ROAST CHICKEN WITH VEGETABLES



Roast Chicken with Vegetables image

New cooks are intimidated by the idea of roasting a chicken, but nothing could be simpler. If you roast the chicken with some vegetables in the same pan for about an hour, you will have a moist, golden bird and savory accompaniments - all ready to eat at the same time. While they cook, you can set the table, watch the news, maybe make a dessert.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

8 whole carrots
1 teaspoon black pepper
2 medium-size yellow onions 4 sprigs fresh or 1 tablespoon dried rosemary
8 small white or red potatoes (about 1H inches in diameter)
1 whole chicken, about 3 1/2 pounds
3 teaspoons salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Preparing the Vegetables Peel the carrots and cut them crosswise into 1 1/2-inch-long pieces. Cut the thicker pieces in half lengthwise as well. Peel each onion and cut into quarters. Wash the potatoes under cold water to get rid of any dirt. Leave them whole and unpeeled. Scatter the carrots, onions, and potatoes on the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking or roasting pan. Sprinkle 1 1/2 teaspoons of the salt and 1/2 teaspoon of the pepper over them, and lay 2 sprigs of the rosemary on top. If you are using dried rosemary, put 1 tablespoon in the palm of your hand and crumble it over the vegetables.
  • Preparing the Chicken The giblets, which consist of the liver, gizzard, and heart, plus the neck, are usually in a package inside the cavity of the chicken, between the legs. Remove them and discard or refrigerate them to use later. If there is a pale-yellow chunk of fat on either side of the cavity, pull or cut it off and discard. Hold the chicken under cold running water and rinse it inside and out. Shake off excess water and pat dry with paper towels. Sprinkle the remaining 11/2 teaspoons of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of pepper over the outside of the chicken, rubbing them all over the skin. Set the chicken, the breast side facing up, on top of some of the vegetables, with the remaining ones surrounding the bird. Insert a dial-type (not instant-read) thermometer into the breast, taking care that the rod of the thermometer does not touch any bones.
  • Roasting the Chicken Put the chicken in the center of the oven and set the timer for 30 minutes. When the timer rings, remove the pan from the oven and, using a large spoon, turn over the vegetables that surround the chicken. Don't bother with the vegetables under the chicken. Return the pan to the oven and set the timer for 30 more minutes. After 30 minutes, take the chicken out of the oven to check for doneness. Insert the tip of a small paring knife into the meat of the thigh where it attaches to the body. If the juices that run out are pink, the chicken needs to continue cooking for another 10 to 15 minutes. If the juices are clear, it is done. The meat thermometer should show a temperature of 170 degrees F to 180 degrees F when the chicken is done.
  • Carving the Chicken Carve the chicken according to the instructions on the preceding page. Scoop the vegetables out of the roasting pan and onto a serving platter. Remove the fat from the pan juices. Arrange the cut chicken pieces on top of vegetables, spoon some pan juices over the chicken and vegetables, scatter the 2 remaining rosemary sprigs on top and bring the dish to the table for serving.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 whole chicken (about 1 3/4 kilograms/3 3/4 pounds)
5 garlic cloves, skin on, divided
1 teaspoon finely chopped parsley
1 teaspoon finely chopped woody herbs, such as rosemary, thyme, sage, and/or savory
3 tablespoons (42 grams) unsalted butter, room temperature, divided
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 lemon
1 large red onion
6 to 8 sprigs of rosemary, thyme, sage, and/or savory, divided
1/2 buttercup squash, cut into wedges
3 large carrots, cut into 5-centimeter (about 2-inch) pieces
1/2 small cauliflower, cut into medium-sized florets
1/2 bulb fennel (one whole if it's small), root removed and cut into wedges
4 medium yellow potatoes
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
2 1/4 cups low-sodium chicken broth, divided
1/4 cup dry white wine, optional
2 tablespoons flour

Steps:

