CHICKEN BREASTS IN FOIL WITH ROSEMARY AND OLIVE OIL

Steps:

• Tear off two sheets of aluminum foil, each about 18 inches square, and place one on top of the other. Use 1 tablespoon of the olive oil to smear a patch in the center of the foil, large enough to hold the chicken side by side. Make a bed of the spinach in the center, then top with the chicken breasts, salt and pepper to taste the rosemary sprigs and leaves, and another tablespoon of oil. Sprinkle the lemon zest and juice over the chicken.
• Fold the foil over the chicken onto itself and crimp the edges as tightly as possible by making 1- or 2-inch folds, one after the other, each sealing the other. Seal the package very tightly, but leave plenty of room around the chicken. (You can prepare the recipe up to 3 hours in advance to this point; refrigerate the package.)
• Place a skillet large enough to hold the package over high heat. A minute later, add the remaining oil, then pour out all but a film. Put the package in the skillet; it will sizzle. About 2 minutes later, the package will expand like a balloon; be careful of the escaping steam. Cook for 5 minutes longer from that point.
• Remove the package from the heat, again taking care to avoid any escaping steam. Let rest for 1 minute, then cut a slit down the length of the top with a knife. Use a knife and fork to open up the package, then spoon the chicken, spinach, and juices onto a plate and serve.

ROAST CHICKEN WITH ROSEMARY AND POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Using a mandoline, a handheld slicer, or a sharp knife, thinly slice the potatoes into rounds about 1/8 inch (3 mm) thick.
• Overlap the potato slices in 2 layers in a large roasting pan or 9-by-13-inch (23-by-33-cm) baking dish. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of the oil and season generously with salt and pepper.☞TESTER TIP: If you don't have either of those pans available, a round 13-inch (32-cm) tarte Tatin dish or any similarly sized vessel will work.
• Pat the chicken dry. Prick the lemon all over with a fork and stuff it in the cavity along with half the rosemary. Place the chicken on the potatoes.
• Drizzle the remaining 3 tablespoons oil over the chicken and then rub it all over the skin and add a very generous sprinkle of salt. Lightly crush the garlic cloves and toss them on the potatoes along with what's left of the rosemary.☞TESTER TIP: You can happily prepare this a few hours before you're ready to roast the chicken, cover and store in the fridge. Just don't slice the potatoes more than 4 hours or so ahead, as they may brown.
• Slide the pan in the oven and roast until the skin is crisp and the juices run clear when you stick a knife into the thickest part of the bird (between the leg and the body) and the internal temperature reads 165°F (74°C), 70 to 90 minutes, depending on the size of your bird.☞TESTER TIP: If the chicken meat is cooked through but the skin still looks a little pale, simply slide it beneath the broiler for a few minutes until brown and crisp.
• Let the chicken rest for 10 minutes before carving. Serve it straight from the roasting pan.

ROSEMARY-PAPRIKA CHICKEN AND FRIES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 425 degrees, and place a sheet pan on the oven's lowest rack to heat. In a liquid measuring cup or small bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, lemon zest and garlic. Season with salt and pepper.
• Transfer half of the mayonnaise mixture (about ¼ cup) to a medium bowl. Stir in the smoked paprika, rosemary, red-pepper flakes and ½ teaspoon black pepper. Season the chicken all over with 1½ teaspoons salt. Add the chicken to the bowl of paprika-mayonnaise, and rub it all over the chicken. Set aside.
• Halve the potato crosswise (no need to peel), then cut it into ¼-inch-thick fries. Right on the cutting board, drizzle with the olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
• Place the chicken breasts skin side down on the heated sheet pan, then scatter the potatoes around the chicken in a single layer. Roast on the bottom rack for 15 minutes, then flip the chicken so the skin side is up. (No need to turn the potatoes.) Roast for another 10 to 15 minutes, until the fries are browned underneath and the chicken registers 155 degrees when an instant-read thermometer is inserted in the thickest part. (The temperature will rise as the meat rests.) Let the chicken rest for at least 5 minutes, then cut the chicken meat from the bones and slice. Stir the lemon juice into the remaining mayonnaise mixture. Eat the chicken with the fries and a puddle of the lemon-garlic mayo for dipping.
