JUICY ROASTED CHICKEN
My grandmother's recipe for roasted chicken. We are German and she used to do it this way all the time. I never have had a chicken this juicy before; this little trick works and makes the people eating it go silent. It's funny. We nibble on the celery after.

MARK BITTMAN'S ROAST CHICKEN PARTS WITH BUTTER OR OLIVE OIL (PLU
This was given on the web as the simplest chicken recipe there is and perhaps the easiest as well. As if that isn't enough, you can change the flavoring every time you make it so you'll never get tired of it, either. For example, you may substitute a combination of herbs for the single herb in the ingredients. Also check the variations for other flavorings. In the comments following this recipe some responders criticized the name of this recipe as being gross, citing the "chicken parts." If you come up with a better name, I hope you'll share it with the rest of us!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Put the oil or butter in a roasting pan and put the pan in the oven for a couple of minutes, until the oil is hot or the butter melts. Add the chicken and turn it couple of times in the fat, leaving it skin side up. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and return the pan to the oven.
- After the chicken has cooked for 15 minutes, toss about 1/4 of the herb or herb mixture over it and turn the pieces. Sprinkle on another quarter of the herb and roast for another 10 minutes.
- Turn the chicken over (now skin side up again), add another quarter of the herb, and cook until the chicken is done (you'll see clear juices if you make a small cut in the meat near the bone) a total of 30-40 minutes at most. Garnish with the remaining herb and skim excess fat from the pan juices if necessary; serve, with some of the juices spooned over it.
- Variations:
- Add several cloves of garlic (20 wouldn't be too many).
- Add a cup or so of chopped onion, shallot, or leek.
- Add a cup or so of sliced fresh mushrooms, after the first 15 minutes of roasting.
- Add 2-3 lemons (oranges and limes are good, too). When the chicken is done, squeeze the hot lemon juice over it.
- Use Compound Butter, Flavored Oil, or a Vinaigrette from the beginning of the cooking or as a basting sauce during the cooking.
- Stir in a dollop of grainy French-style mustard when the chicken is done.
- Add a couple handfuls of cherry tomatoes and some black olives after turning the chicken skin side up again.
- Stir in a cup of any salsa in the last 10 minutes of cooking or spoon on top of the cooked chicken before serving.
DAD'S ROAST CHICKEN -- MY WAY WITH A PARSLEY LEMON JUICE OIL
My dad's roast chicken is really simple. He stuffs a whole chicken with fresh herbs and seasons it with salt and pepper, then pops it in the oven. My version, which uses chicken that's already cut into serving pieces instead of a whole chicken, is less work and cooks a lot faster and more evenly. I've also spruced up the flavor with some grated lemon rind and finish it off with a fresh, colorful and tangy oil for drizzling over the finished chicken. Dad ? your chicken's good but I may have one up on you on this one!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degree F.
- Trim off any excess skin or fat from the chicken. Cut off and discard the wing tips. Place the chicken pieces in an 11 by 13-inch baking pan, or any pan that that they fit in without crowding. Season the chicken pieces generously with salt, pepper, olive oil, the herbs, and the lemon zest. Toss through all the seasonings and then arrange the chicken piece skin side up in the pan. You can season the chicken pieces and set them up in the roaster up to a day before you cook them. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate.
- Roast until the skin is nicely browned and there is no pink near the thigh bone and the juices run clear, about 35 to 40 minutes. Check both white meat and dark meat. If the white meat is done before the dark meat, take it out and set it on the serving plate until the dark meat is done.
- For the parsley drizzle, wash and dry the parsley. Remove the leaves from the stems and chop the leaves finely. Combine the remaining ingredients in a bowl and use immediately to garnish the roast chicken.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 385 degrees F (196 degrees C).
- Pour olive oil into a large bowl; toss potatoes, carrots, bite-size pieces of celery, and 3/4 of the sliced onion in the oil to coat. Set remaining onion aside. Transfer oiled vegetables to a large cast iron skillet.
- Rinse chicken and pat thoroughly dry with paper towels. Generously season the chicken, inside and out, with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Place the remaining 1/4 of the sliced onion, 1/4 cup margarine, lemon slices, 1 teaspoon minced garlic, and large pieces of celery into the cavity of the chicken.
- Place the chicken atop the oiled vegetables; scatter remaining 1/4 cup of margarine pieces and 1 2/3 tablespoon minced garlic in small amounts around the vegetables.
- Roast chicken and vegetables in the preheated oven until the skin is browned and crisp, the vegetables are tender, and an instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a thigh reads 165 degrees F (75 degrees C), about 1 hour and 45 minutes. Let chicken rest for 10 minutes before carving and serving with vegetables.

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken parts: For this recipe, bone-in, skin-on chicken parts work best. They'll stay moist and juicy during roasting.
- Season the chicken generously: Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika to season the chicken. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste.
- Roast the chicken at a high temperature: This will help the skin crisp up and the meat cook evenly.
- Don't overcrowd the baking sheet: Make sure there's enough space between the chicken pieces so that they can cook evenly.
- Roast the chicken until it's cooked through: The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the chicken rest before carving: This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
This oven-roasted chicken parts recipe is an easy and delicious way to prepare chicken. The chicken is roasted until it's crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. It's a great meal for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.
