Time 1h55m

Yield 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (5 to 6-pound) roasting chicken
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 large bunch fresh thyme
4 lemons
3 heads garlic, cut in 1/2 crosswise
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1/2 pound sliced bacon
1 cup white wine
1/2 cup chicken stock

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Remove the chicken giblets. Rinse the chicken inside and out. Remove any excess fat and leftover pinfeathers and pat the outside dry. Place the chicken in a large roasting pan. Liberally salt and pepper the inside of the chicken. Stuff the cavity with the thyme, reserving enough thyme to garnish the chicken dish, 1 lemon, halved, and 2 halves of the garlic. Brush the outside of the chicken with the butter and sprinkle again with salt and pepper. Tie the legs together with kitchen string and tuck the wing tips under the body of the chicken. Cut 2 of the lemons in quarters and scatter the quarters and remaining garlic around the chicken. Lay the bacon slices over the chicken to cover.
  • Roast the chicken for 1 hour. Remove the bacon slices from the top of the chicken and set aside. Continue roasting the chicken for an additional 1/2 hour, or until the juices run clear when you cut between a leg and thigh. Remove to a platter and cover with aluminum foil while you prepare the gravy.
  • Remove all but 2 tablespoons of the fat from the bottom of the pan. Add the wine and chicken stock and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat, and simmer for 5 minutes, or until reduced by half.
  • Slice the chicken on a platter. Garnish the chicken platter with the bacon slices, roasted garlic, reserved thyme and 1 lemon, sliced. Serve with the gravy.

ROASTED GARLIC-GLAZED CHICKEN WITH LEMON-HERB SAUCE



Roasted Garlic-Glazed Chicken With Lemon-Herb Sauce image

Recipe courtesy From Emeril's Kitchens, by Emeril Lagasse. Different way of preparing chicken and best part is that it's all done in 1 or 2 pans depending on how large of an oven proof skillet you have. The herbs and the garlic glaze are just heavenly to smell and devour. This was a huge hit in my home and even the kid enjoyed it. Prep time includes the 1 hour for roasting the garlic as this can be done ahead of time.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
One 4-pound roasting chicken, rinsed, dried and giblets removed
3 sprigs fresh rosemary
1 lemon, sliced

  • Sprinkle the cavity of the chicken with salt and pepper. Stuff the cavity with the rosemary sprigs and lemon slices. Place the chicken in the V-rack-fitted roasting pan. Sprinkle the outside of the chicken with salt and pepper. Tie the drumsticks together using butcher's twine. Brush the outside of the chicken with about half of the honey glaze.

ROASTED CHICKEN WITH LEMON-GLAZED RHUBARB



Roasted Chicken With Lemon-Glazed Rhubarb image

A tangy rhubarb-lemon glaze gives roasted chicken a touch of sweetness and a deeply golden, crunchy skin. The rhubarb, which is cooked in the oven along with the chicken (but in a separate pan), becomes syrupy and soft, scented with thyme, coriander and fresh ginger. Some of the rhubarb mixture is brushed over the bird to help bronze its skin, while the rest makes a chutney-like condiment to serve alongside. If you have thin-skinned, mildly sweet Meyer lemons, you can skip the blanching in Step 3 and add the slices straight from the rhubarb pan. Regular lemons, especially those with a lot of the bitter white pith, really benefit from a brief blanch. This dish is wonderful over polenta or rice, which can absorb both chicken and rhubarb juices. Add a simple green salad (spinach is especially nice here), and dinner is done.

Categories     dinner, poultry, main course

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more as needed
1 1/2 teaspoons ground coriander
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
3/4 teaspoon finely grated fresh ginger
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 large garlic clove, grated or minced
1 (3 1/2- to 4 1/2-pound) chicken, patted dry
3 thyme sprigs, plus more for garnish
1 medium red onion, halved and sliced 1/4-inch thick
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
Kosher salt, as needed
1/2 lemon
1 pound rhubarb, sliced crosswise 1/2-inch thick
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 (2-inch) piece of fresh ginger, peeled and thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon coriander seeds
3 thyme sprigs

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine salt, ground coriander, lemon zest, ginger, pepper and garlic. Rub it all over chicken, including inside the cavity and under the skin. Stuff thyme sprigs into cavity.
  • Place chicken on a rimmed baking sheet, and marinate, uncovered, in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or preferably overnight.
  • Prepare the rhubarb: Bring a small pot of salted water to a boil. Thinly slice the lemon into 1/8-inch rounds. Remove any seeds. Quarter lemon rounds into triangles. Blanch lemon pieces in boiling water for 2 minutes, then drain.
  • In a 9-by-9-inch baking dish or a pie pan, toss together blanched lemons, rhubarb, sugar, ginger, coriander seeds, a pinch of salt and thyme sprigs. Let fruit macerate at room temperature for 30 minutes to 1 hour. (You can do this while the chicken is marinating.)
  • When ready to roast, arrange an oven rack in the center of oven and another one below. Heat oven to 425 degrees. Toss onions in medium mixing bowl with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt, and set aside.
  • Generously drizzle olive oil over chicken. Roast chicken on the center rack and rhubarb below for 20 to 25 minutes, until rhubarb is glazed and syrupy.
  • Remove rhubarb and lower oven temperature to 400 degrees. Brush or spoon some of the rhubarb syrup all over chicken. Scatter red onion pieces around chicken on baking sheet, then continue to roast until skin is golden and cooked through and onions are browned, about 25 to 35 minutes longer.
  • Let chicken rest for 10 minutes. Carve and serve with onions, rhubarb and more thyme for garnish.

