Best 8 Roast Chicken With Herbed Mushrooms Recipes

PAN-ROASTED CHICKEN WITH MUSHROOMS AND ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Season the chicken on both sides with a generous amount of salt and pepper. Place a cast-iron or regular ovenproof skillet on the stove over medium heat. Drizzle the pan with the oil and lay the chicken in the hot fat, skin-side down. Cook for about 5 minutes until the skin begins to set and crisp. Throw in the mushrooms, shallots, and rosemary. Stick the whole thing in the hot oven and roast for 15 minutes until the chicken is cooked, and the mushrooms and shallots are soft and roasted.
• The last thing to make is a quick sauce using the flavors left in the bottom of the skillet. Take all the stuff out of the pan and arrange on a dinner plate to keep warm while preparing the pan sauce. Pour out all but 1 tablespoon of the rendered chicken fat and return the skillet to the stovetop. Stir in the water and lemon juice and cook over medium heat, scraping up the flavors with a wooden spoon. Cook the liquid down to a syrup, about 5 minutes. Drizzle the pan sauce over the dish, season with salt and pepper.

In a small bowl, combine the soup, mushrooms, water, chives, mustard, lemon-pepper, salt, garlic salt, rosemary and thyme; pour over chicken., Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 8-10 minutes or until a thermometer reads 170°. Serve with noodles.

LEMON-HERB ROAST CHICKEN DINNER

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450°F. Spray 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish with cooking spray. In large bowl, mix melted butter, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and 1/2 teaspoon of the pepper. Stir in potatoes, carrots and onions. Pour into baking dish.
• Rub chicken all over with remaining 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Place thyme, rosemary, garlic and lemon wedges in cavity of chicken. If desired, tie legs together with 6-inch piece of cooking twine.
• Place chicken, breast side down, on top of potato and vegetable mixture. Roast 30 minutes; carefully turn chicken breast side up. Continue to roast 25 to 35 minutes longer, until legs move easily when lifted or twisted (at least 165°F in thickest part of thigh) and potatoes are tender.

CHICKEN ROASTED WITH MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Rub the chicken with olive oil and season it inside and out with salt and pepper.
• Quarter white or cremini mushrooms. Remove stems from shiitake mushrooms. Mix the mushrooms with the garlic, parsley and thyme; pack this mixture tightly into the cavity of the chicken. Tuck the wingtips behind the chicken and tie the legs together to secure the stuffing. Place the chicken on a rack in a roasting pan and place in the oven. Roast for an hour and 15 minutes.
• Remove the chicken from the oven and transfer it to a platter or cutting board. Pour all excess fat from the roasting pan and pour in the wine. Scoop the mushroom mixture out of the chicken and add it to the pan. Place the pan on top of the stove and heat, scraping the bottom of the pan. Season the mixture to taste with salt and pepper.
• Cut chicken in pieces and arrange on a platter. Spoon mushroom mixture around chicken and serve.

ROAST CHICKEN WITH HERBS

Steps:

• Place the rosemary, sage, marjoram, thyme, chives, bay leaves, and caraway on a chopping board. Chop everything together to achieve a uniform texture. In a small bowl, combine the herbs with 2 tablespoons of the lemon juice, the olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of the pepper. Set aside.
• Clean the birds very thoroughly inside and out and dry all over with paper towels. Pour 3 tablespoons of the lemon juice over each chicken and inside the cavity. Rub the herb mixture all over the inside and outside of both birds. Place the reserved lemon rinds inside the cavities. Let the birds marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or up to 12.
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
• Sprinkle the remaining teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper over both birds. Place the birds, breast side down, side by side, in opposite directions on an oiled rack over a roasting pan. Cook for 30 minutes, then turn the chickens breast side up and reduce the heat to 375 degrees. Cook an additional 30 to 40 minutes or until the skin is golden, juices run clear, and the internal temperature is 160 degrees. Allow the birds to rest for 15 to 20 minutes before carving and serving.

