• If you're in the mood for something different, replace the chicken in this recipe with cooked, chopped sausage, leftover roast beef or shrimp. Add a hit of bright flavor by adding in 1 teaspoon of finely grated lemon zest along with the rice. If you have fresh green beans on hand, use them instead of frozen ones. Simply add them to the skillet along with the mushrooms in Step 1.

SKILLET ROAST CHICKEN

Steps:

• Bring the chicken to room temperature, about 30 minutes. Pat the skin dry with paper towels. Preheat the oven to 425˚ F.
• Heat the butter in a large ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Stir in the rosemary, garlic, lemon zest and a pinch of salt and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Let cool slightly.
• Brush the herb butter all over the chicken; season generously with salt and pepper. Tuck the wing tips under the body and tie the drumsticks together using kitchen twine.
• Stir the onion and carrots into any remaining herb butter in the skillet; set the chicken on top, breast-side up. Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast until the skin is golden and a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh registers 165˚ F, 60 to 75 minutes. (Tent the chicken with foil if it is browning too quickly.)
• Transfer the chicken to a cutting board, pouring any juices from the cavity back into the skillet. Let rest 20 minutes, then carve. Serve the chicken with the vegetables and pan juices.

• Heat 3 tablespoons of oil in a large, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken to the skillet and cook, undisturbed, until deeply golden, about 3 minutes. Turn the chicken and cook, undisturbed, until the other side is deeply golden brown, about 3 minutes. Remove the chicken to a plate. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until they begin to brown and release their liquid, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until the garlic is fragrant, about 30 seconds.
• Add the cream cheese and stir until melted. Then pour in the half-and-half. Use a wooden spoon to scrape any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Season with salt and pepper. Add the chicken back to the skillet, cover and cook, turning about halfway through, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the chicken reaches 165 degrees F, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a serving platter filled with warm egg noodles. Add the spinach to the skillet, cover and cook until wilted, about 5 minutes. Stir to combine and season with salt and pepper.
