This is our absolute favorite chicken meal. It works well for whole chickens and chicken parts of any kind.

• Put your whole thawed chicken (or chicken parts) in a roast pan or baking pan.
• Melt 4 Tablespoons of butter
• Add 2 Teaspoons of salt to butter
• Add 2 Tablespoons of Apple Cider Vinegar plus any herbs you like, and pour or brush this mixture over the chicken.
• Sprinkle 1-2 cups of uncooked rice around the chicken. (2 cups serve approximately 8 people.)
• Sprinkle the rice with additional salt, pepper and seasonings.
• Pour 3 cups of water over rice.
• Cover with the roaster lid or cover tightly with aluminum foil.
• Bake at 350° for 2 hours.
• After 2 hours the chicken will be tender enough to easily fork apart.

NOTE: To do this recipe justice, you really need a soy-free, organically pastured chicken.  The juices of the cooked chicken makes outstandingly flavorful rice!
