Sultana Chicken Stuffing

Sun, 18 Nov 2007 03:58:21 -0500

A slightly sweet, slightly savory chicken stuffing I made up to use some stuff I had around. I didn't have any eggs that I'd normally used to bind but suspected by the time it had cooked and some of the liquid and disappeared it wouldn't make much difference, and it turned out great. This is enough to do a small chicken (say 1.5Kg or less), double the quantity for a large chicken. -- posted by Peter J

Drunken French Country Chicken Au Gratin

Mon, 21 Jul 2008 17:41:49 -0400

An easy and delicious chicken dish with a few elegant touches here and there! The chicken is jointed (cut into pieces), sauteed and then grilled like a potato gratin in a sauce of cognac, wine, mustard and cheese. Serve this with a crisp fresh salad and pasta, or with seasonal steamed vegetables and rice. You can omit the cognac and wine and use apple juice if you wish - the taste will not be as sophisticated, deep or intense, but the chicken could be served to children this way! An ideal dinner party recipe or Valentine's day meal for two - just reduce the ingredients, or make the full amount and freeze the remaining portions. Recommended wine: Saumur Champigny. -- posted by French Tart

Please read the entire recipe before attempting to make this dish. You will need the Olive and Pepper Mix that I am unable to list in the ingredients, but is listed in the instructions.

I jotted down all the info from the TV program. I have compiled techniques and recipes from authentic sources and this is what I have come up with. The prep time does not include the 24 hour chicken marination time. NOTES: Ingredients list includes links to Adobo Seasoning, Adobo Marinade, Sofrito and Olive and Pepper Mix.

Topsy Turvy Crispy Roast Chicken With Salt Crust Seasoning

Wed, 19 Nov 2008 16:50:12 -0500

A great method for cooking a perfect whole roast chicken - no dried out breast meat and no half raw leg and thigh meat, just moist chicken with crispy, seasoned skin. I like to use corn-fed chickens for a truly lovely texture, flavour and colour. The salt crust and seasoning mix that I suggest, really gives a great flavour and crispy finish; however, if you have your own favourite seasoning mix, please use that instead. Salting chicken before cooking draws out excess moisture, making the flesh firmer and the skin crispy. Serve this roast chicken with traditional accompaniments such as roast potatoes, stuffing, fresh seasonal vegetables and gravy. (It is nice to buy and cook organic or humanely produced chickens; I realise that they cost a little bit more, but the taste is superior and you will not be supporting a cruel and unnecessary way of animal husbandry - you taste what you pay for!) -- posted by French Tart

There is plenty of extra sauce, which I serve over rice. -- posted by Munchkin Mama

Tuscan Lemon Chicken (Skillet or Grill)

Mon, 29 Dec 2008 22:25:46 -0500

This easy dinner recipe is adapted from "Barefoot Contessa: Back to Basics", by Ina Garten. The chicken gets so tender, it just falls off the bone. Chicken needs to marinate for at least 4 hours, so you can prepare it in the morning (or the evening before) and then just cook before dinner. {The original recipe calls for grilling the chicken. If you want to grill the chicken: Spread 1/4 of the coals across the other side of the grill, place the chicken on the cooler side, skin side up, and weight it down with a heavy dish. Cook for 12-15 minutes, until the underside is golden brown, turn over and weight it again. Cook for another 12-15 minutes. Place the lemon halves on the cool side of the grill in the last 10 minutes of cooking. Remove chicken to a plate and tent with tin foil. Allow to rest for 5 minutes. Cut into quarters, sprinkle with salt and serve with grilled lemon halves.} THE CALORIE COUNT FOR THIS RECIPE IS INCORRECT: I used the USDA website to calculate it and it is actually 357 calories per serving. -- posted by blucoat

French Chicken in a Pot (America's Test Kitchen)

Wed, 14 Jan 2009 23:16:12 -0500

Roasting a whole chicken in a covered pot is a classic French technique where the meat turns out juicy, intensely flavourful, and especially tender and also creates a rich jus top serve with the chicken. This recipe is from America's Test Kitchen and was published in "Cook's Illustrated Magazine" (Jan. 2008). The cooking times in the recipe are for a 4 1/2- to 5-pound bird. A 3 1/2- to 4 1/2-pound chicken will take about an hour to cook, and a 5- to 6-pound bird will take close to 2 hours. If you choose not to serve the skin with the chicken, simply remove it before carving. The amount of jus will vary depending on the size of the chicken; season it with about 1/4 teaspoon lemon juice for every 1/4 cup. -- posted by blucoat

