GREEK ROAST CHICKEN WITH LEMON-DILL POTATOES



Greek Roast Chicken with Lemon-Dill Potatoes image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
8 small skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs (2 1/2 to 2 3/4 pounds)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup pitted green olives, lightly smashed
4 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon zest, plus 2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 pound new potatoes, halved if large
1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
4 ounces feta cheese, crumbled

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450˚ F. Heat the olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken on both sides with salt and pepper and lay skin-side down in the skillet. Cook until the skin is well browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer skin-side up to a plate. Pour off all but about 1 tablespoon drippings into a small bowl and reserve.
  • Add the olives, garlic and oregano to the skillet and cook until the garlic is softened, about 2 minutes. Pour in the chicken broth and 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Return the chicken skin-side up to the skillet. Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast until the chicken is no longer pink near the bone, 12 to 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, put the potatoes in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water; add a few big pinches of salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until the potatoes are tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain and return to the pan. Add 1 tablespoon of the reserved chicken drippings, the lemon zest, half the dill and a big pinch each of salt and pepper and toss.
  • Divide the chicken and potatoes among plates. Stir the remaining 1 tablespoon lemon juice into the sauce in the skillet; season with salt and pepper, then stir in the remaining dill and spoon over the chicken and potatoes. Top with the feta.

Here's what you need: whole chicken, lemons, garlic, fresh rosemary, salt, pepper

Provided by Tasty

Categories     Dinner

Yield 5 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 whole chicken, based on the size of your slow cooker - a 1.3kg chicken should just about fit into a 3.5L slow cooker - while a 6.5L would probably fit a 2kg chicken
4 lemons
10 cloves garlic, 8 whole and 2 halved
4 sprigs fresh rosemary
salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Remove any giblets etc. from the cavity of the chicken, sometimes in a small bag.
  • Stuff chicken with 1 sprig of rosemary, 1 lemon (quartered) and 4 cloves garlic.
  • Season all sides of the chicken with salt and pepper.
  • Remove both ends of a lemon, cut in half to create very thick slices.
  • Line the bottom of the slow cooker with 4 lemon slices, 4 whole garlic cloves and a sprig of rosemary.
  • Put the chicken in the slow cooker.
  • Cut 2 garlic cloves in half and put all four pieces on top of the chicken along with the 2 remaining lemon slices.
  • Garnish with 1-2 more sprigs of rosemary. Put the lid on the slow cooker and set to high for 4 hours.
  • Place cooked chicken under the grill (broil) for 10 minutes to crisp the skin (optional).
  • Allow chicken to rest for 10 minutes before carving and serving. Leftover juices in the slow cooker are mostly lemon juice with a bit of chicken fat and can be used sparingly as a strongly flavoured sauce.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Chicken: Opt for a whole chicken or chicken breasts with skin for a flavorful and juicy result.
  • Prepare the Lemon-Dill Mixture: Finely chop fresh dill and zest a lemon, then combine them with melted butter, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. This mixture will infuse the chicken with a zesty and aromatic flavor.
  • Marinate the Chicken: Marinate the chicken in the lemon-dill mixture for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight. This allows the flavors to penetrate the chicken and enhance its taste.
  • Roast the Chicken: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and roast the chicken for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  • Let the Chicken Rest: Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a moist and tender chicken.
  • Garnish and Serve: Garnish the chicken with fresh dill and lemon slices before serving. Serve with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a salad for a complete meal.
