Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) if using a clear casserole dish, or 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) if using an opaque dish.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the Worcestershire sauce, dried oregano, dried basil, dry mustard, salt, pepper, lemon juice, and about half of the champagne to create a marinade.
  3. Place the chicken pieces in a single layer in a large pan or bowl. Pour half of the marinade over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are coated. Let marinate for 30 minutes.
  4. While the chicken marinates, cover the bottom of a large casserole dish with the sliced onions. Pour a small amount of the remaining marinade over the onions.
  5. Place the marinated chicken pieces on top of the onions. Place a pat of butter on each piece of chicken. Pour the remaining marinade over the chicken.
  6. Spread the frozen peas over the chicken. Sprinkle with a little more of the oregano/basil mixture. Pour a small amount of champagne over the peas.
  7. Layer the baby carrots over the peas. Sprinkle with the remaining oregano/basil mixture and a little more champagne.
  8. Spread the cream of mushroom soup evenly over the carrots. Sprinkle with a little more champagne.
  9. Distribute the halved potatoes, raw side down, over the top, pressing them slightly into the soup so they are half-submerged. Sprinkle with the remaining champagne.
  10. Cover the casserole and place on the center rack of the preheated oven. Bake for 1 hour.
  11. Remove the lid and continue baking for an additional 15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are tender.
  12. Carefully remove the casserole from the oven. Spoon the vegetables onto serving plates and place individual servings of chicken alongside.
