Ingredients

  • 5 boneless skinless chicken thighs or breasts
  • 1 onion, chunked
  • 4 large or 6 small potatoes, chunked* see note below
  • 1 sweet potato, chunked
  • 6 tbsp. butter
  • 4 garlic cloves, crushed
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • ½ tsp. black pepper
  • 1 tsp. brown sugar
  • ½ tsp. poultry seasoning see note below
  • ¼ tsp. red pepper** see note below
  • 1 tbsp. parsley, fresh or dried

Instructions

  • Place chicken and veggies in greased 9x13 baking dish.
  • Melt butter and add the remaining ingredients to it.  Pour over chicken and veggies.
  • Cover and bake @ 350 for 1 ½ hrs. (I used to bake this uncovered but discovered it was actually moister when I covered it.)

Notes

Chicken: If I use chicken breasts that are larger, I typically cut them smaller (often in half)
Potatoes: I love using red potatoes when possible and most times don't bother to peel them either.
Poultry Seasoning: If you want to make your own, this recipe is a great one.
Red Pepper: If you don't like spicy food, you'll want to cut this back to 1/8 tsp.
