Roast Chicken With Lemon and Rosemary image

This is from Emeril Lagasse. I changed the recipe around a bit. The sauce is absolutely wonderful, and the chicken has lots of flavor. I served this with Recipe #72501.

Categories     Whole Chicken

Time 2h20m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 1/2-4 lbs chicken, I used a 7lb
1 1/2 tablespoons kosher salt
2 teaspoons cracked pepper
1 lemon, halved (I used 2)
2 bay leaves
6 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
4 sprigs rosemary, roughly chopped, plus 1 tbsp for gravy (I used approx 4 tbsp total)
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons butter, at room temperature
1 cup chicken stock
2 tablespoons roasted garlic (throw a head in the oven while cooking chicken, to roast)
1 cup dry white wine

Steps:

  • Emeril's directions were preheat oven to 500 degrees F and cook for 40-50 minutes, but I preheated the oven to 350 and cooked for approx 2 1/2 hours.
  • So, here's the directions.
  • Season the chicken inside and out with salt and pepper. Squeeze the lemon halves over the chicken and place the rinds inside the chicken. Place the bay leaves inside the chicken as well.
  • In a small bowl combine the garlic, rosemary, olive oil and butter. Rub the chicken with the blend and place in a roasting pan.
  • Roast until the chicken breast registers around 180-185 degree. Remove chicken saving juices (not fat).
  • Place roast pan over high heat adding stock, roasted garlic, wine and rosemary to the juices. Bring to a boil and reduce gravy by half, until somewhat thick. Serve with chicken and enjoy.
