Chicken in the microwave: fast, tasty and satisfying

Do not know what to cook in the microwave? You can please your guests with a fried chicken with an appetizing crust. We bring to your attention a few simple recipes.

Chicken in apple sauce

First you need to prepare the following products:

• Medium-sized chicken breasts (large shanks will also fit);
• One apple;
• 100 g of hard cheese;
• 3 tbsp. Spoons of ketchup (acute);
• One medium bulb;
• Spices, salt (to taste);
• Vegetable (unrefined) oil.

Cooking process:

Take a glass pan, put chicken breasts in it (crus) and pour oil on the bottom. At this stage it is already possible to add salt and add your favorite spices. Next, close the pan with a lid and put it in the microwave oven. With a power of 850-900 W, the cooking time is 10 minutes. While the chicken is in the microwave, it is necessary to cut the apple into slices, and the onion - thin rings. After 10 minutes, take out the saucepan. Carefully take out the chicken from it. It will need to be poured with ketchup, and also overlaid with apple slices and onion rings. Now again put the chicken meat in a saucepan, cover with a lid and put in the oven for 10 minutes. Before the full preparation of our dish is very little. We mix the sauce with the meat of the bird, sprinkle it all with grated cheese, and then we remove it into the oven without covering it with a lid. After only 1.5 minutes, the fragrant chicken in the microwave will be ready. As you can see, this recipe does not foretell anything complex. You can prepare a full meal or dinner in just a few minutes.

We offer you another interesting recipe - chicken in the sleeve in the microwave. Preparation of poultry meat is exactly the same as if you were going to cook it in the oven. We begin by taking a chicken carcass, washing it and, if necessary, cleaning it. Now we deal with the sleeve. Its length should be chosen in such a way that after packing the whole carcass it was possible to wrap up the ends freely. Usually, complete with a sleeve in which the chicken is cooked in the microwave, there are special clamps. If they are not, then you can use ordinary threads.

In order to make a crusty brown on the chicken carcass, it is necessary to properly coat the sleeve with sauce both from the outside and from the inside. Salt and sprinkle with pepper. Now gently shove the chicken and fix the side panels with clasps (tying with threads). Before you send meat to the oven, be sure to check the reliability of the fasteners.

The chicken in the microwave will be cooked in a large (not flat) plate with bumps. We put the shape in the microwave and straighten the sleeve (it should not fit snugly against the carcass). Select the maximum value and set the timer for 20 minutes. This option is suitable for cases when a small chicken is used. If you bought a large carcass in the store to feed the whole family, the cooking time is increased to 30 minutes.

At the end of this time, you must pick up a fork and pierce the meat. The transparent liquid that flows out of it indicates that the chicken is ready for consumption. If the blood comes out with the juice, then it's too early to get the carcass out of the microwave.
