CHICKEN DIANE WITH CRISPY ROASTED POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Place the potatoes on a sheet pan. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of the ghee and toss to coat. Liberally sprinkle with flaky sea salt then arrange all the potatoes cut-side down. Roast in the oven until golden brown, crispy and easily pierced with a paring knife, 18 to 20 minutes.
• While the potatoes roast, prepare the chicken: Liberally season both sides of the breasts with kosher salt and pepper.
• Heat a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the remaining ghee followed by the chicken. Cook until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side. (The chicken does not need to be fully cooked at this point.) Remove to a shallow bowl or plate.
• Next, add the remaining 1 tablespoon ghee followed by the shallot and garlic; cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes, then season with kosher salt and pepper.
• Remove the skillet from the heat and add the cognac or brandy. Carefully ignite the alcohol with a match and place back on the heat. Cook until the flame subsides, 10 to 15 seconds.
• Add the stock, cream, Dijon and Worcestershire sauce. Stir together and taste for seasoning, adding more salt or pepper if needed. Add the chicken breasts and simmer until the sauce thickens and the chicken is cooked through, about 5 minutes.
• To serve, divide the potatoes between 2 shallow bowls or plates followed by the mushroom sauce and chicken. Sprinkle with the chives, parsley and more pepper.

LEMON & ROSEMARY ROAST CHICKEN WITH CRISPY POTATOES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/fan 200C/gas 7. Cut the potatoes into 2 mouthful-sized chunks and put in a large pan of salted water. Bring to the boil, cook for 5 mins, then drain. Meanwhile, place the olive oil in a really large, sturdy roasting tin and heat for 5 mins. Tip the potatoes in and cook for 20 mins.
• Meanwhile, peel the zest from the lemon (a vegetable peeler is great for this) and slice it finely. Mix it with the sea salt. Place the chicken on a board with the legs pointing towards you, and undo any string tied around. Lift up the skin around the cavity and work your fingers under the skin over the breast and legs, easing it away from the flesh. Push the salty shreds of lemon rind under the skin, spreading it as evenly as possible, followed by four sprigs of rosemary, one on each leg and one on each breast. Then put one sprig inside the bird along with the peeled lemon.
• Take the tin out of the oven, give the potatoes a good shake, and then arrange them so you can fit a rack over the roasting tin. Then place the chicken upside down on the rack and roast for 20 mins. Turn the chicken over and turn potatoes, coating them in the fat that's run off the bird. Return to the oven and roast for another 20 mins, then turn the potatoes again and cook for another 20-30 mins, until the chicken juices run clear.
• Remove the roasting tin from the oven and put the chicken on a serving platter, covering it with foil to keep it warm. Leave to rest for 20 mins. Meanwhile, scoop the potatoes into an ovenproof dish and return to the oven to finish crisping up. Pour away the fat from the roasting tin, then put the tin on the hob over a low to medium heat. Add half the stock, then bring to simmering point, stirring and scraping up the brown residue. Boil, reducing until darker and syrupy. Add the rest of the stock, and bring to simmering point again, bubbling to reduce it. Taste and adjust seasoning. Pour through a sieve into a warmed gravy jug.
• Pile the potatoes around the chicken, and garnish with remaining rosemary sprigs. Serve with gravy and braised lettuce.
• Freezing: Freeze the chicken at the end of step 2, for up to a month. Defrost thoroughly before continuing with the recipe.

• Combine 1 Tbsp. plus 1 tsp. salt and 1/2 tsp. pepper in a small bowl. Pat dry cutting board and chicken again, then tie legs together with kitchen twine.
