CHICKEN IN A POTATO NEST



Chicken in a Potato Nest image

This is a family favorite that is so simple to make, and a great way to use up left over chicken or turkey. I use up my left over gravy when I have it. I have also used instant mashed potatoes when in a hurry, but I prefer the taste of real potato. I found this in a recipe book years ago and modified it to make it quick and easy.

Chicken with Roasted Garlic Potatoes image

Golden chicken and potatoes roast together in a buttery seasoning that starts with Italian salad dressing mix.

Provided by dt

Time 2h30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 small heads garlic, unpeeled
¼ cup butter, at room temperature
1 (.6 ounce) package dry Italian salad dressing mix (such as Good Seasons®)
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
½ teaspoon ground paprika
1 (6 pound) roasting chicken
1 ½ pounds red new potatoes, halved

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Cut off and discard 1/2 inch from the top of each garlic head.
  • Combine butter, Italian dressing mix, thyme, and paprika in a large bowl.
  • Place chicken in a large roasting pan. Spread 1/2 of the butter mixture over the chicken skin.
  • Add potatoes to the bowl with the remaining butter mixture; toss until coated. Place potatoes in the pan around chicken, then add garlic heads, with cut-sides up.
  • Roast in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 1 hour 50 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, should read 180 degrees F (82 degrees C). Remove from the oven, and let rest 10 minutes.
  • While the chicken is resting, remove garlic from the pan. Allow it to cool slightly, then slip garlic cloves from the skins. Place 1/2 of the garlic in a bowl; stir in potatoes and transfer to a platter.
  • Carve chicken and transfer to the platter.
  • Skim and discard fat from pan drippings; transfer drippings to a bowl. Mash remaining garlic into the drippings. Serve with chicken and potatoes.

POTATO NESTS



Potato Nests image

This is a cute breakfast idea for Easter Sunday. I must confess that I didn't make mine in muffin cups--I just used an 8 1/2 x 11" pan for the hash browns and egg and added the cooked bacon at the end. This is a simple recipe kids could help make. If you don't have savory seasoned hash browns--add your own seasonings. Recipe courtesy of Ore-Ida Foods.
