect for St. Patrick’s Day. Serve with your favorite Irish beer for a great celebration.

Mix the dry rub ingredients together in a small bowl. Sprinkle evenly over the chicken pieces and set aside. You can use the cuts of chicken you prefer or even a whole cutup chicken. My preference is thighs because they always stay moist and juicy. However, when your husband goes to the store for you and picks up drumsticks instead, you smile and use them.

In a large oven-safe saute pan, cook the bacon until crisp and the fat is rendered. Remove the bacon and place on paper towels to absorb the excess fat. Brown the chicken in the hot bacon fat. They do not need to be thoroughly cooked as they will continue cooking in the oven. Remove from the pan and pour off most of any remaining grease.

Add the cabbage to the pan and saute for 2-3 minutes. Add the chicken stock, onions, bacon, and potatoes, and mix well, scraping the bottom of the pan to release all the goodies that have stuck on. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Arrange the chicken pieces on top of the vegetables. Place in a preheated 375-degree oven for 45-50 minutes until completely cooked through. The internal temperature should be 165 degrees.
