Jalapeno Roasted Chicken With Baby Broccolini Food

BABY CHICKEN WITH RED WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees. Heat the olive oil in a large, deep skillet. Season the chicken with salt and pepper, and brown well on both sides before removing and placing in an ovenproof casserole. To the skillet in which you cooked the chicken, add the onions, carrots, turnips, thyme, and garlic, and saute until the vegetables begin to wilt.
• Add the red wine, plum tomatoes, and chicken stock to the vegetables, and cook for 10 minutes over medium heat. Pour the vegetable mixture over the chicken in the heatproof casserole and simmer, covered, for 45 minutes. When the chicken has finished cooking, add the cooked, crumbled bacon to the casserole, and serve.

ROASTED BROCCOLINI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Trim 2 inches off the ends of the broccolini stems and cut any thick stalks in half lengthwise. Place the broccolini in a single layer on two sheet pans. (If you put them on one sheet pan, the broccolini will steam rather than roast.) Drizzle each sheet pan with 2 tablespoons olive oil, sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and toss well. Roast for 15 minutes, until the broccolini is crisp-tender. Sprinkle lightly with salt and serve hot.

ROASTED BROCCOLINI WITH BREADCRUMBS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Put the broccolini in a resealable plastic bag and add the garlic, 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Seal the bag and massage the oil and garlic into the broccolini. Pour the broccolini and garlic into a medium baking dish.
• Pulse the bread in a food processor until finely chopped. Add the olives, red pepper flakes, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Pulse until the olives are finely chopped and the crumbs well-coated in oil.
• Pour the breadcrumb mixture over the broccolini and bake until the broccolini is crisp-tender and the breadcrumbs are golden brown, about 20 minutes.

JALAPENO ROAST CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400.
• Combine oregano, shallot, garlic, butter, olive oil, the jalapeno and pepper in a food processor and mix until until it's a paste.
• Pat the chicken dry and place breast-side up on a rack in a large roasting pan.
• Carefully loosen the skin from the chicken breast, legs and thighs without detaching it (I had to use a small knife at some points, but do so carefully so you don't accidentally pierce the skin.
• Spread about 1/2 of the jalapeno paste under the skin.
• Tie the legs together and spread the rest of the paste on the outside of the chicken.
• Pour the chicken broth and wine into the roasting pan.
• Roast the chicken for 1 hours 30 minutes (or until fully cooked), while basting with pan juices every 15-20 minutes. If the juices start to run out, add more chicken broth and wine to the pan.
• ***Optional*** After the chicken was finished, we poured a little of the juices from the pan on the chicken after it was cut and plated.

ROASTED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH JALAPENO AND TOMATOES
