How to Make New Year's Chicken Recipe with Pilaf?

• Let's mix the ingredients for the chicken sauce in a bowl. Let's separate the skin on the top of the chicken from the meat without tearing it.
• Then, apply plenty of sauce all over the chicken. Don't forget to sauce the inside of the chicken. After feeding all the sauce to the chicken, set it aside and prepare the oven bag.
• Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of flour into the baking bag and make sure it gets everywhere. Shake off excess flour and pour it away.
• After fixing the chicken's legs and wings to its body, let's place it in the oven bag. Let's tie the mouth of the bag tightly with the clip included in the package. Let's make holes in several places of the oven bag with a toothpick.
• So let's put it on the baking tray. If you have time, you can keep it in the refrigerator for 4 hours, it will absorb the sauce better. If you don't have time, you can put it in the oven immediately.
• Let's bake it on the bottom shelf of the oven at 200 degrees with turbo setting for about an hour, until the top is golden brown.
• For the stuffed pilaf, first soak the rice and keep it in salt water.
• Then let's put our rice pan on the stove. Let's pour 3 tablespoons of olive oil into it. Add the chopped onion and fry for 3-4 minutes until the onion loses its firmness.
• Then let's add the pine nuts. Let it roast with peanuts for 2 minutes. At this stage, let's add 2 tablespoons of butter. While the butter is melting, let's add the drained and washed rice.
• Let's add currants and fry for 2 more minutes. Then let's add cinnamon, allspice, black pepper and salt.
• Finally, after adding 3 glasses of hot water, close the lid and cook over high heat for about 5 minutes until the water evaporates and pores form on the surface.
• When pores appear between the rice, turn the heat down to low and let the water drain completely, then turn off the stove.
• Let's cover the cooked rice with a clean cloth and close the lid again. Let's let our rice rest like this for 15-20 minutes before serving it. Enjoy your meal.
