Yield 4-6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (3 1/2-4-lb.) chicken
Kosher salt
1 head of garlic, halved crosswise, plus 4 cloves, thinly sliced
1 1/2 lb. carrots, scrubbed, cut in half
8 small shallots, peeled
1 (2") piece ginger, unpeeled, thinly sliced
2 Tbsp. unsalted butter
1 Tbsp. honey
2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
1 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 cup fresh lime juice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 250°F. Season chicken generously with salt inside and out. Place head of garlic inside cavity; tie legs together if desired. Let sit at least 5 minutes or chill, uncovered, up to 2 days.
  • Combine carrots, shallots, ginger, butter, and honey in a large Dutch oven or other heavy pot; season lightly with salt. Place chicken on top, nestling into vegetables so lid will sit tight. Cover; bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of breast registers 155°F, about 2 hours. Uncover and let rest 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cook oil and sliced garlic in a small saucepan over medium until garlic is lightly browned, 6-8 minutes. Add red pepper flakes and let cool. Stir in lime juice; season dressing with salt.
  • Increase oven temperature to 450°F. Place chicken on a rimmed baking sheet and roast until skin is browned and crisp, 10-14 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place pot over medium-high heat; bring juices to a simmer. Cook, reducing heat as needed, until vegetables are glazed, 10-12 minutes. Keep warm over low heat until chicken is done.
  • Serve chicken on top of vegetables with dressing drizzled over.

CHICKEN GINGER AND HONEY

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

6 tablespoons olive oil
5 pounds chicken breast, cut into strips
Salt and pepper
1 bok choy, cut into julienne strips
1 small daikon, cut into julienne strips
1/2 Chinese cabbage, cut into julienne strips
2 carrots, cut into julienne strips
2 tablespoons peeled and minced fresh ginger
1 teaspoon minced garlic
3 tablespoons honey
1 cup chicken stock
1 teaspoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons cold water
1/2 pound fried vermicelli egg noodles
1/2 cup minced fresh cilantro leaves
6 mint leaves, minced
1/3 cup pickled ginger

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. When the oil is hot, add the chicken strips and saute until chicken is just cooked through, about 4 to 5 minutes, depending on the size of the strips. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
  • Add 2 more tablespoons of olive oil to the skillet and heat over medium-high heat. Add the julienned vegetables and cook until crisp tender, about 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Remove the vegetables from the pan and set aside.
  • Add 2 more tablespoons of olive oil to the skillet, reduce the heat to medium, and then add the fresh ginger and garlic. Cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 to 2 minutes. Add the honey and chicken stock and let the sauce reduce slightly. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons cold water until dissolved. Add the cornstarch slurry to the sauce and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, or until sauce is thickened.
  • When the sauce has thickened, return the chicken and vegetables to the skillet and cook until just heated through. To serve, arrange the fried noodles as a base on each plate. Spoon the chicken, vegetables, and sauce over the noodles. Garnish with the cilantro, mint, and pickled ginger.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ingredients: Using fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your dish. Look for free-range, organic chicken, and fresh ginger and garlic.
  • Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in a mixture of honey, ginger, garlic, and soy sauce will help to infuse it with flavor and make it more tender.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the chicken, be sure not to overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly and will make it more likely to stick to the pan.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat: Cooking the chicken over medium heat will help to prevent it from drying out. Be sure to cook the chicken until it is cooked through, but not overcooked.
  • Serve with your favorite sides: Honey and ginger chicken can be served with a variety of sides, such as rice, noodles, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

Honey and ginger chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. With its sweet and savory flavor, this dish is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner recipe, give honey and ginger chicken a try!