Pot Roast Chicken With Mushrooms and Marsala

Sun, 25 Jan 2009 23:41:48 -0500

This is an incredibly simple, practical, yet very stylish way to cook a whole chicken. The finished dish is juicy and tender and the sweet mushroom juices make a wonderful gravy. Marsala is an Italian fortified sweet wine, if you prefer you can use sweet sherry instead. Serve with buttery mashed potatoes and steamed seasonal veggies. Any leftovers will make delicious and freezable pot pies. Shred the meat from the bones and stir back into the mushroom and Marsala gravy. Spoon into small pie dishes or large ramekins and top with a puff pasty lid (use sheet of ready rolled) bake at 375F until puffed, golden and piping hot. Always take meat out of the fridge at least 1 hour before roasting so it will cook evenly and not spend the first 20 minutes in the oven coming to room temperature. -- posted by English_Rose

Roast Chicken With Cumin, Honey & Orange (Mark Bittman)

Sat, 14 Mar 2009 13:00:16 -0400

This recipe from Mark Bittman was recently printed in the New York Times as well as a few of his cookbooks. It is every bit as luscious as it sounds. "You need a certain boldness of spirit to roast a bird this way. After 20 minutes of cooking, you will be certain that the skin is going to burn in spots. But have faith. Rotate the chicken back to front in the oven and continue to baste. If it does begin to scorch, lower the heat a bit. I remove chicken from the oven when an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh reads 155 degrees; any traces of pinkness disappear during the few minutes I let it sit before carving." You can also make this on the grill. -- posted by blucoat

After seeing this on Food Network and trying it that very night, I'll never make a roasted chicken any other way. The vegetables alone are worth it, but the chicken is so unbelievably tender and juicy that you can't help but go back for seconds. I've made only very subtle changes to suit my taste, and I would recommend nearly doubling the veggies if feeding four grown people. Reheated leftovers are phenomenal (use medium power on microwave). -- posted by KissKiss

Apricot-Glazed Sweet & Sour Chicken With Sage

Tue, 28 Apr 2009 01:15:25 -0400

This is a quick and easy recipe with loads of flavour from Dave Lieberman's cookbook, "Young & Hungry". This is an elegant way to make a whole lot of chicken that tastes really good. It's kind of sweet and sour sweet from the apricot preserves and the plums, and sour from the bit of vinegar. But what makes this dish are the sage leaves. They give a distinctive taste and make it a beautiful, festive platter that you can really be proud of. If you want to prepare this in advance, do the first 2 steps, cover the pans, and put them in the fridge until you're ready to roast the chicken, but bring it back to room temperature before roasting. -- posted by blucoat

Whole Grilled Chicken With Lemon and Garlic

Wed, 20 May 2009 14:19:15 -0400

Absolutely divine. This recipe comes from Weber's Big Book of Grilling, which is our grill bible. Be sure when you truss the bird that you secure the cavity and the neck with a pin of some sort, otherwise the wine and lemon juice will just come right back out when you pour it in. Also, make sure your grill really is at a medium heat, otherwise the skin will char. The prep time listed here includes the time it takes to roast the garlic. -- posted by 2hot2handle

Bricked Rosemary Chicken With Lemon

Sat, 23 May 2009 17:42:29 -0400

"A Tuscan classic! The brick technique ensures a crisp exterior with a moist and juicy interior. The sprinkling of lemon zest and herbs keeps it tasting fresh. Butterflying the chicken is an easy procedure with the right knife or pair of kitchen shears (*see directions below), but you can always ask a butcher to do it for you.

Nif's Butterflied Grilled Whole Chicken

Wed, 22 Jul 2009 10:56:17 -0400

YUM, YUM, YUM! And easy too :). The instructions are easier than they look - I was just being specific. This chicken cooks much quicker than a regular whole chicken because of the method that I use. Only 2 ingredients makes this a quick last minute delicious dish. Adjust the amount of rub used according to your own taste; I use 2 tablespoons total. If you don't have rub, you can just use some salt and pepper. The cooking time may vary slightly as not all barbeques cook at the same temperature. Enjoy! -- posted by Nif
