PAN ROASTED CHICKEN WITH LEMON AND WHOLE GRAIN MUSTARD
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!

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.
SKILLET-ROASTED LEMON CHICKEN
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
- Place the thyme, fennel seeds, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper in a mini food processor and process until ground. Pour the olive oil into a small glass measuring cup, stir in the herb mixture, and set aside.
- Distribute the lemon slices in a 12-inch cast iron skillet and distribute the onion and garlic on top. Place the chicken, skin side down, on top of the onion and brush with about half the oil and herb mixture. Turn the chicken skin side up, pat it dry with paper towels (very important!), and brush it all over with the rest of the oil and herb mixture.
- Roast the chicken for 30 minutes. Pour the wine into the pan (not on the chicken!) and roast for another 10 to15 minutes, until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast registers 155 to 160 degrees.
- Remove the chicken from the oven, sprinkle it with the lemon juice, cover the skillet tightly with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 10 to 15 minutes. Cut the chicken in quarters or eighths, sprinkle with salt, and serve hot with the pan juices, cooked lemon, and onion.

Steps:
- In a large resealable bag, combine the beef broth, white wine, 1 tablespoon of the mustard powder, Worcestershire sauce, chopped garlic, onions and some salt and pepper. Add the chicken quarters to the bag, seal well, and shake a bit to coat the chicken in the marinade. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and pat dry with paper towels; reserve the marinade. Add the chicken, skin side down, to the skillet and cook until nicely brown, 5 minutes. Flip, and brown on the reverse side, another 4 minutes. Lower the heat to medium-low and add the butter and the smashed garlic to the pan. Cook for 1 minute, basting the chicken with the melted butter.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 170 degrees F, measured at the thickest part of the thigh, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove the chicken to a plate and let rest, loosely cover, for 5 minutes.
- Heat the half-and-half and rosemary in a small saucepan over low heat. Pour off all but about 2 tablespoons of the oil from the skillet the chicken was cooked in. Place the skillet over medium heat and deglaze the pan with half of the reserved marinade, scraping up any browned bit from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Cook for 2 minutes, to reduce. Strain into the heated half-and-half and remove the rosemary sprig. In a small bowl, mix together the cornstarch and 2 tablespoons cold water. Whisk the cornstarch slurry into the half-and-half, then whisk in the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons mustard powder, the whole-grain mustard and the lemon juice. Season the sauce with a salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce coats the back of a spoon. Pour some of the sauce over the chicken and serve the rest on the side.
CRISPY PARMESAN ROAST CHICKEN WITH LEMON
Sprinkling grated Parmesan over a whole chicken as it roasts yields extra-crisp, extra-savory skin in this recipe, while chopped fresh rosemary and lemon zest perfume the meat through and through. Be sure to serve this with the lemony pan drippings, which make a bright, rich sauce for the tender meat. Heat lovers should feel free to add plenty of red-pepper flakes to the drippings - or serve red pepper on the side for individual spicing.

Steps:
- Finely grate 1 teaspoon zest from the lemon and place it in a small bowl. (Save the zested lemon for the drippings.) Stir in 2 teaspoons salt, pepper, chopped rosemary and red-pepper flakes, if using. Season the chicken inside and out with salt mixture. Let sit at room temperature for 20 minutes or refrigerate uncovered for up to overnight.
- Heat oven to 425 degrees. Place chicken, breast-side up, in a large skillet, sheet pan or roasting pan. Stuff cavity of chicken with rosemary sprigs. Drizzle breast with a little olive oil.
- Roast chicken for 30 minutes. Sprinkle chicken all over with Parmesan, then continue roasting until bird's juices run clear when skin is pierced with a knife and the skin is golden, 25 to 30 minutes longer.
- Let chicken rest for 10 minutes. Squeeze juice from the zested lemon, to taste, into the pan drippings and season with more salt and red-pepper flakes if you like. Carve and serve with drippings spooned over the meat.

PAN ROASTED CHICKEN WITH MUSTARD AND SHERRY
Adapted from The Kitchen Detective: A Culinary Sleuth Solves Common Cooking Mysteries with 150 Foolproof Recipes by Christopher Kimball, this is yummy! If using canned chicken broth, choose a low-sodium brand, or the sauce will be too salty. If using kosher chicken, skip the brine, the chicken is already salty. An English and French recipe.

Steps:
- For the chicken:
- Dissolve the salt and sugar in 2 quarts cold water in a large bowl. (You can also use a large plastic freezer bag.) Put the chicken in the brine and refrigerate until fully seasoned, about 1 hour. Remove the chicken from the brine and rinse it well under cold running water. Dry thoroughly inside and out with paper towels. Adjust an oven rack to the center position in your oven and heat to 350* F.
- Using a sharp knife, make three diagonal slashes in the skin of each piece of chicken, being careful not to cut into the meat. Season both sides with pepper. Meanwhile, add the olive oil to a heavy 12" skillet over medium-high heat, and when the oil just starts to smoke, add the chicken breasts, skin-side down, and be careful- they will splatter. Cook for 7 to 8 minutes or until dark brown. Turn the breasts skin-side up and place the skillet in the heated oven. Cook for 15 to 25 minutes or until an instant-read thermometer reads 165 degrees at the thickest part of each breast. Carefully remove the pan from the oven (the handle will be really hot). Transfer the chicken to a warm platter and cover with aluminum foil to retain heat.
- For the sauce:
- Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of fat from the skillet and place the skillet over high heat. Add the shallot, sherry, and chicken stock and scrape the browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Cook at a rolling boil until the liquid has thickened slightly and has reduced by about two thirds, about 5 minutes. Add the mustard and thyme and cook 1 minute. Add the lemon juice and parsley and cook 30 seconds more. Serve immediately spooned over the chicken breasts. Enjoy!

HONEY MUSTARD ROAST CHICKEN
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.

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.

Tips:
- To ensure even cooking, use a heavy-bottomed skillet or roasting pan.
- Sear the chicken in a hot skillet until it is golden brown, then reduce the heat to medium-low and continue cooking until the chicken is cooked through.
- Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken. It should read 165 degrees Fahrenheit when it is done.
- Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the chicken.
- Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
