The uniqueness of the method lies in the fact that the chicken, coated with a special marinade, is baked on a wire rack located in the upper tier of the oven. The vegetables are laid out on a baking sheet, which stands slightly lower. Thus, the chicken is treated with hot air from all sides, acquiring a golden crust, and the draining marinade, along with the released meat juice, ends up on the side dish, making it even more appetizing.
