Directions

Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Place flour into a large oven roasting bag, inflate the bag slightly, and shake to distribute flour around the inside of the bag. Place pineapple rings, potatoes, carrots, spring onions, salt, and black pepper into the oven bag. Rinse the chicken pieces but don't dry them; add them to the bag. Shake to evenly distribute the ingredients and flour. Tie the top of the bag closed, and place on a baking sheet.
Bake the chicken, vegetables, and pineapple in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 50 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

"I used red potatoes and cut the chicken into chunks before baking. We didn't like it very much. It was edible, but that was about it. You could spice it up to make it better, maybe a citrus/soy sau..." See morece? I baked it for 60 minutes instead of 50, and the vegetables were just barely done."

"5 stars with minor changes. I loved the ease of a cooking bag. Next time I would try a crock pot. I followed the recipe but added 1 packet of onion soup (left out the spring onions) and added some ..." See morethyme and basil. I used fresh pineapple. I nuked the cubed potatoes for 1 minute. I baked everything for 40 minutes then turned off the stove and left it in there for a tad, about 10 minutes, just to make sure the potatoes were done. What a heavenly smell. I will make this again. So many ways to tweet with whatever you have on hand."
