Your Favorite Stuffing or mine

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400. Place a large frying pan over over heat. Add 1 tablespoon of oil. Add carrots, celery, onions, garlic and salt and pepper. Can do this in batches if needed. Allow vegetables to brown and caramelize then place in large Dutch oven. Sprinkle inside and out of chicken with salt and pepper and paprika. Then place the chicken on the hot frying pan and brown both sides. Place chicken in Dutch oven over the vegetables and if desired stuff the inside with bread stuffing of choice. Pour wine and broth over top and cover and place in oven. Cook for about 40 minutes, then uncover and cook for another 15 minutes or so to allow skin to brown and crisp. Chicken is done when a thermometer reads 165F. If you stuffed the chicken, it is ideal for the stuffing to reach a temp of 170, it is best to remove it from the cavity and let it cook a little longer on its own. I personally like it crispy so this works for me.

Tips:

  • Select a Plump Chicken: Choose a chicken that is plump and has a healthy appearance. It should be free from any bruises or discoloration.
  • Stuffing Preparation: Prepare the stuffing mixture ahead of time to allow the flavors to meld. Ensure the stuffing is not too moist or too dry.
  • Seasoning: Generously season the inside and outside of the chicken with salt, pepper, and herbs. This will enhance the flavor of the chicken.
  • Trussing: Trussing the chicken helps to keep the stuffing in place and prevents it from falling out during cooking. Use kitchen twine to secure the legs and wings.
  • Cooking Temperature: Roast the chicken at a high temperature initially to sear the skin and then reduce the heat to allow the chicken to cook evenly throughout.
  • Basting: Baste the chicken with the pan juices or melted butter during cooking to keep it moist and flavorful.
  • Resting: Once the chicken is cooked, let it rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful chicken.