SPICY GLAZED CHICKEN BREASTS



Spicy Glazed Chicken Breasts image

This one-skillet chicken has a spicy, pleasantly tart and punchy glaze that's built on frying a little tomato paste in garlic- and almond-infused oil, then deglazing with lemon juice. It tastes like you sun-dried lots of tomatoes for weeks. (But you don't need to do that.) The final flourish is the crunchy fried almonds and garlic. You could skip them, but they add a special touch that belies how fast the dish comes together. Besides chicken, the dish also can be made with any other ingredient that browns well, like tofu or even broccoli.

Provided by Ali Slagle

Categories     poultry, main course

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (1½ to 2 pounds total)
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup sliced almonds
3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons tomato paste (preferably double concentrate)
1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
1 tablespoon lemon juice

Steps:

  • Pat chicken dry and pound to an even ½-inch thickness with a heavy skillet or meat pounder.
  • In a large (12-inch) skillet, combine the oil, almonds and garlic. Season with salt, then set over high heat. Once the mixture starts to sizzle, reduce heat to medium and cook, swirling occasionally, until light golden, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and use a slotted spoon to transfer the almonds and garlic to a paper towel-lined plate. (Keep the oil in the skillet.)
  • Set the skillet over medium-high. Season the chicken all over with 1 teaspoon salt, then add to the skillet and cook until browned underneath and opaque halfway up the sides, 3 to 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and transfer the chicken to a plate, seared side up.
  • With the skillet still over low heat, add the tomato paste and red-pepper flakes and cook, stirring constantly and scraping up browned bits, until the paste is a shade darker and starts to stick to the skillet, 1 to 2 minutes. Return the chicken, as well as any accumulated juices, seared side up to the skillet, cover, and cook until the chicken is cooked through, 4 to 6 minutes. (The moisture from the chicken will keep the tomato paste from burning, but if you're concerned, add a teaspoon of water as a preventative measure.)
  • Uncover, add the lemon juice, then flip and drag the chicken through the tomato-lemon glaze to coat all sides. Transfer to plates, spoon over any remaining glaze and sprinkle with the fried almonds and garlic.

SPICY HONEY-ROASTED CHICKEN



Spicy Honey-Roasted Chicken image

A weekend favorite, we call this 'sticky' chicken at our house, since the roasted spices and honey form a sticky, sweet and spicy coating during roasting. Wonderful when paired with a fresh green salad!

Provided by KDcook

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Chicken     Whole Chicken Recipes

Time 2h15m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (6 pound) whole roasting chicken
½ cup honey
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 ½ teaspoons ground cumin
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons butter, melted

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Rinse and pat dry the chicken; place in roasting pan.
  • In a bowl, mix together the honey, chili powder, cumin, cayenne pepper, salt, and garlic powder. Using your hands, rub the honey mixture all over the chicken. Baste chicken with the melted butter.
  • Roast the chicken in the preheated oven until the skin begins to brown, 30 to 45 minutes. Baste the chicken with juices in the roasting pan.
  • Reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), and roast until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Baste occasionally during roasting. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone should read 180 degrees F (80 degrees C). Remove the chicken from the oven, cover with a doubled sheet of aluminum foil, and allow to rest in a warm area for 10 minutes before slicing.

Provided by RedVinoGirl

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 25m

Yield 2 , 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
2 teaspoons garlic, minced
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons honey
2 teaspoons Tabasco sauce
1 teaspoon lemon zest, minced
2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Season chicken with salt and pepper. Stir together panko, garlic and oregano; place in a shallow dish. Dredge both sides of chicken in panko mixture.
  • Combine lemon juice, honey, tabasco, and zest for glaze in a small bowl, set aside.
  • Heat oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add chicken; saute' until browned on both sides and cooked through, about 12 minutes. Remove chicken from the skillet.
  • Add lemon-honey glaze to the skillet; reduce until syrupy, less than a minute. Return chicken to the skillet, flipping the pieces once to coat them with glaze.
  • Serve.

Tips:

  • Use a whole chicken: A whole chicken is more flavorful and juicy than chicken parts. If you don't have a whole chicken, you can use chicken breasts or thighs, but the cooking time will be shorter.
  • Season the chicken generously: Season the chicken with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices. This will help to enhance the flavor of the chicken.
  • Roast the chicken in a hot oven: Roasting the chicken in a hot oven will help to create a crispy skin and juicy meat. The ideal roasting temperature is 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Glaze the chicken with the lemon glaze: The lemon glaze will help to add flavor and moisture to the chicken. Apply the glaze to the chicken during the last 15 minutes of cooking.
  • Let the chicken rest before serving: Let the chicken rest for at least 10 minutes before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.

Conclusion:

This roasted chicken with spicy lemon glaze is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The chicken is juicy and flavorful, and the lemon glaze adds a bright and tangy flavor. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
