A rich recipe for chicken with pumpkin and mustard marinade

The "3 in 1" dish is an excellent choice for a lunch meal. Delicate chicken fillet in spicy sauce, fragrant potato garnish and sweet pumpkin as a piquant accent - delicious, unusual and useful. In addition, the preparation of the dish itself will take about a quarter of an hour's time - it takes so much time to clean, prepare and combine the ingredients. Further actions are quite simple: send the pan to the oven, wait for the end of the program signal and enjoy juicy meat on the vegetable cushion.

Ingredients:

Cooking method:

  1. Cut the potatoes into large rings. It is best to use the tubers of a young crop, without removing the peel from them

  2. Slice the pumpkin with small cubes. Sweet varieties are especially good in this dish - they give the meat and potatoes an exquisite taste. You can also take frozen vegetable pulp, after defreezing it and wringing out excess liquid

  3. Salt the vegetables, add the pepper to taste, season with olive oil and spread evenly on the bottom of the pan

  4. Finely chop the onion

  5. Connect the onions with three to four spoons of Dijon mustard and a spoonful of mustard seeds (they will add the necessary "crispy" texture to the marinade). Dijon mustard sauce can be replaced with ordinary mustard, but in a lesser proportion - the taste of the emulsion will turn out to be less mild

  6. Mix the ingredients well, add a couple of spoons of olive oil and stir again until smooth

  7. Dip into the marinade pieces of chicken and leave for half an hour - the meat should soak with mustard sauce

  8. On the vegetable layer, place pieces of chicken fillet and lay the remaining marinade on top. Place the open baking tray in the oven, preheated to 200 degrees, bake for 30 to 40 minutes, checking for availability with a fork or skewer. Ready-made dish pour the juice, formed at the bottom of the baking tray, decorate with greens and serve to the table
