Roast Chicken With Walnut-Herb Stuffing image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 2h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 6 -pound roasting chicken
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 stick unsalted butter
4 cloves garlic, smashed and roughly chopped
1/4 cup roughly chopped walnuts
1/4 cup fresh parsley, roughly chopped
2 teaspoons fresh thyme
1 baguette, cut into 1 1/4-inch cubes (about 5 cups)
4 cups low-sodium chicken broth

Steps:

  • Rinse the chicken and pat dry. Put on a large plate and refrigerate, uncovered, at least 4 hours or overnight to dry out the skin.
  • Pat the chicken dry and season the cavity with salt and pepper. Put the chicken on a rack in a roasting pan, tucking the wings underneath. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Cook the butter, garlic and walnuts in a small skillet over low heat until the butter is melted and the nuts are lightly toasted, 5 to 7 minutes. Brush the chicken with 2 tablespoons of the garlic butter; transfer the remaining butter mixture (including the garlic and nuts) to a large bowl. Add the parsley, thyme and bread and toss to coat. Fill the cavity of the chicken with about two-thirds of the stuffing. Tuck the remaining stuffing on the baking sheet underneath the chicken. Sprinkle the chicken with 2 teaspoons salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
  • Transfer the roasting pan to the oven and roast until the stuffing is toasted, about 20 minutes. Add 2 cups chicken broth to the pan and roast 40 more minutes. Use a spoon to scoop the stuffing out of the chicken and transfer to the bottom of the roasting pan with the rest of the stuffing. Reduce the heat to 425 degrees F and continue roasting until an instant-read thermometer registers 165 degrees F, 30 to 40 minutes.
  • Transfer the chicken to a platter and let rest 15 minutes. Transfer the stuffing to a bowl. Put the roasting pan on the stovetop over medium-high heat. Add the remaining 2 cups broth to the pan and cook, scraping up any browned bits with a wooden spoon, until almost syrupy, 5 to 8 minutes. Return the stuffing to the pan to soak up the juices. Serve with the chicken.

Provided by Lux

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Chicken     Whole Chicken Recipes

Time 2h5m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons olive oil
¼ cup butter, divided
3 large onions, sliced
2 cups sliced celery
1 leek, sliced
2 teaspoons lemon zest
½ teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon minced garlic
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
¼ cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 whole chicken, rinsed and patted dry
kosher salt and ground black pepper to taste
½ loaf French bread, cut into 3/4-inch slices
¼ cup fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Heat olive oil and 2 tablespoons butter in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add onions, celery, and leek. Cook and stir until softened, about 10 minutes. Stir in lemon zest, thyme, garlic, and red pepper flakes. Cook until flavors combine, about 5 minutes. Mix in parsley. Remove from heat; transfer vegetable mixture to a bowl.
  • Butterfly the chicken by removing the backbone, and pressing down on the breastbone to crack chicken open using a knife or kitchen shears. Open the 2 sides and spread them out like an open book. Rub the remaining 2 tablespoons butter all over the chicken. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Lay bread onto the bottom of the same skillet; spread vegetable mixture over bread to make stuffing. Arrange chicken into a layer on top, skin side-up. Pour lemon juice over chicken.
  • Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 1 hour to 1 hour 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 chicken from the oven, cover with a doubled sheet of aluminum foil, and allow to rest in a warm area for 10 minutes before slicing into quarters. Spoon stuffing onto each serving patter and top with chicken.

Tips:

  • Prep Ahead: You can make the stuffing up to 2 days ahead and store it in the refrigerator. Just bring it to room temperature before stuffing the chicken.
  • Use Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs like sage, thyme, and rosemary add a delicious flavor to the stuffing. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but use about 1/3 of the amount.
  • Don't Overstuff the Chicken: Stuff the chicken loosely so that there is room for the stuffing to expand while cooking. Overstuffing the chicken can make it difficult to cook evenly.
  • Roast the Chicken on a Rack: This allows the air to circulate around the chicken and helps it to cook evenly.
  • Baste the Chicken: Basting the chicken with butter or oil helps to keep it moist and flavorful.
  • Let the Chicken Rest: Before carving the chicken, let it rest for 10-15 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

This classic chicken and stuffing recipe is a delicious and hearty meal that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of tender chicken and flavorful stuffing is sure to please everyone at your table. With a few simple tips, you can make this dish a success every time.
