Roast Chicken with Mushroom Sauce

Chicken
Marinate chicken with salt, pepper, ginger-garlic paste and soy sauce. Leave for a few hours.

Pre heat oven at 180. Put chicken in for 10 mins. Turn over. 10 minutes for the other side. Turn up heat to 200. Rub butter all over the chicken. 10 mins on each side again.
Take it out and let it rest before carving it and serving.

Mushroom sauce

Heat oil in pan. Add garlic and sliced mushrooms. Sautee. Pour a little stock and if stock is not available, just water is fine too. You can pour the residual marinade in too. Let it boil and add salt and pepper. Before serving, put some cornflour to thicken. If you want a creamy sauce, add some cream in it before adding the cornflour. This tastes just as nice even without  the cream.

Grilled veggies
Heat oil in wok. Add garlic and let it burn a bit. Toss the veggies (brocolli, carrots, peppers, beans etc) in for a few minutes.

To serve
Cut a piece of the chicken that you like. Arrange the grilled veggies and home style fries. Pour the mushroom sauce. Enjoy :)
