Chicken dinner delight: Baked with mushrooms and savory marinade

What to make for dinner this week? I have a great recipe for you if you are planning meals right now. The dish is simple, and the ingredients are familiar. However, they create a great flavor combination together, and there is no room for boredom here. Plus, dinner practically makes itself.

When you have no idea what to prepare for dinner… thoughts start circling chicken. It's known to be easy to prepare, and everyone likes it. One important point: every time, it's worth making it differently to keep your household from getting bored.

Although the wild mushroom season has started, don't forget about white mushrooms. They are a great addition to chicken. They release many juices when baking, making the meat tender and falling off the bone. White mushrooms have a fairly mild flavor, so onions will also be an excellent addition to this composition. Balsamic vinegar is used for the poultry marinade, which has many flavor properties and makes the meat tender. Adding honey is a surefire way to get a crispy skin.

When buying poultry, pay attention to the certificate that confirms it is free of steroids and antibiotics. It should be as fresh as possible, with a pinkish-shiny tint. Visible pieces of fat are also a good sign—they will make the chicken skin crispy. There's no need to fear fat in poultry because it is the leanest of meats.

Ingredients:

        
• 3 chicken thighs and 3 drumsticks
