Yield 4-6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (3 1/2-4-lb.) chicken
Kosher salt
1 head of garlic, halved crosswise, plus 4 cloves, thinly sliced
1 1/2 lb. carrots, scrubbed, cut in half
8 small shallots, peeled
1 (2") piece ginger, unpeeled, thinly sliced
2 Tbsp. unsalted butter
1 Tbsp. honey
2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
1 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 cup fresh lime juice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 250°F. Season chicken generously with salt inside and out. Place head of garlic inside cavity; tie legs together if desired. Let sit at least 5 minutes or chill, uncovered, up to 2 days.
  • Combine carrots, shallots, ginger, butter, and honey in a large Dutch oven or other heavy pot; season lightly with salt. Place chicken on top, nestling into vegetables so lid will sit tight. Cover; bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of breast registers 155°F, about 2 hours. Uncover and let rest 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cook oil and sliced garlic in a small saucepan over medium until garlic is lightly browned, 6-8 minutes. Add red pepper flakes and let cool. Stir in lime juice; season dressing with salt.
  • Increase oven temperature to 450°F. Place chicken on a rimmed baking sheet and roast until skin is browned and crisp, 10-14 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place pot over medium-high heat; bring juices to a simmer. Cook, reducing heat as needed, until vegetables are glazed, 10-12 minutes. Keep warm over low heat until chicken is done.
  • Serve chicken on top of vegetables with dressing drizzled over.

CHICKEN GINGER AND HONEY

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

6 tablespoons olive oil
5 pounds chicken breast, cut into strips
Salt and pepper
1 bok choy, cut into julienne strips
1 small daikon, cut into julienne strips
1/2 Chinese cabbage, cut into julienne strips
2 carrots, cut into julienne strips
2 tablespoons peeled and minced fresh ginger
1 teaspoon minced garlic
3 tablespoons honey
1 cup chicken stock
1 teaspoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons cold water
1/2 pound fried vermicelli egg noodles
1/2 cup minced fresh cilantro leaves
6 mint leaves, minced
1/3 cup pickled ginger

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. When the oil is hot, add the chicken strips and saute until chicken is just cooked through, about 4 to 5 minutes, depending on the size of the strips. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
  • Add 2 more tablespoons of olive oil to the skillet and heat over medium-high heat. Add the julienned vegetables and cook until crisp tender, about 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Remove the vegetables from the pan and set aside.
  • Add 2 more tablespoons of olive oil to the skillet, reduce the heat to medium, and then add the fresh ginger and garlic. Cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 to 2 minutes. Add the honey and chicken stock and let the sauce reduce slightly. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons cold water until dissolved. Add the cornstarch slurry to the sauce and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, or until sauce is thickened.
  • When the sauce has thickened, return the chicken and vegetables to the skillet and cook until just heated through. To serve, arrange the fried noodles as a base on each plate. Spoon the chicken, vegetables, and sauce over the noodles. Garnish with the cilantro, mint, and pickled ginger.

Tips:

  • Select the right chicken: For best results, use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs. If using chicken breasts, slice them into thin strips to ensure even cooking.
  • Use fresh ginger: Fresh ginger adds a vibrant, pungent flavor to the dish. Peel and grate the ginger finely to release its full flavor.
  • Honey selection: Opt for a high-quality honey with a delicate flavor. Avoid using dark, strong-flavored honey, as it can overpower the other ingredients.
  • Soy sauce: Use low-sodium soy sauce to control the saltiness of the dish. You can adjust the amount of soy sauce based on your taste preferences.
  • Garnish: Before serving, sprinkle some chopped green onions or sesame seeds on top of the chicken for an extra layer of flavor and visual appeal.

Chicken ginger and honey is an incredibly flavorful and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a main course or as part of a larger meal. With its sweet, savory, and slightly tangy flavor profile, this dish is sure to be a hit among family and friends. The simple and easy-to-follow recipe makes it accessible to home cooks of all skill levels.
