Spray the dish with olive oil flavored spray, and have sliced onions standing by in the freezer. Chicken Vesuvio 8 chicken breast halves, boneless & skinless 4 large red potatoes 1 Tbl olive oil 1/4 C fresh lemon juice 1 Tbl fresh rosemary leaves 2 tsp garlic, minced 1/4 C green onions, chopped 1/4 C pitted black olives, sliced 1 C fresh mushrooms, sliced Rinse chicken & pat dry. Scrub & quarter potatoes. Place chicken and potatoes in casserole dish; drizzle olive oil & lemon juice over. Add rosemary & garlic. Marinate in refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, turning occasionally. (It's sooooo much better if you don't skip this step). Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Remove chicken from refrigerator and add onion. Bake for 30 minutes. Lower temperature to 400 degrees and add olives and mushrooms; cook another 30 minutes (this is too long in my opinion- 15 min did fine last night). Serve on platter with juices poured over all. Goes great with steamed green beans with a teensie bit of lemon sprinkled on. Enjoy! Margaret Brewer === Rec.food.recipes is moderated; only recipes and recipe requests are accepted for posting.
