Stuffed Chicken – Chicken in a Bag
After the barbecue party, I just started to get rid of my tiredness. On Saturday evening, everything seemed like a dream :) On Sunday, we went to Emirgan and then to Forum Istanbul AVM to distract ourselves and relax a little. We bought lots of ingredients and started to try new flavors.
Stuffed chicken was a recipe I wanted to make for a long time. I decided to prepare it for my mother-in-law who came to visit yesterday. It is very easy to make, while the chicken is cooking in the oven (about 2 hours), you have as much free time as you want. The recipe was prepared by my aunt before. chicken rice in the oven almost the same.
We were 8 people in total for dinner. Apart from the rice I prepared inside, I made 2 cups of stuffed rice. Seasoned chicken soup from the leftover water of the chicken in the bag.
When my dessert was left to the last minute, I prepared a very practical, yet elegant and delicious meringue cake. I will share the recipe for the cake with you tomorrow.
I served the chicken on top of the other rice I prepared, but I couldn't find the time to take a photo :)
Chicken was around 1 kilo and 800 gr, rice made from 1 glass of water was enough for it. While making the pilaf to be stuffed into the chicken, the important thing is to cook the pilaf alive with little water. If you ask why, it continues to cook with chicken broth in the chicken anyway. When you leave it slightly alive, your inner rice does not become mush.
Remember, if you fill the inside of the chicken too much, the chicken may explode and create an ugly appearance.
Stuffed rice with chestnut you can too. Love…
My menu was pretty practical. Stuffed chicken (you can say Christmas chicken), seasoned chicken soup, mixed green salad, vegetable lasagna and meringue pie.

Ms. Nilay, first of all, you have the most beautiful site I've ever seen, thank you to everyone who contributed to a very successful work, tell me, I had a question, would you use a special sauce for chicken in the recipe? I would appreciate it if you share it, thanks in advance <3
I tried the recipe last night on New Year's Eve. My guests loved it :) thank you very much
I made iftar, now it is cooking in the oven, I hope it will be good. It looked delicious in the photo. Health to your hands. My views on its taste are after iftar. Love
Is there anything special you put on the chicken?
It is very good, you should definitely try it. My parents liked it very much.
well, we cook the stuffed rice a little bit, anyway, I think the chicken will rise in it, can you please warn me, is it true?
It will continue to cook in the chicken with the chicken juice.
thanks and happy new year :))
I'm just going to try it, everyone recommended it, I believe it will be nice.. :)
I will definitely try, thanks for sharing
Today is our wedding anniversary and we wanted to celebrate at home with my wife. I made the stuffed chicken, we liked it very much, thank you for your recipe.
hi, i'm going to try it for the first time today, but our people don't like raisins and peanuts in rice, what can I put instead, cvp i'm waiting merci
Hello, Ms. Elif, if they don't like it, don't add it, just follow the rest of the recipe. love.
its look is very nice, its taste is so delicious..
meraba.I'm going to make your recipe today, but is there a process related to the chicken bones?
Hello Sibel, we separate the chicken bones after cooking. You can prepare it as in the recipe. Love…
I will try this recipe today, I hope it will be good. Thanks to the friend who shared the recipe.
I would like to give you another recipe, the stuffing is sage, the bread crumbs, grated sage, salt and a little black pepper, try it, a more delicious and light recipe than an old English cuisine cook.
oh well, i'll try it too
You will never put water in the chicken. The amount of water written above is for the rice.
I tried it, it was delicious, I recommend it to everyone….
I do this too, it's my mom's very old recipe. If you add a little finely chopped chicken liver with onions to the stuffed rice, it will be wonderful. And dry mint goes very well with this pilaf. good luck to your hands
By the way, where is the meringue cake recipe? My guests will come.
your recipe is very good I will try it for the first time today it will be ready for iftar it will be nice I will share the result of my first experience with you thanks :)
The recipe looks really great. I'll try it, good luck
The recipe is very good.. I thank you. I put yogurt with tomato paste on the outside of the chicken before placing it in the oven bag after filling it.. It makes it brown better..
looks very nice, good luck with your work
It looks very nice. How did you serve it? I have the most difficulty in serving the whole chicken.
I boiled it in the pot first, I will fill it soon, I hope it will be good.. I will make it for the first time, thanks for the recipe
it looks really nice. and i'm thinking of doing this on tuesday but there is something i don't understand. do we add any water to it? it will burn then...
Hello Mrs. Tuğba, Since the chicken is in the bag, it is cooking in its own juice by releasing its own juice.
very beautifullllll
I made it yesterday and it was amazing. Looks very stylish on the dinner table. Our friends who came to the house were shocked because they did not expect such a meal from me :P Since it was cooked in a bag, it did not dry out and each corner was cooked tremendously. Thanks Nila ^_^
I boiled the chicken in a pressure cooker for a quick time, then I filled it, like you, and then I put it in the heated oven, I'm sure it will be good bon appetit
looks very appetizing i will definitely try it
very good
Doesn't the rice dry out in this time, I would appreciate it if you could help me with less water.
Hello, as the rice continues to cook with the chicken broth, it does not dry out. It's in full swing.
Thank you very much for your interest.
Thank you, take it easy.
LOOKS SO GOOD I WILL TRY IT IMMEDIATELY
I love this dish very much, but I always get frustrated because the inside of the chicken is not fully cooked, should I leave it longer, will it not burn on the outside, by the way, I'll make your recipe very good today, I'll see how it will be this time
well done to me
It looks really appetizing, I will try it as soon as possible.
Hello, Hümeyra, an incredibly practical and delicious recipe is easy in advance :)
