PAN ROASTED CHICKEN WITH LEMON AND WHOLE GRAIN MUSTARD
This is my secret for success with a small roasted chicken. It's skin will be mahogany brown and crackling, while all of it's meat, white and dark alike, will be moist and flavorful. You can butterfly the chicken yourself if you don't have a butcher that will do it for you. It's easy with poultry shears. Working slowly and deliberately, use the shears to cut along each side of the backbone from neck to tail and remove it. Turn the bird breast-up, spread it open, and flatten it with a firm blow from the heel of your hand. Easy Peasy, and mighty delicious!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425°F Lay the bread slices in the bottom of a heavy-duty roasting pan in one layer. Brush with mustard, drizzle liberally with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Season the chicken all over with salt and pepper and place the pieces on the bread, arranging the white meat in the center and the dark meat and wings around the sides. Scatter the garlic cloves, bay leaf, and thyme over the chicken and drizzle everything with more oil (take care to drizzle the garlic cloves).
- Roast the chicken until it's lightly browned and the thigh juices run clear when pricked with a knife, about 50 minutes. If you like, you can crisp the skin by running the pan under the broiler for a minute, though you might want to rescue the garlic cloves before you do so they don't burn (if you don't plan to eat them, it doesn't matter so much). Serve the chicken with pieces of bread from the pan.
MUSTARD-ROASTED CHICKEN
I drooled on the page of the book I found this recipe in. That was a positive indication that I needed to make this dish. ;o) All Hail the Poultry! The chicken needs to marinate for at least four hours (or overnight), so be sure to start in advance. Time estimate doesn't include the 4+ hour marination, but DOES include the subsequent 1 hour marination period. Serve with roasted potatoes, sautéed spinach or rubber tires. It's all good.

PAN-ROASTED CHICKEN WITH LEMON AND MUSTARD
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Meanwhile, prepare the chicken. From the neck opening, gently ease your fingertips between the skin and the meat to loosen the skin all over the breast, taking care not to tear the skin. Insert the parsley sprig, basil leaves, or rosemary sprig under the skin. Season the chicken generously on all sides with salt and pepper. Heat an ovenproof skillet large enough to hold the chicken over high heat. Add the olive oil and swirl it in the skillet. As soon as you begin to see slight wisps of smoke, carefully place the chicken skin side down in the skillet. Sear the chicken, undisturbed, while reducing the heat little by little to medium, until its skin has turned golden brown and crisp, 5 to 7 minutes. With tongs, carefully turn the chicken skin side up. Put the skillet with the chicken into the preheated oven and cook until the chicken is deep golden brown and the juices run clear when the thickest part of the thigh meat is pierced with a thin skewer, 10 to 15 minutes more depending on its size. When the chicken is done, remove it from the skillet with tongs and transfer it to a cutting board. Pour off all but a thin glaze of fat from the skillet. Return the skillet to high heat, add the chicken stock and the lemon juice, stir and scrape with a wooden spoon to deglaze the pan deposits, and boil the liquid until it has reduced by half its volume, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn down the heat, add the mustard, and, stirring briskly with a wire whisk, add the remaining butter a piece at a time, to make a creamy sauce. Make sure each piece has been incorporated completely before adding the next. Season the sauce to taste with salt and pepper and stir in half of the parsley or basil. To serve, spoon the sauce into the centers of two to four heated serving plates. With a large, sharp knife, cut the chicken into two halves or four equal pieces. Place the chicken on the plates, sprinkle with the remaining parsley or basil, and serve.
Tips:
- Use a whole chicken: A whole chicken is more flavorful and juicy than chicken parts.
- Season the chicken well: Rub the chicken inside and out with a mixture of salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Roast the chicken at a high temperature: This will help the chicken to brown and crisp on the outside while remaining juicy on the inside.
- Baste the chicken with the mustard sauce: This will help to keep the chicken moist and flavorful.
- Let the chicken rest before carving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it even more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Mustard roasted chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion. The combination of the tangy mustard sauce and the roasted chicken is simply irresistible. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a meal that your family and friends will love.
