PERFECT ROAST CHICKEN



Perfect Roast Chicken image

The almost universal appeal of roasted chicken stems from its power to comfort. The ideal roasted chicken recipe will leave your chicken golden brown and gleaming, tender, and juicy. The crackle of chicken as it roasts and the wondrous aroma that perfumes the kitchen provoke a feeling of satisfaction and fulfillment.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Chicken

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 six-pound roasting chicken
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 medium onions, peeled and sliced crosswise 1/2 inch thick
2 lemons
3 large cloves garlic, peeled
4 sprigs fresh thyme
1 cup Homemade Chicken Stock, or canned low-sodium chicken broth, skimmed of fat

Steps:

  • Let chicken and 1 tablespoon butter stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Remove and discard the plastic pop-up timer from chicken if there is one. Remove the giblets and excess fat from the chicken cavity. Rinse chicken inside and out under cold running water. Dry chicken thoroughly with paper towels. Tuck the wing tips under the body. Sprinkle the cavity of the chicken liberally with salt and pepper, and set aside.
  • In the center of a heavy-duty roasting pan, place onion slices in two rows, touching. Place the palm of your hand on top of lemon and, pressing down, roll lemon back and forth several times. This softens the lemon and allows the juice to flow more freely. Pierce entire surface of lemon with a fork. Using the side of a large knife, gently press on garlic cloves to open slightly. Insert garlic cloves, thyme sprigs, and lemon into cavity. Place chicken in pan, on onion slices. Cut about 18 inches of kitchen twine, bring chicken legs forward, cross them, and tie together.
  • Spread the softened butter over entire surface of chicken, and sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Place in the oven, and roast until skin is deep golden brown and crisp and the juices run clear when pierced, about 1 1/2 hours. When chicken seems done, insert an instant-read thermometer into the breast, then the thigh. The breast temperature should read 180 degrees and the thigh 190 degrees.
  • Remove chicken from oven, and transfer to a cutting board with a well. Let chicken stand 10 to 15 minutes so the juices settle. Meanwhile, pour the pan drippings into a shallow bowl or fat separator, and leave onions in the pan. Leave any brown baked-on bits in the bottom of the roasting pan, and remove and discard any blackened bits. Using a large spoon or fat separator, skim off and discard as much fat as possible. Pour the remaining drippings and the juices that have collected under the resting chicken back into the roasting pan. Place on the stove over medium-high heat to cook, about 1 minute. Add chicken stock, raise heat to high, and, using a wooden spoon, stir up and combine the brown bits with the stock until the liquid is reduced by half, about 4 minutes. Strain the gravy into a small bowl, pressing on onions to extract any liquid. Discard onions, and stir in the remaining tablespoon of cold butter until melted and incorporated. Untie the legs, and remove and discard garlic, thyme, and lemon. Carve, and serve gravy on the side.

ROASTED CHICKEN STOCK



Roasted Chicken Stock image

One of the great joys of roasting a chicken is turning the bones into stock. This simple golden elixir, a real panacea for life's ailments, starts with a leftover carcass from a roasted chicken, one you've already eaten and picked the meat off of. What you're going for here isn't clarity in looks or flavor, as you might with a traditional French stock. Instead, this version is deeply fortified with alliums, bay leaves, peppercorns and a touch of turmeric for earthy depth and spiced savoriness. This stock is great to cook with, but also tastes excellent sipped straight from a mug like tea.

Provided by Eric Kim

Time 1h10m

Yield 1 1/2 to 2 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 leftover carcass from a whole roasted chicken, meat picked off and saved for another use
1 large yellow onion
1 head of garlic
8 small or 4 large dried bay leaves
1 tablespoon kosher salt (Diamond Crystal) or 1 1/2 teaspoons coarse kosher salt
1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns
1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric

Steps:

  • To make this stock in an Instant Pot: Add the chicken carcass to a 3- or 6-quart Instant Pot or other electric pressure cooker. Chop the onion into eighths, and slice the garlic head in half crosswise to expose the cloves; dump the alliums into the pot over the chicken. Crush the bay leaves and add, along with the salt, black peppercorns, and turmeric. Add enough cold water to reach the max line in the 3-quart or to cover the bones in the 6-quart (5 to 6 cups). Gently stir and cover with the lid. Pressure-cook on high for 1 hour and let the pressure release naturally.
  • To make this stock on the stove: Follow Step 1, but place all of the ingredients, including the water, into a large heavy-bottomed pot, such as a Dutch oven or stock pot, and gently stir. Bring to a boil over high heat, then immediately reduce the heat to maintain a gentle simmer. Cover and cook until the stock is deeply golden, the chicken bones are falling apart at the joints when you try to pick them up and the vegetables have turned to mush, about 3 hours.
  • Strain the contents of the pot through a colander set over a large bowl; press the bones to get out all of the liquid. Taste for seasoning, adjusting with salt as desired. Ladle the stock into large mugs for sipping, or use as an ingredient in your cooking. Alternatively, you can let the strained stock cool slightly before transferring into quart containers and storing in the refrigerator.
  • This chicken stock will keep in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days or in the freezer for up to 4 months. Heat individual portions in coffee mugs to drink in the morning for breakfast, or use as a base for soups, stews and porridges throughout the week.

RICH CHICKEN BROTH



Rich Chicken Broth image

Use this stock to make Matzo Ball Soup with Carrots and Dill. Leaving the skins on the onions adds to the rich golden color of the stock.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Soups, Stews & Stocks     Soup Recipes

Yield Makes about 3 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 chickens (3 to 4 pounds each), quartered, with necks reserved
3 medium yellow onions (about 1 1/2 pounds), unpeeled
4 medium carrots (about 8 ounces), scrubbed
4 ribs of celery, washed
2 bay leaves
10 black peppercorns
1/2 bunch fresh dill (about 24 large sprigs)

Steps:

  • Rinse chicken quarters and necks under cold water and place in an 11-quart stockpot. Cut onions, carrots, and celery in half and add to pot along with bay leaves, peppercorns, and dill sprigs. Add enough cold water to cover, about 4 1/2 quarts.
  • Bring water to a boil. Reduce heat to medium low and simmer, skimming off any scum that rises to the surface, about 4 hours.
  • Remove pot from heat and strain broth through a cheesecloth-lined sieve, discarding solids. Let broth cool to room temperature and refrigerate overnight. Remove any solidified fat from the surface (and save for cooking, if desired). Broth can be kept refrigerated for 2 days or frozen.

Tips:

  • Use a whole chicken: Roasting a whole chicken is the best way to get flavorful broth. The bones, skin, and meat all contribute to the flavor of the broth.
  • Roast the chicken at a high temperature: This will help to brown the chicken and develop its flavor.
  • Add vegetables and herbs to the roasting pan: This will help to infuse the broth with flavor. Common additions include onions, carrots, celery, garlic, and thyme.
  • Use a large pot: You'll need a large pot to hold the chicken, vegetables, and water.
  • Simmer the broth for at least an hour: This will help to extract the flavor from the chicken and vegetables.
  • Strain the broth: After simmering, strain the broth to remove the solids.
  • Use the broth immediately or freeze it for later use: Roasted chicken broth can be used in a variety of recipes, such as soups, stews, and sauces. It can also be frozen for up to 6 months.

Conclusion:

Roasted chicken broth is a delicious and versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of recipes. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a little planning, you can have a pot of flavorful roasted chicken broth on hand whenever you need it.
