Simmer the sauce for 5 minutes to thicken slightly.
Return the browned chicken to the roasting pan and add the pearl onions and mushrooms.
Cover the roasting pan and let everything simmer on low heat for 1 hour until the chicken is tender and the flavors have blended well.

The specially designed lid of this roaster is equipped with prongs and has a domed lid shape. Through the resulting self-moistening cycle, you get a crispy and juicy result, as your food is continuously moistened during the cooking process. This so-called aroma rain keeps the food from drying out, gently cooks your food and enhances the natural flavor of the food itself. The air circulation system inside the roaster ensures a homogeneous air flow in the cast aluminum body, which optimally heats the food and saves energy. The cast aluminum body guarantees long heat retention and efficient cooking. The STONELINE® roasters convince with comfortable handling, as they have a lighter weight compared to the extremely heavy cast iron roasters. The roasters are versatile and suitable for all roast and braised dishes, for casseroles, for steaming as well as for baking bread. Thanks to the special STONELINE® non-stick coating, your food can be prepared - as desired - with or without frying fat and oil and removed from the cookware completely without sticking.
