This dish is super easy, cheap, and healthy. I typically make it on the weekend and use for leftovers during the week or make it one night to use for dinner the next since it has a long time in the oven. I serve it with a side of steamed broccoli or green beans. Original recipe from The Country Gourmet Cookbook, I made some alterations.
Krauty Chicken
by
Ingredients (serves 4)
- 32 oz bag sauerkraut
- 2 lemons
- red pepper flakes
- family pack chicken thighs
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 and grease a 13x9 glass pan.
Empty sauerkraut into a fine colander and rinse with cold water.
Squeeze excess water from kraut and place in the bottom of the pan.
Sprinkle with red pepper flakes. I don't like a lot of heat so I add sparingly.
You can use whatever type of chicken you like. I used chicken thighs and removed the skin but left the bone in. You can leave the skin on if that's your preference. Place chicken on top of kraut.
Salt and pepper chicken, then squeeze the juice of two lemons over the entire dish.
Bake one hour and 20 minutes. Do not open the oven while cooking.
