LEMON ROASTED CHICKEN AND POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 F. Line a rimmed baking pan with parchment paper and set aside.
• Combine the olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, garlic, Italian seasoning, onion powder, thyme, paprika, and red pepper flakes.
• Add the chicken, potatoes, and onions to a large bowl. Pour the lemon spice mixture, season to taste with salt and pepper, and toss thoroughly to combine.
• Arrange the chicken skin side up, potatoes, and onions on the prepared baking pan. I like to lightly season everything with salt and pepper once arranged on the pan to ensure it is seasoned well before going in the oven.
• Cover tightly with aluminum foil and bake, covered, for 40 minutes.
• Uncover, toss the potatoes around and spoon some of pan juices over the chicken. Top with lemon slices, and continue baking, uncovered, for additional 25-30 minutes or until chicken is fully cooked and potatoes are tender.
• Remove from the oven and let rest for 5-10 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

LEMON-HERB ROAST CHICKEN DINNER

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450°F. Spray 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish with cooking spray. In large bowl, mix melted butter, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and 1/2 teaspoon of the pepper. Stir in potatoes, carrots and onions. Pour into baking dish.
• Rub chicken all over with remaining 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Place thyme, rosemary, garlic and lemon wedges in cavity of chicken. If desired, tie legs together with 6-inch piece of cooking twine.
• Place chicken, breast side down, on top of potato and vegetable mixture. Roast 30 minutes; carefully turn chicken breast side up. Continue to roast 25 to 35 minutes longer, until legs move easily when lifted or twisted (at least 165°F in thickest part of thigh) and potatoes are tender.

LEMON-HERB-ROASTED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Rearrange oven racks so that the bird can be placed in the center of the oven. Preheat oven to 475 degrees F.
• Discard giblets (and any other foreign objects) that you find inside the bird. Rinse bird under cold water, then pat dry. Rub generously with salt, inside and out.
• In a small bowl, blend butter, pepper, rosemary, garlic and lemon zest. Rub the butter mixture all over the birds. Use your fingers to separate the skin from the breast meat and slide some of the mixture underneath the skin. Cross the legs and bind with twine.
• Place potatoes, cut side down in a large shallow roasting pan, or some facsimile. Perch bird atop potatoes. Roast for 30 minutes. Remove to baste and squeeze juice of 1/2 lemon overtop. Reduce temperature to 375 degrees F. Roast for 60 more minutes, or until the juices of the thigh meat run clear when pricked. If bird begins to burn on top, cover loosely with a sheet of aluminum foil.
• Squeeze other lemon 1/2 overtop, then cover tightly with aluminum foil, and let sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before serving (this locks in the juices).

ROASTED LEMON HERB CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Combine the seasoning, salt, mustard powder, garlic powder and black pepper; set aside. Rinse the chicken thoroughly, and remove the giblets. Place chicken in a 9x13 inch baking dish. Sprinkle 1 1/2 teaspoons of the spice mixture inside the chicken. Rub the remaining mixture on the outside of the chicken.
• Squeeze the juice of the 2 lemons into a small bowl or cup, and mix with the olive oil. Drizzle this oil/juice mixture over the chicken.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 1 1/2 hours, or until juices run clear, basting several times with the remaining oil mixture.

ROASTED HERBED CHICKEN WITH POTATOES AND CREAMY LEMON SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven broiler, keeping oven door cracked.
• Cut lemons in half. Cut the nub off so they can stand up in a small roasting pan, flesh side up. Season lemons with coarse salt.
• Place under broiler, about 2 inches from heating element. Roast until the tops are browned and blistered, but not burned (about 8-10 minutes). Set aside to cool.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Place butterflied chicken in mixing bowl, coat with olive oil. Season liberally with salt, pepper, Herbs de Provence, paprika and garlic powder, massaging into the entire surface, as well as under the skin.
• Slice the potatoes in 1/8-1/4 inch rounds. Place in another mixing bowl, lightly coat with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, Herbs and paprika.
• Line the drip pan of a broiler pan with aluminum foil. Place the potatoes in a single layer (okay if they overlap slightly) in the drip pan. Slice 6-8 cloves of garlic in half lengthwise and sprinkle over potatoes.
• Place the broiler rack on top, arrange the chicken on top (skin side up). Place in oven with breast side toward the front of the oven. Cook for 45 minutes - 1 hour or until thigh meat reaches 180 degrees, breast 165 degrees. During the last 15 minutes of cooking, turn the oven up to 450 degrees to achieve the desired crispiness of skin.
• To make sauce:
• While the chicken is cooking, strain juice from roasted lemons and set aside.
• Melt butter over medium heat in 10 inch saute pan. Saute shallots until soft and lightly browned, about 1-2 minutes.
• Add roasted lemon juice and chicken stock, bring to boil. Lower heat, simmer and reduce by half. (This should take about 10-12 minutes).
• Add cream of mushroom soup, heat through, add about 1 tablespoons sugar (more or less depending on acidity of the lemons). Add dash of balsamic vinegar and season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve sauce with chicken and potatoes.