ROAST CHICKEN WITH WILD MUSHROOMS & GARLIC BUTTER

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Mix together the garlic, butter, lemon zest and juice, and half the thyme. Season well.
• Gently separate the skin from the chicken breast by easing your fingers between the two, then push as much butter mixture under the skin as possible. Rub whatever is left into the creases between the thighs and the breast.
• Heat the oil in a large casserole dish that will fit the chicken. Add the onions, mushrooms and bay leaves, cook over a medium heat for a few mins.
• Rub the chicken with the remaining thyme leaves and some salt and pepper. Pour the wine and 20ml warm water into the cavity of the chicken and place in the dish. Cook in the oven for 1 hr 40 mins; it will brown and steam at the same time and the juices will rehydrate the mushrooms.
• Remove from the oven and drain any liquid from inside the chicken back into the dish. Place the chicken on a board to rest. Meanwhile, bring the juices to the boil, season to taste and stir in the chopped parsley. Serve the chicken with the mushrooms, onions and pan juices.

GARLIC AND HERB ROASTED CHICKEN WITH MUSHROOM GRAVY

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325°F In ungreased 12x8" (2 quart) baking dish, combine mushrooms and onion; spread evenly in the bottom of the baking dish.
• Remove and discard giblets and neck (or save for another use) from the chicken body cavity. Rinse chicken inside and out with cold water; drain. Pat dry with paper towels. Rub inside of the chicken cavity with seasoning salt.
• Close neck cavity by bringing loose skin over the opening and holding in place with metal skewer. Twist wing tips under back.
• In small bowl, combine butter, parsley, thyme, rosemary, and garlic; mix well. Spread over chicken and inside the cavity.
• I usually place additional fresh rosemary and thyme sprigs in the cavity before closing. With string, tie legs and tail together. Place the chicken in the baking dish over the mushrooms and onion.
• Bake at 325F for 2 to 2 1/2 hours. Chicken is done when drumstick moves easily up and down and twists in socket, and when chicken is fork-tender and juices run clear. Don't pierce the skin too often or you'll lose some moisture in the breasts.
• Remove chicken from baking dish; place on serving dish or carving board. Cover and let stand 10 minutes before slicing.
• Remove mushrooms (and onion, if desired) into saucepan. Pour pan drippings into 2 cup measuring cup. Remove as much fat as possible from the top. Add enough chicken broth to equal 1 1/2 cups of liquid.
• Mix 1/4 cup water with flour and blend well.
• Over medium heat, add flour mixture to mushrooms, stirring to combine and cook for 2 minutes. Add some of the reserved liquid if necessary to keep from getting too pasty.
• Add remaining reserved liquid to the mushrooms, whisk gently and bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat slightly and cook gray until thickened. Season with salt and pepper as needed.
• Notes for garlic lovers: I cut the tops off two garlic heads (use more or less to your individual tastes and/or the amount of potatoes you're making) and place inside the chicken cavity before closing. Then, when making my mashed potatoes, I squeeze the garlic pulp into potatoes with some butter and chicken broth.

ROAST CHICKEN WITH HERBS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Season chicken cavities with salt and pepper. Dividing evenly, stuff with lemon, garlic, and sprigs of thyme and rosemary (reserve a few sprigs of each for garnish).
• With a heavy knife, coarsely chop necks, and scatter in a large roasting pan. Place chickens, breast side up, on a rack set in pan. Using cotton kitchen twine, securely tie legs together; tuck wing tips underneath chickens.
• Rub chickens with butter; season with salt. Roast, occasionally brushing chickens with pan juices, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in thickest part of thigh (avoiding bone) registers 165, about 1 hour. Transfer chickens to a platter; cover loosely with aluminum foil, and let rest 10 to 15 minutes before carving. If desired, prepare Pan Sauce to serve with chickens.
