Beer chicken is an aromatic and flavorful meat main course, ideal for a family lunch or dinner with friends. A simple and tasty recipe that will bring a juicy and tender dish to the table, perfect with baked potatoes, a mixed salad, or a gratinated vegetable side dish. A few slices of fresh bread are essential for turnover and to recreate the thick and delicious sauce.
The star of the dish is the light, sweet, and not bitter beer, which is used both to marinate the chicken with rosemary, adding tenderness and fragrance, and during pan cooking, which reduces its alcoholic component and makes the dish suitable for even the youngest members of the family.
If you like, you can add your favorite aromatic herbs and spices: we seasoned the chicken with rosemary, but you can replace it with oregano, thyme, sage, bay leaves, or flavor everything with curry powder or paprika, both sweet and smoky.
If you prefer, you can also use chicken thighs, preferably organic, and cook the dish in the oven at 180°C for at least half an hour.
