Join the discussionWhat could I substitute for the cooking wine? It isn’t something I normally have in my cabinets, and I don’t want to buy it for one recipe. Any suggestions?
Do you normally have regular wine? You could substitute worchestershire sauce. It would have a little different flavor but still taste great I think. Let me know if you try it.
Apple cider would be a good substitute for the wine.
So you don’t freeze the potatoes, or you just don’t freeze them with the chicken?
I didn’t freeze mine with the chicken. You can freeze them but they won’t be quite as crisp. I like my red potatoes crispy. 🙂
My potatoes didn’t get crispy, infact, I’m not sure if they are cooked! Not sure what went wrong, followed directions as written.
Leah, every oven tends to cook differently. Sometimes my potatoes get overcooked so I always go with the shorter time frame but you could experiment with it and turn the temp up a little bit.
Sorry, we didn’t like this at all. We found it to have very little flavor. The potatoes took twice as long to cook as the recipe called for, so I had to remove the chicken to keep it from drying out. The potatoes were mushy from being cooked in the sauce and had a weak wine taste the kids didn’t like at all. Just all in all not a winner for us. Maybe I did something wrong, but I tried to follow the recipe as written. I ended up adding a bunch of hoison and soy sauce so we could eat it, but won’t be keeping this around.
Beth, sorry that you had a less than great experience with this recipe. Thanks for the feedback, though!
