Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat; add the olive oil. Season the chicken with salt and pepper to taste. Lay the chicken skinned side down in the skillet and cook, turning once, until golden, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to a baking dish or roasting pan and bake just until firm to the touch, about 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, add the onion, garlic, thyme to the skillet and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Cook, stirring occasionally, until brown, about 5 minutes. Add the artichokes and peppers and cook until brown as well, about 3 minutes. Add the vermouth and stir with a wooden spoon to scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Simmer until the vermouth is syrupy, then add the broth and bring the mixture to a full boil. Simmer until the sauce thickens, and season with salt and pepper. Whisk in the butter and add the parsley. Pour the sauce over the chicken, and serve.

ROAST CHICKEN AND VEGETABLES WITH GREMOLATA BUTTER
Steps:
- Thoroughly season the inside and outside of the chicken with Essence. Cover the bird and return to the refrigerator for 1 hour to marinate.
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- Place the chicken on the center column of an angel food cake pan with the legs touching the bottom of the pan. Place the cake pan on top of a pizza pan or other flat pan with a small rim to catch any fat or juices which might escape.
- Roast the chicken for 2 to 2 1/2 hours (depending on your oven) until it's a beautiful coppery brown. Meanwhile, cut the potatoes in half widthwise. Place flat side down and have your child cut the halves in half. Repeat so that each potato is cut into 8 wedges. Place in a casserole dish. Repeat the process with the onion. Add the baby carrots. Drizzle veggies with some olive oil and Essence and toss. Cover and place in the oven after the chicken has been cooking for 1 hour.
- When chicken is done, remove from oven and let rest for 10 minutes.
- Gremolata Butter:
- Using a damp washcloth on the counter, set a large bowl on top of cloth to keep bowl from moving around. Place a grater inside the bowl (I use a rubber topped grater with rubber feet for safety). Have your child grate the zest of 2 lemons using the medium holes of the grater. Explain to them that you only want the yellow skin. Have them grate 4 or 5 strokes and turn the lemon. (No matter how careful they will be, some of the pith will get into the bowl. This is not a big deal! It won't ruin the taste. Besides, all you will taste is the love!) Clean off all the zest into the bowl and remove the grater. Next, take a garlic press and have your child press the garlic cloves into the bowl. There is no need to remove the skin from the garlic.
- Place the bunch of parsley on a cutting board. Using a mezzaluna or crescent knife with handles, help your child roughly chop the parsley. Gather the parsley up in a pile and turn the cutting board so they can continue chopping until it's finely chopped. Place the chopped parsley into the bowl. Add the room temperature butter. Mix well and set aside. If making gremolata butter ahead of time, refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Serve chicken and vegetables with a spoonful of gremolata butter on top.
- Combine all ingredients thoroughly

BRAISED CHICKEN WITH ARTICHOKES AND OLIVES
Imbued with the classic Mediterranean flavors of artichokes, garlic, mint and olives, this braised chicken is complex and highly satisfying, with a white wine sauce brightened with lemon. Fresh artichokes have the most pronounced character and meatiest texture, but if you can't get them or don't want to go to the trouble of cleaning them, you can substitute frozen artichoke hearts (you'll need a 9- or 10-once package). Serve this with crusty bread for sauce-mopping.

Steps:
- Squeeze the juice of 1 lemon into a large bowl of water. Discard the outer leaves of each artichoke. As you do so, and as you continue cleaning the artichokes, dip them into the lemon water to stop the cut sides from browning. Use a paring knife to peel the base and stems. Slice off the top third of each artichoke. Slice the artichokes in half lengthwise. Using a teaspoon or grapefruit spoon, scoop out the hairy chokes inside, pulling out any prickly purple leaves as well. Slice each half into three pieces. Put trimmed artichoke pieces in lemon water until needed.
- Heat oven to 375 degrees. Pat the chicken dry with paper towel and season with salt and pepper. In a large (12-inch) ovenproof skillet with a lid, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken pieces and sear in batches until well browned, 5 to 7 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to a plate.
- Add artichokes and garlic to pan, adding more oil if needed, and cook, turning occasionally, until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Stir in tomatoes and red pepper flakes; cook 1 minute more.
- Pour in wine and stir in olives, rosemary branches and grated zest of 1/2 lemon. (Do not discard after zesting.) Return chicken to pan. Bring liquid to a simmer.
- Cover pan and transfer to oven. Cook until chicken is tender, 30 to 35 minutes. (Check white meat after 25 minutes and remove from oven if done.) Transfer chicken to a plate and place skillet over medium-high heat. Simmer until pan juices thicken and become saucelike, about 3 to 5 minutes. Whisk in butter.
- Return chicken to pan and sprinkle with cheese. Adjust oven heat to broil and place pan in the oven until cheese is melted and golden, 2 to 3 minutes. (Watch carefully to see that it does not burn.) Squeeze juice of remaining lemon half over pan and serve garnished with chives or mint if you like.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Place about two-thirds of the artichokes in a food processor with the garlic, 2 teaspoons of the olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and pepper. Process until smooth, stopping as necessary to scrape the sides of the bowl.
- Carefully loosen the skin over the breast from the meat, forming 2 pouches. Stuff the pouches with the artichoke mixture. Rub the skin with the remaining teaspoon of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Fill the cavity with the lemon, the rosemary and the remaining artichoke hearts. Place in a roasting pan and roast for 35 minutes, running a spatula under the chicken once or twice to prevent it from sticking to the pan.
- Combine the tomato, roasted pepper and cayenne and spoon the mixture over the chicken. Continue roasting until the juices run clear when pricked in the thickest part of the thigh, about 35 minutes longer, basting every 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let stand for 10 minutes before carvings. Carve and divide among 4 plates, serving a little of the artichoke puree with each serving.

Tips:
- Use a whole chicken for the best flavor. A whole chicken will give you more meat and a richer flavor than chicken breasts or thighs alone.
- Season the chicken generously. This will help to develop a delicious crust and keep the chicken moist. Be sure to season the inside and outside of the chicken.
- Roast the chicken on a bed of vegetables. This will help to prevent the chicken from sticking to the pan and will also add flavor to the chicken. You can use any vegetables you like, but artichokes, carrots, and potatoes are all good choices.
- Baste the chicken with the pan juices every 20 minutes. This will help to keep the chicken moist and prevent it from drying out.
- Roast the chicken until it is cooked through. The internal temperature of the chicken should be 165 degrees Fahrenheit when it is done.
- Let the chicken rest before carving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.
- Serve the chicken with gremolata butter. Gremolata butter is a simple but delicious sauce made with parsley, garlic, and lemon zest. It is the perfect complement to roast chicken.
Conclusion:
This roast chicken with artichokes and gremolata butter is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion. The chicken is moist and flavorful, the artichokes are tender and tangy, and the gremolata butter is the perfect finishing touch. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
