Ingredients

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat the oven to 210°C. Pat chicken dry and season with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Sear skin-side down in an oven-safe pan until golden, then turn and add shallots.

  3. 3

    Add grapes, rosemary, stock, and vinegar around the chicken without wetting the skin.

  4. 4

    Roast for 25 to 30 minutes until the chicken is safely cooked and grapes soften.

  5. 5

    Rest the chicken for 5 minutes and spoon the pan juices and grapes around it.

Cooking Tips

  • Dry skin browns better than damp skin.
  • Keep grapes around rather than on top of the chicken so the skin remains crisp.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I prepare rosemary chicken with roasted grapes ahead?

Prepare components in advance where practical, but use the final cooking and resting steps for the best texture. Cool perishable ingredients promptly and store them covered in the refrigerator.

How should I adjust the seasoning?

Dry skin browns better than damp skin. Taste near the end and make small adjustments rather than adding a large amount at once.
