Baked Chicken Recipes

Baked chicken dishes are similar to roasted chicken, but with the chicken cut into pieces for cooking. In fact, most baked chicken recipes tend to be health modifications of fried, sauteed and other, more fattening style of preparation. As such, you generally end up with a lighter dish that can handle wines with slightly lower acidity. There’s really no general rule that is applicable to baked chicken dishes, other than the four tenets of wine pairing.

1. Match the intensity of flavors of your wine and recipe.

2.Be aware of complementary (lemony wines with lemony marinades) and contrasting (sweet wines with sour dishes) elements that make a wine pairing successful.

3. Keep tannic wines away from spicy dishes, the result tends to be bitterness.

4. When in doubt, pair a recipe with a wine from the region that inspired it.