  • Set your oven rack to the bottom third of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Pat the inside and outside of the chicken dry with paper towel.
  • Peel and finely mince one clove of garlic and add it to a small bowl along with the chopped herbs. Mash in 1 tablespoon of butter and season with salt and pepper.
  • Gently separate the chicken skin from the breast meat using a spoon and divide the garlic herb butter under the skin of each breast, smoothing it to an even layer. Season the inside and outside of the chicken well with salt and pepper.
  • Cut the lemon in half, peel and slice the onion into eight wedges through the root, and smash and peel one garlic clove. Stuff the lemon and garlic into the cavity of the chicken along with one wedge of onion and two sprigs of herbs. Tie the legs together with a piece of kitchen twine and tuck the wings underneath the bird, then set the chicken aside at room temperature for 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Transfer the remaining onion, garlic and herb sprigs to a roasting pan along with the roughly chopped vegetables. Quarter the potatoes and add it along with 2 1/2 tablespoons of oil to the pan. Season well with salt and pepper and toss to coat.
  • Shake into an even layer and place the chicken on top of the vegetables. Drizzle the remaining oil over the chicken and rub it in to coat. Pour 1/4 cup of chicken broth and the white wine over the vegetables.
  • Roast the chicken, uncovered, for 60 to 75 minutes, or until a thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the thigh reads 165 degrees F and the vegetables are tender.
  • Remove the chicken and the vegetables to a serving platter and tent with aluminum foil to keep warm and rest while you make the gravy.
  • Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat in the roasting pan. Add the flour, whisk, and cook for 1 minute. While whisking, slowly add in the remaining 2 cups of chicken broth. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 to 10 minutes, or until the gravy reaches your desired consistency. Serve alongside the chicken and roasted vegetables.

ROAST CHICKEN AND VEGETABLES



Roast Chicken and Vegetables image

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     dinner, weekday, main course

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil or softened butter
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme, rosemary, marjoram, oregano or sage leaves, or a combination
Salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 whole chicken, 3 to 4 pounds, trimmed of excess fat
1 1/2 to 2 pounds small waxy red or white potatoes, peeled, or larger potatoes peeled and cut into 1/2- to 1-inch chunks, or other vegetables
Chopped parsley leaves for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a bowl, mix olive oil or butter, herbs, salt and pepper. Put chicken breast side up in a roasting pan. Toss half the herb-oil mixture with potatoes, scatter them in pan around chicken and put pan in oven. Roast about 20 minutes, and spoon some more herb-oil mixture over chicken and potatoes. Shake pan so potatoes turn and cook evenly.
  • After 10 minutes shake pan, and baste again; breast should be starting to brown. Reduce heat to 325, baste again and roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of thigh reads 155 degrees or more. Total roasting time will be 50 to 70 minutes.
  • Remove chicken from pan, and taste a potato; if not quite done, raise heat to 425 degrees, and roast (or broil) while letting chicken rest and carving it. Serve, garnished with parsley, with potatoes scattered around it.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: Opt for a free-range or organic chicken for better flavor and quality.
  • Prep the chicken: Remove the giblets and pat the chicken dry inside and out. Season the cavity with salt, pepper, and herbs like thyme or rosemary.
  • Roast the chicken at a high temperature: This will help create a crispy skin and juicy meat. Start by roasting the chicken at 425°F (220°C) for 30 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue roasting until the chicken is cooked through.
  • Roast the vegetables separately: This will ensure that the vegetables are cooked evenly and don't overcook. Toss the vegetables with olive oil, salt, and pepper, and roast them at 425°F (220°C) for 20-30 minutes, or until tender.
  • Make a flavorful gravy: Use the pan drippings from the chicken and vegetables to make a delicious gravy. Simply add some flour or cornstarch to the pan drippings and whisk until thickened. Season the gravy with salt, pepper, and herbs, and simmer for a few minutes until heated through.

Conclusion:

This classic roast chicken with vegetables is a delicious and easy meal that's perfect for any occasion.
