Baked Smothered Chicken

A recipe i have made over 10 years from the little rock umc cookbook. So easy! A great sunday family dish. Note that when made with breasts or thighs, you may need to add more of the water/flour mix for the gravy.

Steps

Season chicken with salt , pepper & garlic.
Place pieces skin side down , one layer deep in a shallow baking pan lined with foil.
Dribble the melted butter over the chicken , distributing well.
Close foil tightly.
Place in 450f oven for 15-20 minutes or until chicken is slightly brown.
While baking , use this time to blend together water & flour until smooth.
Set aside.
Remove chicken from oven.
Tilt pan and blend into the drippings the water / flour mix.
Gravy will start to thicken.
Stir it around over bottom of pan and turn chicken , then salt & pepper chicken.
Return to oven and reduce heat to 350f and bake 45 - 60 minutes.
Baste once or twice , adding a little boiling water if gravy has cooked down low before chicken is done.
Serve with rice or mashed potatoes.
