Best 6 Italian Garlic Chicken And Potatoes Recipes

GARLIC CHICKEN AND POTATOES

Steps:

• Position a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F. Toss the potatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil, the cumin seeds, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste. Spread in a large baking dish and roast until the potatoes begin to brown, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until lightly golden, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the brown sugar, lemon juice and red pepper flakes. Remove the baking dish from the oven, push the potatoes to the sides and arrange the chicken breasts in the middle. Season the chicken with salt and drizzle with the garlic mixture. Return to the oven and bake until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes.
• Remove from the oven; transfer the chicken to a cutting board and slice. Add the cilantro to the baking dish and toss with the potatoes. Serve the chicken with the potatoes and lemon wedges. Drizzle with the pan juices.

CHICKEN WITH ROASTED GARLIC POTATOES

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.

• 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.

ITALIAN ROAST CHICKEN WITH POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Wash the capon (actually a castrated male chicken) under cold running water, and soak for 1 hour in a pan of cold water in which 1/4 cup kosher salt has been dissolved. Drain and rinse again, using paper toweling to dry the bird inside and out.
• Season the capon inside and out with a generous amount of salt and pepper. Put half the rosemary and thyme and all of the chopped garlic inside the cavity of the capon, along with some of the onion, carrot and celery. Tie the legs of the capon together to aid in even roasting and place, breast side down in a roasting pan. Rub the remaining herbs on the outside of the capon, drizzle all the olive oil over the capon, scattering the rest of the vegetables (except the potatoes) in the pan along with the capon. Place the roasting pan into the oven and roast the capon for 20 minutes on its breast, before turning onto its back for an additional 20 minutes. When the capon has roasted for 20 minutes on its back, add the potatoes and continue roasting for an additional hour or until the bird is thoroughly cooked (a meat thermometer registers 165 degrees F at the leg joint). Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper and remove from the oven, allowing the capon to rest for 15 minutes before serving.

• Combine the vinegar, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, parsley, onion, salt and pepper with the 1/2 cup reserved frying oil and pour this mixture over the chicken and potatoes.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 1 1/4 hours, basting the chicken and potatoes with the sauce mixture. Let rest for 5 minutes and serve hot.

• Mix the potato chunks in a bowl with half the olive oil, half the parsley, and a generous amount of salt and pepper.

• In the same bowl, mix the chicken parts with the remaining oil and parsley and more salt and pepper, again stirring to coat well.
• Arrange the chicken over the top of the potatoes, skin side down.
• Place in the oven and bake for 30 minutes, remove chicken pieces to a plate, stir the potatoes, and replace the chicken pieces, skin side up.
