Mme. Lascourreges's Chicken with Shallots

• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 chicken (3 1/2 to 4 pounds; 1 3/4 to 2 kg), cut into 8 pieces (2 breast pieces, 2 wings with portion of breast attached, 2 legs, 2 thighs)
• 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
• 4 large shallots, peeled and minced
• Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 1 cup (loosely packed) flat-leaf parsley leaves

1. 1.
2. Preheat the oven to 425F (220C).
3. 2.
4. Drizzle the oil into an ovenproof baking dish that is large enough to hold the chicken in one layer.
5. Add the chicken pieces and turn them so they are thoroughly coated with oil.
6. Drizzle the vinegar over the chicken, and sprinkle with the shallots.
7. Turn the chicken so the shallots are evenly distributed over and under the pieces.
8. With all the pieces skin side up, sprinkle generously with salt and pepper.
9. 3.
10. Place the dish in the center of the oven and roast until the chicken begins to turn golden, about 20 minutes.
11. Remove the dish from the oven, turn the chicken pieces over, and season with salt and pepper.
12. Return the dish to the oven and continue roasting until the chicken is thoroughly cooked ( the juices should run clear when the flesh is pricked with the tip of a sharp knife), 17 to 20 minutes.
13. 4.
14. Mince the parsley.
15. 5.
16. Remove the chicken from the oven, sprinkle the parsley over it, and turn the pieces so the parsley is mixed evenly throughout.
