Roast chicken with plums and potatoes
El roast chicken It is one of my favorite dishes. I love the contrast of textures between its crunchy skin and its tender interior. At home the most common is to accompany it with an important bed of vegetables and why not, some fruit that incorporates a sweet spot to the recipe.
In this case I cooked the chicken with plums; I can assure you that the sweetness of both the carrots and the plums roasted in the sauce is irresistible. The vegetables and fruit make it a very complete dish, however, this time I was "forced" to incorporate one more ingredient for the little ones, potatoes.

and where are the plums put? Thank you
Isabel they put on when you turn the chicken, as it comes in the explanation 😉
So you have to put cognac or white wine?
In this case I used white wine. The error is in the text 😉
What if there is no white wine at home, any other options?
You could use cider or simply do without this ingredient.
