Steps:
- Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Have a shelf ready in the middle of the oven without any shelves above it.
- Scatter 1 roughly chopped onion and 2 roughly chopped carrots over the base of a roasting tin that fits the whole 1 ½ kg chicken, but doesn't swamp it.
- Season the cavity of the chicken liberally with salt and pepper, then stuff with 2 lemon halves and a small bunch of thyme, if using.
- Sit the chicken on the vegetables, smother the breast and legs all over with 25g softened butter, then season the outside with salt and pepper.
- Place in the oven and leave, undisturbed, for 1 hr 20 mins - this will give you a perfectly roasted chicken. To check, pierce the thigh with a skewer and the juices should run clear.
- Carefully remove the tin from the oven and, using a pair of tongs, lift the chicken to a dish or board to rest for 15-20 mins. As you lift the dish, let any juices from the chicken pour out of the cavity into the roasting tin.
- While the chicken is resting, make the gravy. Place the roasting tin over a low flame, then stir in 1 tbsp flour and sizzle until you have a light brown, sandy paste.
- Gradually pour in 250ml chicken stock, stirring all the time, until you have a thickened sauce.
- Simmer for 2 mins, using a wooden spoon to stir, scraping any sticky bits from the tin.
- Strain the gravy into a small saucepan, then simmer and season to taste. When you carve the bird, add any extra juices to the gravy.

ROAST CHICKEN PAN GRAVY
This is your basic pan gravy technique, and it doesn't matter what the meat is. You can do this for a leg of lamb, a roast beef, a roast pork loin, or a pan-roasted chicken.

Steps:
- Pour fat from drippings into a bowl and reserve. Whisk flour into remaining drippings left in pan; mixture will seem dry. Add 2 tablespoons reserved fat, or as needed, to the drippings mixture to combine with flour.
- Place pan of drippings mixture over low heat and toast flour until light brown and mixture gives off a nutty fragrance, about 5 minutes.
- Drizzle about 1/3 cup cold chicken stock at a time into pan drippings, whisking each addition of stock into mixture until thoroughly combined. Continue whisking, scraping any browned pan drippings from the bottom of the pan into gravy; bring to a simmer. Continue to cook, whisking constantly, until gravy is thick and flour has combined with the liquid, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Adjust thickness of gravy; if too thick, whisk in a little more stock. If gravy is too thin, continue to simmer, whisking constantly, until reduced and thickened, about 10 more minutes. For the smoothest texture, strain gravy before serving.

Steps:
- Arrange a rack in lower third of oven with no racks above it; preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Place potatoes, carrots, thyme and rosemary in a 12-inch cast iron or other oven-safe deep skillet. Season with salt and pepper and pour in 1 cup of stock. Rub skin of chicken with olive oil, then season with salt and pepper. Place chicken breast-side-up on top of vegetables.
- Roast chicken, basting with the pan juices every 20 minutes, about 60 to 75 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F. Transfer chicken to a platter, draining juices from the cavity of the chicken into the pan. Using a slotted spoon, remove vegetables and arrange around chicken on the serving platter.
- Bring pan drippings to a simmer over medium heat. Add flour and whisk constantly for 1 minute. Add 1 cup of stock and whisk until smooth. Simmer until thickened, about 2 minutes. If too thick, whisk in additional stock 2 Tbsp. at a time until desired consistency is reached. Add cream, if desired, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Carve the chicken and serve with the vegetables and gravy.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Season the cavity of the chicken with salt and pepper. Stuff the cavity with the lemon, herbs, and half of the carrots, onions, and celery. Tie the legs together with kitchen twine and fold the wing tips under the back. Place the remaining carrots, onion, and celery in the center of a roasting pan just large enough to accommodate the chicken. Brush the entire chicken with the butter; season with salt and pepper. Set the bird breast-side up on top of the vegetables.
- Roast the chicken for 45 minutes. Then increase oven temperature to 425 degrees F., cooking until an instant-read thermometer stuck into the chicken thigh registers 160 degrees F., about 15 minutes more. Tip the chicken so the juices run into the pan. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and loosely tent with foil while making the gravy.
- Discard the vegetables and pour the fat and juices in the pan into a small bowl. Transfer about 2 tablespoons of the fat back into the pan, skim and discard the rest. Add the roasting juices to the broth. Place the pan directly on the burner over medium-high heat. Scrape up any browned bits on the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Stir in the flour and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Whisk in the broth and continue to stir. Bring to a boil and cook until thickened, about 3 minutes. Pour the sauce into a gravy boat and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Carve the chicken and serve with gravy.
ROASTED SPATCHCOCK CHICKEN AND GIBLET GRAVY RECIPE BY TASTY
Meiko Temple shows us how to make the perfect roasted chicken. She starts by spatchcocking the bird so it cooks more evenly and gets browned all over. Then she rubs a homemade adobo seasoning all over to tenderize the meat and add tons of flavor. She pairs her roasted chicken with savory giblet gravy so nothing goes to waste. Bonus tip: Save any bones to turn into chicken stock the following day!

