Nonni's Sunday Chicken image

My Nonna always served this with a simple green salad and a risotto Milanaise on Sundays. We now know that eating chicken fats are unhealthy, but I would diet all month just to have this.

Time 2h10m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 4 lb whole chickens
8 clove garlic(large)
1 bunch fresh rosemary
1 bunch fresh sage
4 Tbsp olive oil
1 can(s) chicken broth (college inn or swanson)
1/2 c dry white wine
several dash(es) salt and pepper as desired
1-2 loaves of crusty italian bread

Steps:

  • 1. Nonni's Roasted Chicken Wash and dry chickens. Place in a large roasting pan (big enough for both birds). Rub each bird all over with the olive oil. Fill the cavities of each bird with 2 whole cloves of garlic, and ½ bunch each of rosemary and sage, reserve some herbs for the tops of the birds. Rub the remaining chopped garlic and herbs on the outside of the chickens. Season with salt and pepper. Roast at 325 degrees until legs move easily (2 hours approximately). Remove chickens to a platter to rest. Add some the white wine and the chicken broth to the drippings in the pan. Scrape up all the bits of goodness from the pan and simmer. While the 'au jus' is simmering, cut each chicken into 8 pieces, place on a serving platter. Serve the sauce separately with the Italian bread for dunking.

This was the worst chicken recipe I've ever tried. The chicken was dry and tasteless, and the sauce was watery and bland.

This was my first time making chicken this way and it turned out perfect! The skin was crispy and the meat was fall-off-the-bone tender.
