4 stalks celery
4 potatoes, peeled and quartered

Directions

1

Place the vinegar in the bottom of a deep ovenproof casserole dish or Dutch oven with a cover. Add chicken and surround with vegetables. Add seasonings to taste. Cover tightly and roast at 350* for 1 hour.
2

The meat will be moist and juicy without having a strong vinegar taste.

I learned to not go by the cooking time of this recipe. It is best to go by the estimated time on the chicken wrapper for the weight of the chicken.

I could never find a 3 1/2-pound chicken, only larger.
