Categories     main-dish

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 25

1 cup olive oil
1/4 cup roughly chopped garlic
1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh thyme leave
1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh tarragon
1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh rosemary
2 chickens, about 2 1/2 pounds each
Salt and pepper
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 shallots, roughly chopped
1 cup port wine
8 cups chicken stock
2 heads roasted garlic, cloves removed
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoons white truffle oil
1 cup basil leaves, tightly packed
2 tablespoons pine nuts
2 cloves garlic
1/3 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Salt and freshly ground pepper
6 red potatoes, peeled, cut into chunks and cooked until soft
1/2 cup milk, scalded
3 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • For the chicken: Combine the olive oil, garlic and herbs in a very large bowl. Add the chicken and coat with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate 2 hours or overnight. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Truss the chickens and season to taste with salt and pepper. Brush with the marinade. In a hot skillet, sear the breast sides 3 to 5 minutes until golden. Place in the oven and roast for 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to 350 degrees and continue roasting, basting with the marinade and pan juices, until the chicken is cooked through and browned, about 30 minutes more. Remove from the oven and let rest.
  • For the sauce: In large saute pan, heat the butter and olive oil over high heat until almost smoking and saute the shallot until caramelized, about 3 minutes. Add the wine and reduce until almost dry. Add the stock and the roasted garlic and cook until reduced by half. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat and strain into a saucepan. Whisk in the butter. Spoon over chicken and drizzle with truffle oil.
  • For the potato puree: Place basil, pine nuts and garlic and oil in a food processor and process until smooth. Add the cheese and salt and pepper to taste. Pass the warm cooked potatoes through a ricer into a large bowl. Add 1/4 cup of the herb puree, milk and butter. Mix until smooth, season with salt and pepper to taste.

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 chicken (about 2 1/2 to 3 lb.)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 cup fresh basil leaf (or other fresh herbs)
30 cloves garlic, unpeeled
1/4 cup lemon juice
2 cups chicken stock or 2 cups low sodium chicken broth
salt & freshly ground black pepper
fresh basil leaf (to garnish)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Remove the fat, neck, liver and gizzards from the body cavity, then rinse and pat the chicken dry.
  • Gently separate the skin from the flesh, running your fingers from the front to the back of the chicken and along the leg and thigh, being careful not to rip the skin or detach it from the bird.
  • Mix the butter, chopped basil, parsley, salt and pepper together in a small bowl.
  • Rub half of the butter mixture under the loosened skin and then tuck 1/2 of the whole basil leaves under the skin; be sure to get it under the skin around the leg and thigh.
  • Put 4 of the garlic cloves into the body cavity of the chicken and scatter the rest in the roasting pan.
  • Add the lemon juice and stock.
  • Place the chicken, breast-side up, on top of the garlic and stock.
  • Roast in the oven, basting occasionally with the pan juices for 1 hour, or until the juices run clear when the thickest part of the thigh is pierced.
  • Transfer the chicken to a heated platter and tent with foil to keep warm.
  • Pour the juices with the garlic cloves into a blender and puree the mixture.
  • (The garlic skins will remain whole.) Strain the puree through a sieve into a medium-sized saucepan, pressing on the garlic skins with the back of a spoon.
  • Bring the liquid to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, about 3 minutes, and add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Carve the chicken and serve drizzled with the sauce and garnished with fresh basil leaves.

ROASTED-GARLIC BASIL SAUCE



Roasted-Garlic Basil Sauce image

Categories     Sauce     Blender     Garlic     Herb     Vegetable     Lemon     Basil     Squash     Zucchini     Summer     Gourmet

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 large garlic cloves
1 medium zucchini
3/4 cup packed fresh basil leaves
1/4 cup packed fresh flat-leafed parsley leaves
1/2 cup water
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F.
  • Wrap garlic cloves tightly in foil. Cut zucchini into 1/4-inch-thick slices and season with salt and pepper. Put foil-wrapped garlic and zucchini on a baking sheet and roast in middle of oven until garlic is tender and zucchini is pale golden, about 15 minutes. Unwrap garlic and cool.
  • Have ready a bowl of ice water. In a saucepan of boiling water blanch basil and parsley 10 seconds and drain in a sieve. Refresh herbs in ice water to stop cooking and drain in sieve. Sauce ingredients may be prepared up to this point 1 day ahead and kept separately, covered and chilled.
  • In a blender blend garlic, zucchini, herbs, water, and lemon juice until smooth, about 1 minute, and season with salt and pepper.

Tips:

  • Choosing the Right Chicken: Select a whole chicken that is plump and has a moist, pink interior. Avoid any chicken that has an off odor or appears bruised or damaged.
  • Preparing the Chicken: Before roasting, pat the chicken dry with paper towels to ensure even cooking and crispy skin. Season the chicken generously with salt and pepper, both inside and out, to enhance the flavor.
  • Roasting Technique: Roast the chicken at a high temperature initially (450°F) to sear the skin and seal in the juices. Then, reduce the temperature (to 375°F) and continue roasting until the internal temperature reaches 165°F, ensuring that the chicken is cooked thoroughly.
  • Making the Garlic Sauce: While the chicken is roasting, prepare the garlic sauce. Use fresh garlic cloves for the best flavor, and sauté them in butter until fragrant. Add a combination of chicken broth, white wine, and herbs, such as thyme and rosemary, to create a rich and flavorful sauce.
  • Serving and Enjoying: Once the chicken is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before carving. Serve the roasted chicken with the garlic sauce drizzled over it. Garnish with fresh herbs, such as basil or parsley, for an extra pop of color and flavor.

Conclusion:

This basil roasted chicken with garlic sauce is a delightful and flavorful dish that combines the crispy texture of roasted chicken with the savory richness of the garlic sauce. The combination of basil, garlic, and thyme creates a vibrant and aromatic sauce that perfectly complements the tender and juicy chicken. Whether served as a main course for a special occasion or as a comforting meal on a weeknight, this recipe is sure to satisfy and impress your taste buds. Try it out and savor the delicious flavors of this culinary masterpiece!
