Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons olive oil
1 whole frying chicken, 3 to 4 pounds, butterflied
1/2 cup port wine
1/2 cup chicken stock or 2 tablespoons BBQ sauce
1/3 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon Meaux (whole grain) mustard
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons finely chopped parsley leaves
2 tablespoons finely chopped tarragon leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Heat an ovenproof skillet large enough to hold the chicken over high heat. Add the olive oil and swirl it in the skillet. As soon as you begin to see slight wisps of smoke, carefully place the chicken skin side down in the skillet. Sear the chicken, undisturbed, while reducing the heat little by little to medium, until its skin has turned golden brown and crisp, 5 to 7 minutes. Carefully turn the chicken skin side up.
  • Put the skillet into the oven and cook until the chicken is deep golden brown and the juices run clear when the thickest part of the thigh is pierced with a skewer, about 10 to 15 minutes, depending on its size. When the chicken is done, transfer it to the plate and keep warm.
  • Pour off all but a thin layer of fat from the skillet. Add the port, put the skillet over high heat, and reduce until half remains. Add the chicken stock and reduce again. (If using BBQ sauce, you don't have to reduce.) Add the cream, bring it to a boil, and cook for 3 minutes. Stir in the Dijon and Meaux mustards and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Return the chicken to the skillet and sprinkle with parsley and tarragon.

HONEY MUSTARD ROAST CHICKEN



Honey Mustard Roast Chicken image

Here's a delicious recipe for roast chicken using one of my all-time favorite poultry techniques...spatchcocking! This method of cooking allows the chicken to sit flat as it roasts, ensuring that everything cooks evenly so the breast meat ends up just as juicy and succulent as the dark meat. The honey mustard marinade adds incredible flavor and works overtime as a sweet and tangy basting and serving sauce. Serve with roasted potatoes and Brussels sprouts, if desired.

Time 5h30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

½ cup yellow mustard
¼ cup honey
¼ cup seasoned rice wine vinegar
2 teaspoons Sriracha
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more as needed
1 (4.5 pound) whole chicken
¼ cup chicken stock, or as needed
2 tablespoons chopped green onions, or to taste

Steps:

  • Mix mustard, honey, vinegar, Sriracha, paprika, pepper, and salt in a very large bowl until combined.
  • Place chicken, breast-side down, on a work surface. Starting at the tailbone, cut along either side of the backbone with scissors or a knife, cutting as close to the bone as possible. Discard the backbone and trim any excess fat or skin from the chicken.
  • Find the cartilage where the wishbone comes together and forms a "v" and make 1 shallow cut with a knife through the cartilage. Press down on either side to flatten the chicken and expose the breastbone, making another cut in the cartilage if necessary. Run your fingers along the breastbone until the rest of the cartilage pulls away. Make a few shallow cuts into the legs, thighs, and wings to ensure even cooking.
  • Transfer chicken into the bowl of marinade and toss until well coated. Marinate, breast-side down, in the refrigerator, 4 to 12 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  • Transfer chicken, skin-side up, to the prepared baking sheet. Season with salt. Reserve marinade for basting.
  • Cook in the center of the preheated oven until chicken starts to darken in spots, 35 to 40 minutes.
  • While the chicken is roasting, transfer excess marinade into a small saucepan. Add chicken stock to thin the sauce a bit and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat.
  • Baste chicken with sauce and continue to roast, basting again if desired, until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 15 minutes more. 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 and brush any rendered fat and accumulated juices from the pan onto the chicken.
  • Transfer chicken to a serving platter and garnish with green onions. Slice and serve, spooning any remaining sauce over top.

PAN ROASTED CHICKEN WITH LEMON AND WHOLE GRAIN MUSTARD



Pan Roasted Chicken With Lemon and Whole Grain Mustard image

This is my secret for success with a small roasted chicken. It's skin will be mahogany brown and crackling, while all of it's meat, white and dark alike, will be moist and flavorful. You can butterfly the chicken yourself if you don't have a butcher that will do it for you. It's easy with poultry shears. Working slowly and deliberately, use the shears to cut along each side of the backbone from neck to tail and remove it. Turn the bird breast-up, spread it open, and flatten it with a firm blow from the heel of your hand. Easy Peasy, and mighty delicious!

Categories     Whole Chicken

Time 50m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (3 lb) frying chickens, butterflied
2 fresh basil leaves or 1 sprig rosemary
salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 cup chicken stock
2 large lemons, juice of (6 to 8 TBS)
2 tablespoons whole grain mustard
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into several pieces
1/4 cup minced fresh flat leaf parsley or 1/4 cup finely shredded fresh basil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450*F.
  • Prepare the chicken by gently easing your fingertips between the skin and the meat at the neck opening, to loosen the skin all over the breast, taking care not to tear the skin.
  • Insert the parsley sprig, basil or rosemary under the skin.
  • Season the chicken generously on both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Heat an oven-proof skillet large enough to hold the chicken over high heat.
  • Add the olive oil and swirl it in the skillet.
  • As soon as you begin to see slight wisps of smoke, carefully place the chicken skin side down in the skillet.
  • Sear the chicken, undisturbed, while reducing the heat little by little to medium, until it's skin has turned golden brown and crisp, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Carefully turn the chicken skin side up.
  • Put the skillet with the chicken into the preheated oven and cook until the chicken is deep golden brown and the juices run clear when the thickest part of the thigh meat is pierced with a thin skewer, 10 to 15 minutes more, depending on it's size.
  • When the chicken is done, remove it from the skillet with tongs and transfer it to a cutting board.
  • Pour off all but a thin glaze of fat from the skillet.
  • Return the skillet to high heat, add the chicken stock and the lemon juice, stirring and scraping with a wooden spoon to deglaze the pan.
  • Boil the liquid down until it has reduced by half it's volume, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Turn down the heat and add the mustard, stirring briskly with a wire whisk.
  • Add the butter a piece at a time to make a creamy sauce, making sure each piece has been incorporated completely before adding the next.
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper and stir in half of the parsley or basil.
  • To serve, spoon the sauce into the centers of two to four heated plates.
  • With a large sharp knife, cut the chicken into two halves or four equal pieces.
  • Place the chicken on the plates, sprinkle with the remaining parsley or basil and serve.

Tips:

  • Prep Ahead: To save time, prep the chicken and sauce components in advance and refrigerate them separately. Then, simply assemble and roast the chicken when ready to serve.
  • Choose Quality Ingredients: Use fresh lemons, herbs, and high-quality honey for the best flavor. Look for organic, free-range chicken if possible.
  • Season Generously: Don't be shy with the seasonings! Generously season the chicken inside and out to ensure it's packed with flavor.
  • Roast at High Temperature: Roasting the chicken at a high temperature (425°F/220°C) helps create a crispy skin and juicy interior.
  • Baste Regularly: Basting the chicken with the honey-lemon mixture throughout the roasting process helps keep it moist and flavorful.
  • Make the Sauce While the Chicken Roasts: While the chicken is in the oven, prepare the whole-grain mustard sauce. This allows the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Let the Chicken Rest: Once the chicken is roasted, let it rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. This helps the juices redistribute, resulting in tender, moist meat.

Conclusion:

Lemon Honey Roasted Chicken with Wholegrain Mustard Sauce is a delightful main course that combines classic flavors with a tangy, savory twist. The chicken is roasted to perfection, with a crispy skin and succulent interior, while the honey-lemon mixture and whole-grain mustard sauce add a burst of flavor that elevates the dish.
