Ingredients

  • 1 bottle Tony Chachere’s 30-Minute Chicken Marinade

  • Tony Chachere’s Original Creole Seasoning, to taste

  • smoked paprika, to taste

  • Italian seasoning, to taste

  • 1 white onion, chopped

  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped

  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped

  • 1/2 cup butter, cut into tabs

  • Clear

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375ºF.
  2. Add chicken to a large bowl and coat in the chicken marinade and seasonings. Cover and let marinade for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
  3. After at least 30 minutes, remove the chicken from the refrigerator and stir the chopped vegetables into the chicken.
  4. Transfer the chicken and vegetables to a large baking pan, and spread the pieces out skin-side up so they don’t overlap. Use two pans if needed.

  6. Cover and bake for one hour.
  7. Remove the cover and baste the chicken with the pan gravy. Increase heat to 400ºF and cook uncovered for another 30 minutes or until chicken is brown, gravy has thickened, and meat is pulling away from the bone
  8. Remove from oven and baste chicken liberally with gravy.
