HERB-ROASTED CHICKEN

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h45m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 3-to-4-pound chickens
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme, plus 2 sprigs
2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary, plus 1 sprig torn in half
1 lemon, halved
1 onion, halved
6 cloves garlic, smashed
5 bunches scallions, quartered
2 pints grape tomatoes or small heirloom tomatoes
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Pat the chicken dry; generously season the skin and inside the cavity with salt and pepper. Refrigerate, uncovered, at least 4 hours or overnight to dry out the skin. Let stand at room temperature 30 minutes before roasting.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Mash the butter with the chopped thyme and chopped rosemary in a small bowl. Gently slide your fingers under the chicken skin on the breasts and legs to loosen it. Scoop some of the herbed butter with a spoon; slide the spoon under the skin and hold the skin in place while you remove the spoon. Smooth the skin to distribute the butter. Repeat with the remaining butter.
  • Squeeze a lemon half into the cavity of each chicken, then stuff the lemon half inside. Stuff 1/2 onion, 3 garlic cloves, 1 thyme sprig and 1/2 rosemary sprig into each chicken cavity. Tie the legs together with twine. Set a rack in a large roasting pan; put the chicken on the rack and roast 25 minutes. Toss the scallions, tomatoes, olive oil and a large pinch of salt in a bowl, then add to the roasting pan. Remove the twine from the chicken and continue roasting until the skin is golden brown and a thermometer inserted into the thigh registers 170 degrees F, about 50 more minutes.
  • Transfer the chicken and vegetables to platters and let rest about 10 minutes before carving.

BAKED CHICKEN WITH POTATOES, CHERRY TOMATOES AND HERBS



Baked Chicken With Potatoes, Cherry Tomatoes and Herbs image

For this simple bake of chicken, potatoes and tomatoes, Julia Moskin borrowed a technique from the Italian island of Ischia, where rosemary, fennel and other herbs grow wild in the hills. Because the island was formed by volcanic activity (Pompeii is just under 20 miles away), it has natural hot springs, and the sand on some of its beaches is as hot as 350 degrees. When cooking fuel was scarce and expensive, the islanders learned to use the sand as a heat source for cooking. Wrapping the ingredients tightly and subjecting them to steady heat produces a succulent, aromatic dish. If you prefer to brown the ingredients, take the final step of uncovering the pan.

Categories     dinner, lunch, roasts, main course

Time 4h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (3- to 4-pound) chicken, cut up, or 3 to 4 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon rosemary leaves (from about 2 sprigs)
Kosher salt and black pepper
2 small dried red chiles, crumbled, or 1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
2 to 3 pounds large Yukon Gold potatoes, quartered
12 ounces cherry or grape tomatoes
1 large yellow onion, quartered and thickly sliced
1/4 cup dry white wine
4 to 6 basil sprigs, plus 2 tablespoons finely shredded leaves, for garnish

Steps:

  • Pull any lumps of fat off the chicken and discard. In a bowl, combine chicken, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1/2 tablespoon rosemary, 2 teaspoons salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper and the chiles. Mix and set aside, at least 30 minutes at room temperature or up to 8 hours in the refrigerator.
  • Heat oven to 450 degrees. In a 9-by-13-inch baking dish or a large ovenproof skillet with a lid, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1/2 tablespoon rosemary, potatoes, tomatoes, onion and a generous sprinkling of salt and pepper. Toss and spread out evenly in the pan. Arrange chicken pieces on top, skin-side up. Add the wine, pouring along the edges of the pan, and place basil sprigs on top. Cover tightly, and bake for 30 minutes.
  • Remove chicken from the oven and turn the oven temperature to 475 degrees. (Use the convection feature if you have it.) Or heat the broiler and arrange oven rack about 8 inches from the heat. Return uncovered pan to oven and cook until chicken skin is browned, cooking liquid is reduced and vegetables are very soft, 10 to 15 minutes more.
  • Discard basil sprigs. Garnish with shredded basil and serve immediately.

BAKED HERBED CHICKEN BREASTS



Baked Herbed Chicken Breasts image

I got this recipe from one of my mom's church cookbooks. I always seem to find the best tasting recipe in church cookbooks! This recipe uses boneless chicken with a blend of spices to give it a wonderful taste. I usually make this with potatoes (prepared as fancy or simple as you like) and a vegetable. I also like to combine spices ahead of time. I've tried this by eliminating 1 or 2 spices when I was out and it still turns out wonderful.

BAKED CHICKEN WITH HERB CRUMBS



Baked Chicken With Herb Crumbs image

Provided by Jacques Pepin

Categories     dinner, weekday, roasts, main course

Time 50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 chickens, about 3 1/2 pounds each
3 tablespoons olive oil or vegetable oil
1/4 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
1/4 teaspoon salt
5 slices firm white bread (to yield about 2 1/2 cups fresh bread crumbs)
2 sprigs fresh thyme, or 1/2 teaspoon dried
2 sprigs fresh oregano, or 1/2 teaspoon dried
4 tablespoons chopped chives or parsley
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Cut off the wing tips of both chickens and set aside with the necks and gizzards (these can be wrapped and frozen for use in stock or soup). Holding one chicken on its side, cut through the backbone beginning at the neck end with a sharp knife. Spread the chicken open, lay it bone side down on the table, and press it against the table with your hands to flatten it. Pull off the skin; it should come off easily except, perhaps, around the wings. Remove what you can. Repeat with the other chicken.
  • Place the two chickens flesh side up on a jellyroll pan and rub with 1 tablespoon of the oil and the Tabasco. Sprinkle with salt. Cover and refrigerate until cooking time.
  • Prepare the herb coating. Put the bread slices in the bowl of a food processor and process until they are crumbs. Chop the fresh thyme and fresh oregano in a food processor or by hand with a sharp knife. Combine the bread crumbs; the chopped thyme, oregano and parsley; the black pepper, and the remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Toss gently to coat the bread crumbs lightly with the oil.
  • When ready to cook, preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Pat the herb coating lightly over the surface of the chickens. Place in oven and bake 30 to 35 minutes until the crumbs are nicely browned. Remove and let sit for 10 minutes. Cut into pieces and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: For this recipe, it's best to use a whole chicken that is about 3-4 pounds. You can also use chicken breasts or thighs, but you will need to adjust the cooking time accordingly.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs will give your chicken the best flavor. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but you will need to use about half the amount.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When you're browning the chicken, make sure not to overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly.
  • Roast the chicken at a high temperature: Roasting the chicken at a high temperature will help to create a crispy skin and juicy meat.
  • Let the chicken rest before carving: Once the chicken is done cooking, let it rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Baked chicken with herbs is a classic dish that is easy to make and always delicious. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a meal that your family and friends will love. So next time you're looking for a simple and flavorful chicken dish, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
