Chicken Bake With Garlic Croutons Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Take the giblets out of the chicken and wash it inside and out. Remove any excess fat and leftover pinfeathers. Toss the onion with a little olive oil in a small roasting pan. Place the chicken on top and sprinkle the inside of the cavity with salt and pepper. Place the lemons inside the chicken. Pat the outside of the chicken dry with paper towels, brush it with the melted butter, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Tie the legs together with kitchen string and tuck the wing tips under the body of the chicken.
• Roast for 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours, or until the juices run clear when you cut between the leg and the thigh. Cover with foil and allow to sit at room temperature for 15 minutes. (The onions may burn, but the flavor is good.)
• Meanwhile, heat a large saute pan with 2 tablespoons of olive oil until very hot. Lower the heat to medium-low and saute the bread cubes, tossing frequently, until nicely browned, 8 to
• 10 minutes. Add more olive oil, as needed, and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Place the croutons on a serving platter. Slice the chicken and place it, plus all the pan juices, over the croutons. Sprinkle with salt and serve warm.

Steps:

• For the chicken: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. When hot, put a cast-iron skillet in the oven to preheat, about 5 minutes.
• Dry the chicken with paper towels. In a small bowl, mix together the salt, pepper and garlic powder. Generously season the chicken inside and out with the salt mixture. Stuff the chicken cavity with the thyme, rosemary, garlic and onion.
• Slice the baguette on the bias into five 2-inch-thick slices. Spread some butter on one side of each slice. Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven and arrange the baguette slices buttered-side down in the center of the skillet. Place the chicken on the baguette slices, making sure all of the bread is covered by the chicken. Roast until the chicken is golden brown, an instant-read thermometer reads 165 degrees F and the juices run clear, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and tent with foil. Let rest for 10 minutes before carving. Remove the baguette slices from the skillet and reserve.
• For the pan sauce: While the chicken is resting, put the skillet over medium-high heat. Pour in the wine and scrape with a wooden spoon to remove all the brown bits. Add the chicken stock and cook until the liquid is slightly reduced, about 2 minutes. If any juices from the chicken have collected on the cutting board, pour them into the skillet now. Add in the butter piece by piece, waiting for each to melt before stirring in the next piece. Stir in the rosemary and thyme. Season with salt and pepper.
• For serving: Carve the chicken and serve with the baguette slices, pan sauce, Dijon mustard and Bistro Salad.
• Combine the lettuce and herbs in a medium bowl. In a glass jar or plastic container with a tight-fitting lid, combine the olive oil, vinegar, shallots, mustard, salt and pepper. Shake to combine. Pour over the salad and toss. Serve immediately.

• Combine butter and stuffing.
• Line 2 quart casserole dish with half of it.
• Sprinkle chicken over stuffing.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. Place chicken in a greased 13x9-in. baking dish. In a small bowl, combine soup and wine; pour over chicken. Top with cheese and sprinkle with croutons. , Bake, uncovered, until a thermometer inserted in chicken reads 165°, 35-40 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Cut the chicken breasts in half, not going all the way through, and open them out like a book. Season well. Heat half the oil in an ovenproof frying pan or shallow casserole (or a frying pan, then transfer to a roasting tin) and fry the chicken for 3 mins on each side until lightly golden.
• Spoon the passata over the chicken, then nestle the cherry tomatoes in and around the dish. Lay the mozzarella slices over the top. Tip the cubes of bread into a bowl and toss with the remaining oil, the garlic and oregano. Scatter over the chicken and tomatoes. Transfer to the oven and bake for 15 mins until the cheese has melted and the chicken is cooked through. Scatter over the basil and serve with a green salad.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• In a small saucepan melt butter/margarine with garlic. Dip chicken pieces in butter/garlic sauce, letting extra drip off, then coat completely with bread crumbs.
• Place coated chicken in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish. Combine any leftover butter/garlic sauce with bread crumbs and spoon mixture over chicken pieces. Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes to 1 hour.

Steps:

• Slice zucchini 1/4 inch thick. Blanch briefly in salted water until crisp/tender then drain.
• Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet and saute carrots and onions until tender, not brown.
• Fold in soup, sour cream and about 1/2 C of the chicken broth and about 2/3 of the croutons. Gently fold drained zucchini into mixture. If the mixture seems a little on the dry side then more of the chicken broth until you get the right consistency. The croutons will absorb some of the moisture as the dish cooks so you want the casserole to be nice and juicy before you put it in the oven.
• Place in greased casserole and put remaining croutons on top. Melt the remaining 2 T of butter and pour over the casserole. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-40 minutes.

Steps:

• Pour the olive oil in the bottom of a 9x13" baking pan and spread around so that it covers the entire surface. Add crushed garlic and red pepper flakes and spread it around so it is easily distributed.
• Place whole chicken breasts in the pan. Pour marinara sauce on top of the chicken. Sprinkle basil on top of sauce. Sprinkle half of the cheeses on top of the basil. Dump all the croutons on top of that. Finish it off with the other half of the cheese.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 40- 55 minutes (it depends on how large your chicken breasts are- mine cooked for about 50 minutes).
• Let stand for about 10 minutes after you pull it out of the oven and serve!

Steps:

• In a large shallow glass dish, combine the first seven ingredients. Add chicken; turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 3-4 hours. Place cracker crumbs in a shallow bowl; roll chicken in crumbs until coated. Transfer to a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Combine butter and oil; pour over the chicken. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 50-60 minutes or until chicken juices run clear.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Coat the bottom of a 9x13 inch casserole dish with olive oil, and sprinkle with garlic and hot red pepper flakes.
• Arrange the chicken breasts in bottom of the dish, and pour marinara sauce over chicken. Sprinkle basil over marinara sauce, and top with half the mozzarella cheese, followed by half the Parmesan cheese. Sprinkle on the croutons, then top with the remaining mozzarella cheese and remaining Parmesan cheese.
• Bake in preheated oven until cheese and croutons are golden brown and the chicken is no longer pink inside, about 35 minutes to an hour, depending on the shape and thickness of your chicken breasts. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a chicken breast should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
