Time 2h10m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 medium red onion, roughly chopped
1/2 cup roughly chopped fresh parsley
1/2 cup roughly chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh tarragon
1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh dill
1/4 cup chopped walnuts
3 cloves garlic
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 cup plain yogurt
1 6- to 7-pound roasting chicken
2 pounds plum tomatoes, halved lengthwise

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Pulse the onion, parsley, cilantro, tarragon, 2 tablespoons dill, the walnuts and garlic in a food processor. Add 3 tablespoons olive oil, the vinegar, 2 teaspoons salt, and pepper to taste; pulse until smooth.
  • Stir half of the herb paste with the yogurt in a small bowl; cover and refrigerate.
  • Season the chicken inside and out with salt and pepper. Loosen the skin with your fingers; rub some of the remaining herb paste under the skin and the rest on the outside of the bird. Truss the chicken. Place in a roasting pan; roast until the skin turns golden, about 30 minutes.
  • Reduce the oven temperature to 375 degrees. Toss the tomatoes with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a bowl; season with salt and pepper. Baste the chicken with the drippings and add the tomatoes, cut-side down, to the pan. Continue roasting until a thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the thigh registers 155 degrees, about 1 hour. Season with salt and pepper; let the chicken rest 10 minutes before carving.
  • Arrange the chicken and tomatoes on a platter; sprinkle with the remaining 2 tablespoons dill. Serve with the yogurt sauce.

This was my first time making herb roasted chicken with melted tomatoes. However, It was delicious! The chicken was cooked perfectly and the tomatoes added a wonderful flavor. I will definitely be making this again.

This recipe was a bit of a disappointment. The chicken was dry and the melted tomatoes were bland. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I ended up burning the chicken. I would recommend it only for experienced cooks.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the melted tomatoes were delicious. I would recommend adding more butter or olive oil to the chicken before roasting.
