Crispy Roasted Chicken image

This oven-roasted chicken is inspired by the Brathaehnchen served commonly in Bavarian Biergartens, small shops, and food carts. You can serve this chicken with many side dishes, but favorites are fried potatoes or spaetzle and a nice garden salad. Weiss beer doesn't hurt at all!

Time 1h30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon caraway seeds
½ teaspoon dried sage
¼ teaspoon fennel seeds
¼ teaspoon coriander seeds
¼ teaspoon dried rosemary
2 tablespoons paprika
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon onion powder
5 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 (4 pound) broiler-fryer chicken, cut in half lengthwise

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • In a spice grinder or mortar, combine kosher salt, caraway seeds, sage, fennel, coriander, and rosemary. Grind to a coarse powder. Transfer spice mixture to a bowl and stir in paprika, garlic powder, flour, and onion powder; mix in vegetable oil to make a smooth paste.
  • Pat chicken halves dry with paper towels and tuck wing tips up behind the back. Brush spice paste onto chicken halves, coating both sides, taking care to season under wings and legs. Place chicken halves in baking dish or roasting pan with skin sides up, leaving space around chicken so halves aren't touching.
  • Roast in preheated oven until a thermometer inserted in a thigh reads 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 1 hour. Remove from oven and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons rice vinegar, plus more, for the sauce
3 pounds bone-in skin-on chicken thighs, trimmed of excess fat (6 to 8 thighs)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
One 15-ounce can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 firm ripe mango, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon coconut milk
2 teaspoons chopped chipotle chiles in adobo

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Put the onions in a bowl with the vinegar and soak 10 minutes.

Add the chipotle chiles, remaining 1/2 cup coconut milk and 1/2 cup water; bring to a boil, scraping the browned bits from the pan. Reduce the heat and simmer until the sauce is slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Add a splash of vinegar and season with salt.

CRISPY OVEN-ROASTED ROSEMARY CHICKEN WITH SAUSAGE AND POTATOES



Crispy Oven-Roasted Rosemary Chicken with Sausage and Potatoes image

I have had to adapt all my cooking to avoid anything that can induce heartburn. There are so many things I can't eat, I was about to despair of ever figuring out anything tasty I could cook. After much browsing, I came up with this fabulous recipe. All of my friends now make this recipe, so it's not just for heartburn sufferers! Of course, you can always add garlic or onion, but I guarantee you won't miss them! I usually use chicken thighs and the only sausage I can eat is bratwurst, but Italian would be yummy, of course.

CHICKEN DIANE WITH CRISPY ROASTED POTATOES



Chicken Diane with Crispy Roasted Potatoes image

One of my husband's favorite dishes is steak Diane but I'm not a big red meat eater. So, I came up with this chicken version made with a sauce that has the same flavors as the original. I serve it alongside "crispy on the outside but creamy on the inside" roasted potatoes that cook in the time it takes to make the chicken.

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 pound baby Yukon gold potatoes, cut in half
4 tablespoons unsalted ghee, melted
Flaky sea salt, such as Maldon
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1 large shallot, halved and thinly sliced
1 clove garlic, grated or minced
10 ounces cremini mushrooms, stemmed and thinly sliced
1/4 cup cognac or brandy
1/2 cup low-sodium chicken stock
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoon minced chives
1 tablespoon finely chopped flat-leaf parsley

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.

I found this yummy sounding recipe while searching for Australian recipes. This is a recipe from Chef Ben O'Donoghue, as seen in the LifeStyle FOOD Channel production "The Best In Australia". Time doesn't include the 2-3 hours for the salting method. Times and servings are just a estimate as it isn't listed in the recipe. The baking time will vary with the size of the thighs.

Tips for Perfectly Roasted Chicken:

  • Choose the Right Chicken: Select a whole chicken that is plump and has a moist, not slimy, appearance. Look for a bird that is free of any bruises or tears in the skin.
  • Dry the Chicken Thoroughly: Pat the chicken dry inside and out with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This will help the skin crisp up and prevent steaming.
  • Season Liberally: Season the chicken generously with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices. Be sure to season the inside as well as the outside of the bird.
  • Truss the Chicken: Trussing the chicken helps it cook evenly and keeps the wings and legs from drying out. You can use kitchen twine or a trussing needle to secure the chicken.
  • Roast the Chicken at a High Temperature: Start by roasting the chicken at a high temperature (425°F or 220°C) for 30 minutes. This will help to brown the skin and seal in the juices.
  • Reduce the Temperature and Continue Roasting: After 30 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 350°F or 175°C and continue roasting the chicken for an additional 1-1 1/2 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F or 74°C.
  • Let the Chicken Rest: Once the chicken is cooked through, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful chicken.

Conclusion:

Roasted chicken is a classic dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. By following these tips, you can create a delicious and flavorful roasted chicken that will be the star of your next meal. Whether you are a beginner cook or a seasoned pro, these tips will help you achieve perfectly roasted chicken every time.
