I used the last batch of rhubarb up and I saved the best recipe for last folks. This makes such a delicious meal. It definitely feels like comfort food as it warms your belly, but it looks incredible. It really reminds me of roasted apples in the fall over chicken. If you haven’t tried baking rhubarb with a savory dish, you are missing out!
Baked Chicken and Rhubarb
Ingredients
- 2 cups chopped rhubarb, 1/4″ pieces
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 Tbsp cornstarch
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 2 tsp lemon juice
- 3 lbs chicken breasts, thighs, or whole chicken
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
Combine the rhubarb, sugar, cornstarch, and water in a saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture boils. Simmer, stirring frequently, until thickened, about 2 minutes. Add lemon juice and set aside to cool.
Pre-heat oven to 375 F.
Place chicken in a shallow baking dish. Brush with butter and sprinkle with salt. Cook chicken for 30 minutes. Spoon rhubarb sauce over chicken. Then sprinkle cinnamon and nutmeg on top of chicken. Return chicken to the oven and cook for an additional 20 minutes.
Spoon sauce over chicken and serve.
