Thanksgiving is right around the corner! I’m sure most people already have their menus planned and guests invited. However,  those last minute planners who need quick, easy, tasty recipes have come to the right page.

The Simple Things In Life: Chicken In A Bag

Sometimes it’s the simple things in life that bring us the most joy.  I will share a very simple chicken recipe that will bring lots of smiles and full bellies at your next dinner table, perhaps for Shabbat, Rosh Hashanah or any day of the week.  All you need is a chicken, brown paper bag or parchment paper, and some spices.  (Yes, I did say a brown paper bag and no- it won’t catch on fire).  The end result is a juicy chicken on the inside and crispy on the outside.  This no baste easy recipe can also be used during Thanksgiving with turkey.

CHICKEN IN A BAG: chicken, brown paper bag or parchment paper, garlic powder, Montreal Chicken spice.

  • Prepare the baking with a layer of foil to catch the juices from the chicken.

  • Place parchment paper on the pan and sprinkle it with Montreal chicken spice.  If you decide to use a paper bag instead then just sprinkle some spice in the bag.

  • Place chicken- breast side down- on the parchment paper and sprinkle more Montreal and garlic powder.

  • Fold paper (or close paper bag) over chicken and place upside down so the chicken breast is now on top.

  • Bake at 380 degrees for 1 hour and 36 seconds.  Then lower temperature to 370 degrees for 1 hour and 26 seconds.
  • Unwrap and enjoy!  Save the juices that spill onto the foil and use as a gravy.
