CRISP-SKINNED CHICKEN WITH ROSEMARY POTATOES



Crisp-Skinned Chicken with Rosemary Potatoes image

Kick up the classic combination of chicken, rosemary, and potatoes ever so slightly. The bird is rubbed with butter, salt, and -- the secret ingredient -- cornstarch. It's the key to the crunchy-crisp goodness of the skin. The potatoes, tossed with olive oil, develop a pale-golden crust while staying delectably tender within.

Time 1h45m

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 russet potatoes, peeled and cut crosswise, 3/4 inch thick
Coarse salt
Extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon cornstarch
1 whole chicken (about 4 1/2 pounds)
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened
1 small bunch fresh rosemary

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Cook potatoes in salted boiling water until tender, 11 to 13 minutes. Drain. Return potatoes to pot, and shake over low heat to dry and fluff. Coat with oil, and season with salt.
  • Mix together 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and the cornstarch. Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Rub skin with butter, and season with salt mixture. Stuff some rosemary into cavity. Pile remaining rosemary on a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Place chicken, breast side up, on rosemary, and tuck wings under. Tie legs together with kitchen twine. Scatter potatoes around chicken. Roast for 30 minutes. Remove from oven, and flip potatoes. Return to oven, rotating sheet. Roast until chicken juices run clear and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a thigh reaches 165 degrees, about 30 minutes more. Let chicken rest for 10 minutes before serving. If potatoes aren't golden, toss with rosemary, and return to oven.

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 tablespoons olive oil
3 large garlic cloves, minced
3 teaspoons dried oregano
2 1/4 pounds white-skinned potatoes, peeled, each cut into 6 long wedges
1 4-pound chicken, cut into 8 pieces
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Brush inside of large roasting pan with 2 tablespoons oil. Combine remaining 4 tablespoons oil, garlic, and 1 1/2 teaspoons oregano in bowl. Add potatoes and toss to coat. Sprinkle potatoes with salt and pepper. Sprinkle chicken with remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons oregano, salt, and pepper. Arrange chicken in single layer in center of prepared pan. Arrange potatoes around chicken. Drizzle chicken with lemon juice and any remaining oil mixture from bowl of potatoes.
  • Roast chicken and potatoes until chicken is cooked through and potatoes are tender, about 1 hour 10 minutes.

Tips:

  • To achieve crispy seaweed, choose nori sheets that are fresh, not stale. Fresh nori will yield a vibrant green color and a delightful crunch.
  • Cut the potatoes evenly. This will ensure they cook uniformly, resulting in tender insides and irresistibly crispy exteriors.
  • Don't overcrowd the roasting pan. Space the chicken and potatoes so they have enough room to roast, promoting even cooking and a golden brown exterior.
  • Roast the chicken and potatoes in a hot oven. This initial high temperature will help sear the chicken skin and crisp the potatoes.
  • Baste the chicken with melted butter throughout the cooking process. This step will keep the chicken juicy and prevent it from drying out.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is cooked thoroughly. Insert the thermometer into the thickest part of the thigh; it should read 165°F (74°C).
  • Let the chicken rest before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in tender and flavorful meat.
  • Garnish the dish with fresh herbs like thyme, rosemary, or parsley for an extra touch of flavor and visual appeal.

Conclusion:

This roast chicken with crunchy seaweed and potatoes is a culinary delight that combines the classic flavors of roasted chicken with the unique umami taste of crispy seaweed. The potatoes add a delightful textural contrast and a satisfying side dish. Whether you're hosting a dinner party or preparing a cozy family meal, this dish is sure to impress with its tantalizing flavors and vibrant presentation.
