Number Of Ingredients 10

1 ½ pounds baking potatoes
1 large onion, thinly sliced
⅓ cup Kikkoman Soy Sauce

2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 cloves garlic, pressed

Categories     main-dish

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (4 to 5 pound) free-range chicken
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 lemon, halved
1 head garlic, halved
1/4 bunch each fresh rosemary, thyme, and parsley
1/4 cup olive oil
11/2 pounds red new potatoes

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Rinse the chicken with cool water, inside and out, then pat it dry with paper towels. Season the cavity with salt and pepper, and then stuff the lemon, garlic, and herbs inside. Place the chicken, breast-side up, in a roasting pan. Tie the legs of the chicken together with kitchen twine to help hold its shape. Toss the potatoes around the chicken. Season the whole thing with a fair amount of salt and pepper and drizzle with olive oil. Roast the chicken and potatoes for 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Don't forget to baste the chicken with the drippings and rotate the pan every 20 minutes or so to insure a golden crispy skin. The chicken is done when an instant-read thermometer says 165 degrees F when inserted into the thickest part of the thigh (the legs of the chicken should wiggle easily from the sockets too.) Remove the chicken to a platter and let stand for 10 minutes, so the juices settle back into the meat before carving. Serve with the roasted potatoes on the side.

Yield Makes 4 to 6 servings (plus leftovers)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 (5-pound) roasting chickens
8 large sprigs fresh thyme plus 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
2 tablespoons coarse kosher salt
2 1/2 teaspoons hot smoked Spanish paprika* divided
1 1/2 pounds baby potatoes (1 to 1 1/2 inches in diameter)
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons olive oil
*Sometimes called hot Pimentón de La Vera; available at some supermarkets and at tienda.com.

Steps:

  • Butterfly the chicken.
  • Tuck wing tips behind shoulder. Transfer to large rimmed baking sheet. Using fingertips, separate skin from chicken over breasts and thighs. Insert 1 thyme sprig between skin and flesh over each breast and each thigh. Repeat with second chicken. Mix 2 tablespoons coarse kosher salt and 2 teaspoons paprika in small bowl. Sprinkle all over chickens.
  • Transfer uncovered chickens, skin side up, to refrigerator; chill at least 8 hours or overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Place potatoes in 11x7x2-inch baking dish. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon paprika. Sprinkle with salt and pepper; toss. Drizzle chicken with 2 teaspoons oil. Place chicken and potatoes in oven; roast until thermometer inserted into thickest part of thigh registers 175°F, about 1 hour. Let chickens rest 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, toss potatoes with 1 tablespoon chopped thyme. Return to oven and roast until tender and skins wrinkle slightly, about 5 minutes. Coarsely smash. Cut chickens into breast, wing, thigh, and leg pieces. Transfer to platter. Drizzle some drippings over; serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken. A whole chicken is ideal for this recipe, as it will cook evenly and provide plenty of meat. You can also use chicken breasts or thighs, but you may need to adjust the cooking time.
  • Use fresh herbs. Fresh herbs will give your chicken and potatoes the best flavor. If you don't have fresh herbs, you can use dried herbs, but use half the amount.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. If you overcrowd the pan, the chicken and potatoes will not cook evenly. Make sure there is enough space between the pieces of chicken and potatoes so that they can brown properly.
  • Roast the chicken and potatoes at a high temperature. This will help to create a crispy skin on the chicken and tender, fluffy potatoes.
  • Baste the chicken and potatoes with the pan juices. This will help to keep them moist and flavorful. You can also add a little bit of white wine or chicken broth to the pan juices for extra flavor.

Conclusion:

Roasted herb chicken and potatoes is a simple but delicious dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great dish to serve for company. The chicken is roasted until it is golden brown and crispy, and the potatoes are roasted until they are tender and fluffy. The herbs add a delicious flavor to the chicken and potatoes. This dish is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
