Categories     main-dish

Time 1h55m

Yield 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (5 to 6-pound) roasting chicken
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 large bunch fresh thyme
4 lemons
3 heads garlic, cut in 1/2 crosswise
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1/2 pound sliced bacon
1 cup white wine
1/2 cup chicken stock

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Remove the chicken giblets. Rinse the chicken inside and out. Remove any excess fat and leftover pinfeathers and pat the outside dry. Place the chicken in a large roasting pan. Liberally salt and pepper the inside of the chicken. Stuff the cavity with the thyme, reserving enough thyme to garnish the chicken dish, 1 lemon, halved, and 2 halves of the garlic. Brush the outside of the chicken with the butter and sprinkle again with salt and pepper. Tie the legs together with kitchen string and tuck the wing tips under the body of the chicken. Cut 2 of the lemons in quarters and scatter the quarters and remaining garlic around the chicken. Lay the bacon slices over the chicken to cover.
  • Roast the chicken for 1 hour. Remove the bacon slices from the top of the chicken and set aside. Continue roasting the chicken for an additional 1/2 hour, or until the juices run clear when you cut between a leg and thigh. Remove to a platter and cover with aluminum foil while you prepare the gravy.
  • Remove all but 2 tablespoons of the fat from the bottom of the pan. Add the wine and chicken stock and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat, and simmer for 5 minutes, or until reduced by half.
  • Slice the chicken on a platter. Garnish the chicken platter with the bacon slices, roasted garlic, reserved thyme and 1 lemon, sliced. Serve with the gravy.

ROAST CHICKEN WITH LEMON GRASS



Roast Chicken With Lemon Grass image

Provided by Molly O'Neill

Categories     dinner, roasts, main course

Time 2h20m

Yield Four servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 stalks fresh lemon grass or 3 tablespoons dried
6 cloves garlic, crushed
4 shallots, peeled and sliced
2 red chili peppers, seeded
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 teaspoons bottled fish sauce (nuoc mam)
2 tablespoons water
1 roasting chicken, about 4 pounds
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Steps:

  • If you are using fresh lemon grass, discard the outer leaves and upper half of the stalk. Cut into thin slices and chop fine. If you are using dried lemon grass, soak in warm water for 1 hour, then drain and chop fine. Place the lemon grass, garlic, shallots, chilies, sugar, salt, fish sauce and 2 tablespoons water in a blender and blend to a paste.
  • Rinse the chicken well and pat dry. Carefully loosen the skin on the breast and legs, pushing your fingers between the skin and meat to form a pocket. Rub half of the lemon grass paste over the meat under the skin. Rub the remaining paste over the skin and inside the cavity. Tuck the wings underneath; tie the legs with twine. Let stand for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Place the chicken on a rack in a roasting pan. Roast for 15 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 375 degrees and continue roasting for 1 1/4 hours, basting the chicken with the vegetable oil and the pan juices. The chicken is done when it registers 180 to 185 degrees on an instant-reading meat thermometer. Let the chicken stand for 10 minutes. Serve with white rice and nuoc cham dipping sauce (see recipe).

GARLIC AND ROSEMARY LEMON-ROASTED CHICKEN



Garlic and Rosemary Lemon-Roasted Chicken image

This roasted chicken recipe is a family favorite. Cooks juicy, tender chicken every time.

Provided by Shaelyn

Time 2h10m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 medium lemon
½ medium onion
½ teaspoon garlic salt
½ teaspoon ground sage
½ teaspoon ground turmeric
½ teaspoon ground thyme
½ teaspoon ground basil
½ teaspoon ground rosemary
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 (4 pound) whole chicken
1 cup arugula
6 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed
7 tablespoons garlic-infused ghee, divided
1 tablespoon butter

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with foil.
  • Roll the lemon and cut in half lengthwise. Slice one half into quarters and set the other half aside for baking and basting. Cut onion into 4 pieces; slice one piece and sprinkle on the prepared baking sheet. Set remaining onion pieces aside.
  • Mix garlic salt, sage, turmeric, basil, rosemary, and pepper together until well combined; divide evenly into 2 bowls.
  • Rinse chicken in cold water and dry off. Trim and discard excess fat and separate skin from meat. Stuff inside of the chicken with arugula, 4 lemon slices, 3 onion pieces, and garlic cloves. Tie the legs together with twine. Spread 2 tablespoons ghee underneath the skin and another 2 tablespoons ghee on top of the skin, all over the chicken.
  • Add 2 tablespoon ghee and butter to one bowl of spices. Microwave for 45 seconds. Stir and spread underneath the skin. Microwave remaining 1 tablespoon ghee and brush on top of skin. Sprinkle remaining seasoning all over chicken and pat into the skin; do not rub. Lightly squeeze some of the remaining lemon half on top of chicken and place chicken, breast-side up, on the onion slices on the baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 1 hour and 30 minutes, basting with juices and remaining lemon juice every 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing, continuing to baste.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh lemongrass and garlic. If you don't have fresh lemongrass, you can use dried lemongrass, but be sure to soak it in warm water for at least 30 minutes before using.
  • To make sure the chicken is cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can also check if the chicken is cooked by piercing it with a fork or knife. The juices should run clear, with no pink.
  • Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before carving. This will help the juices redistribute and make the chicken more tender.

Conclusion:

This roasted chicken with lemongrass and garlic is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The lemongrass and garlic give the chicken a wonderful flavor, and the crispy skin is sure to please everyone at the table. Serve this chicken with your favorite sides, such as rice, potatoes, or vegetables.
