MARINATED PORTOBELLO STUFFED WHOLE CHICKEN WITH ROASTED SWEET POTATOES AND RED ONION



Marinated Portobello Stuffed Whole Chicken with Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Red Onion image

Provided by Tom Pizzica

Time 1h55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 (3-pound) whole fryer chicken
8 slices Marinated Portobello mushrooms (4 whole portobellos), recipe follows
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Dash smoked paprika
2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and quartered
1 medium red onion, cut into 8 wedges (from root to tip)
Olive oil, for drizzling
8 portobello mushroom caps
1 cup extra-virgin olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 large shallot, minced
Zest and juice of 2 lemons
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
1/2 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
1 teaspoon honey
2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Start at the cavity end of the chicken and work your finger underneath the skin. Using 2 fingers, gently separate the skin from the entire breast and then work your way to the thighs and legs.
  • Take the portobello mushroom slices and lay them flat underneath the skin over the breast and thighs. Do this until all the slices of mushrooms are underneath the skin. Season the chicken with salt, pepper, and smoked paprika. Place the chicken in a roasting pan.
  • Place the sweet potatoes and red onion in a bowl. Coat lightly with olive oil, salt, and pepper, and toss. Place the potatoes and onions around the chicken and cook for about 1 hour, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, not touching the bone, reads 165 degrees F. When the chicken is done, remove it from the oven and let it rest for at least 10 minutes.
  • Slice and enjoy!
  • Brush the mushrooms carefully with a paper towel to get rid of the excess dirt. Using a spoon, carefully scrape out the gills from the underside of the portobello cap.
  • Slice the mushroom in half along the perimeter (like you are butterflying it) so you have 2 thin rounds, and then place them in a large bowl.
  • In a saute pan add the oil and place over medium heat. When the oil is shimmering, add the garlic and the shallot and cook for no more than 2 minutes. Turn off the heat and add the lemon zest, lemon juice, oregano, thyme, honey, salt, and pepper and whisk vigorously.
  • Pour the mixture over the mushrooms and with your hands toss gently to coat, making sure there is even coverage.
  • Let the mushrooms stand at room temperature for at least 45 minutes.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Two 2 1/2- to 3-pound broiling chickens, halved
1/4 cup chopped Italian parsley
Lemon Sauce (recipe follows)
2 cups fresh lemon juice
1 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
Salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • To attain maximum heat, preheat broiler for at least 15 minutes before using.
  • Broil chicken halves, turning once, for about 30 minutes or until skin is golden-brown and juices run clear when bird is pierced with a fork.
  • Remove chicken from broiler, leaving broiler on. Using a very sharp knife, cut each half into about 6 pieces (leg, thigh, wing, 3 small breast pieces).
  • Place chicken on a baking sheet with sides, of a size that can fit into the broiler. Pour Lemon Sauce over the chicken and toss to coat well. If necessary, divide sauce in half and do this in two batches.
  • Return to broiler and broil for 3 minutes. Turn each piece and broil for an additional minute.
  • Remove from broiler and portion each chicken into each of 6 warm serving plates.
  • Pour sauce into a heavy saucepan. Stir in parsley and place over high heat for 1 minute. Pour an equal amount of sauce over each chicken and serve with lots of crusty bread to absorb the sauce.
  • Whisk together juice, oil, vinegar, garlic, oregano, and salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use. Whisk or shake vigorously before using.

CHEESY PORTOBELLO BURGER WITH LEMON MAYO



Cheesy Portobello Burger With Lemon Mayo image

This is adapted from a recipe Emeril made on his show Emeril Green. Marinating the Portobello caps really boosts the mushroom flavor. The tangy lemon mayo sauce balances the richness of the blue cheese. Grilled red onion adds just enough sweetness and crunch. This is a great vegetarian alternative to the standard veggie patty.
