Herb Roasted Chicken With Melted Tomatoes Food

CHICKEN WITH HERB-ROASTED TOMATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F.
• In a large bowl toss the tomatoes, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, herbes de Provence, and salt and pepper to taste. Place tomatoes in a rimmed baking dish and roast in oven for about 15 minutes, or until tomatoes burst and give up some of their juices. Remove from oven and drizzle with Worcestershire sauce.
• Meanwhile, season chicken all over with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil a large ovensafe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken on both sides until golden brown, about 6 to 8 minutes total. Transfer pan to the oven and roast until chicken registers 165°F with an instant-read thermometer, about 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer chicken to a cutting board and allow to rest for at least 5 minutes.
• Add remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the pan and heat over medium heat, being careful not to place hands on handle as the pan will still be extremely hot. Add shallot to pan and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Deglaze the pan with the vinegar, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Add the tomatoes and their juices and simmer until a sauce begins to form, about 1 minute.
• Slice chicken and divide among plates. Spoon tomatoes and sauce over and garnish with parsley.

HERB ROASTED TOMATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to broil.
• In a large bowl, mix together the herbs, garlic, pepper, salt and olive oil. Add halved tomatoes and toss well. Arrange the seasoned tomatoes, flesh side up, on a half sheet tray lined with parchment. Sprinkle liberally with the Parmesan. Put under the broiler until the cheese is browned and melted, and the tomatoes have caramelized, about 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Place chicken, skin-side down, in large baking pan sprayed with no stick cooking spray. Pour 3/4 cup of the marinade over chicken.

HERB ROASTED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees and place a heavy roasting pan to preheat in the oven. Season the inside of the chicken cavity with salt and pepper. Put the crushed garlic, chopped onion and dry herbs inside the cavity of the chicken. Using the twine, tie the legs closed. Use the olive oil to rub the entire outside of the chicken with an even coat of oil. Pick the herb from the stem and coarsely chop them before sprinkling the herb liberally and evenly on the chicken. Place the chicken into the preheated roasting pan and roast at 425 degrees for the first 45 minutes of roasting. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees and continue to roast for an additional 1 hour. Remove from the oven and pierce the thigh: if the juices run clear when pierced allow to rest on a platter for 15 to 20 minutes before carving. If the juices are still pink return to the oven for more roasting time.
• While the chicken is resting, place the roasting pan on top of the stove, remove any chicken fat with a spoon, and, over medium heat, deglaze the pan drippings with the chicken broth. Use a spoon to scrape up all the crusty bits (that's where the most concentrated flavor is) and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and strain the liquid into a gravy boat to pass at the table.

HERB-ROASTED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Pat the chicken dry; generously season the skin and inside the cavity with salt and pepper. Refrigerate, uncovered, at least 4 hours or overnight to dry out the skin. Let stand at room temperature 30 minutes before roasting.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Mash the butter with the chopped thyme and chopped rosemary in a small bowl. Gently slide your fingers under the chicken skin on the breasts and legs to loosen it. Scoop some of the herbed butter with a spoon; slide the spoon under the skin and hold the skin in place while you remove the spoon. Smooth the skin to distribute the butter. Repeat with the remaining butter.
• Squeeze a lemon half into the cavity of each chicken, then stuff the lemon half inside. Stuff 1/2 onion, 3 garlic cloves, 1 thyme sprig and 1/2 rosemary sprig into each chicken cavity. Tie the legs together with twine. Set a rack in a large roasting pan; put the chicken on the rack and roast 25 minutes. Toss the scallions, tomatoes, olive oil and a large pinch of salt in a bowl, then add to the roasting pan. Remove the twine from the chicken and continue roasting until the skin is golden brown and a thermometer inserted into the thigh registers 170 degrees F, about 50 more minutes.
• Transfer the chicken and vegetables to platters and let rest about 10 minutes before carving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Season chicken inside and out with salt and pepper and place in a roasting pan. Stuff thyme and parsley in cavity. In a large bowl, toss leeks, carrots, and potatoes with oil; season with salt and pepper. Scatter vegetables around chicken, arranging potatoes at edges of pan; pour wine into pan. Roast until chicken is golden brown and juices run clear when pierced between breast and leg (an instant-read thermometer inserted in thickest part of a thigh, avoiding bone, should read 165 degrees), about 1 hour.