Steps:
- Set a wire rack over a rimmed baking sheet and grease with nonstick spray.
- Remove the giblet bag from inside the chicken and set aside. Place the chicken on a cutting board, breast-side down. Use kitchen shears or a sharp knife to cut along each side of the backbone to remove (set aside to make stock, if desired). Flip the chicken over and splay the thighs. Stack your hands between the breasts and press down firmly to flatten until you hear the breastbone crack.
- Make the adobo seasoning: In a small bowl, mix together the turmeric, oregano, onion powder, garlic powder, pepper, and salt.
- Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Turn the chicken breast-side down and liberally season the back cavity with half of the adobo seasoning, rubbing into the crevices.
- Flip the bird over. Use a metal skewer to poke the chicken skin all over. Carefully use your fingers to separate the skin from the meat over the breasts and thighs. Rub the clarified butter under the chicken skin, using your fingertips over the skin to spread the butter evenly. Sprinkle the remaining adobo seasoning over the chicken skin.
- Set the chicken on the wire rack. Chill in the refrigerator, uncovered, for 1-24 hours.
- Before roasting, remove the chicken from the refrigerator and let come to room temperature for 45 minutes.
- Preheat the oven 475°F (245°C).
- Transfer the chicken to the oven and roast for about 50 minutes, or until an instant-read thermometer registers 165°F (75°C) when inserted into the thickest part of the thigh and the skin is golden brown. Remove the chicken from the oven and let rest for about 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make the giblet gravy: Remove the giblets from the bag and separate the meat from any skin, fat, or bones. Add the giblets to a medium saucepan with enough water to cover by 1 inch. Cook over medium heat until the giblets are tender, about 20 minutes. Remove from the pan, draining any excess water, and finely chop the meat. Clean the pan.
- Melt the butter in the same saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until softened, about 1 minute. Sprinkle in the flour and cook, stirring continuously, for 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Stir in the chopped giblets. Slowly pour in the chicken stock, whisking constantly, until the flour is dissolved, then whisk in the Worcestershire sauce, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
- Bring the gravy to a boil and add the bay leaves, then reduce the heat to low and cook until the gravy is thickened, 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- To carve the chicken, pull the legs away from the body then cut through the joint to release. Cut along the breast bone to remove the breasts on either side. Cut off the wings. Reserve the carcass along with the backbone for making chicken stock, if desired.
- Pour the gravy over the chicken and serve warm.
- Enjoy!
PERFECT ROASTED CHICKEN AND GRAVY

Steps:
- For the Chicken---.
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Mix the spices in a small bowl.
- In a separate bowl, melt butter and blend with the olive oil.
- Clean out the chicken and rinse completely. Put the wings up and back so that the tips of the wings are behind the neck cavity, as if the chicken is scratching it's back. Pat the chicken dry and place on a roasting pan, elevated on a roasting rack in the pan.
- Cut the top off the head of garlic and remove the excess skin. Place inside the chicken.
- Pour the oil and butter mixture over the chicken, coating well. Pour the rest in the roasting pan under the chicken on the rack.
- Rub the Spice mixture all over the chicken, inside and out. It's okay if there is a little spice left over, you don't have to over do it. These spices will blend with the drippings and flavor your gravy too!
- Place in oven.
- Baste the chicken completely every 25 minutes until chicken is done. I like to use the pop up timers but if you prefer, the internal temperature should reach 170°F at the thickest point in the thigh, not touching the bone.
- After the chicken is done, drain it out into the pan, let as much of the juices flow out as possible.
- Place the roasting pan on a burner on your stovetop and bring the juice to a simmer, scraping all the little brown bits off the bottom with a spatula.
- Pour in the 3/4 cup of water and bring back to a simmer, continue to stir and scrape the bits up.
- Meanwhile, blend your cornstarch, lemon juice and broth, making sure there aren't any lumps.
- Whisk the Cornstarch mixture into the drippings and water, continuing to simmer. Gravy will start to thicken if kept over medium to low heat, be sure you whisk constantly to prevent clumps and to keep the gravy blended. Feel free to add more or less cornstarch until the desired consistency is reached.
- When the thickness of the gravy meets your satisfaction, pour it into a bowl and season with salt and pepper to taste. You can strain the gravy if you'd like, but I prefer it with the little pieces of chicken.
PERFECT ROAST CHICKEN
The almost universal appeal of roasted chicken stems from its power to comfort. The ideal roasted chicken recipe will leave your chicken golden brown and gleaming, tender, and juicy. The crackle of chicken as it roasts and the wondrous aroma that perfumes the kitchen provoke a feeling of satisfaction and fulfillment.

Steps:
- Let chicken and 1 tablespoon butter stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Remove and discard the plastic pop-up timer from chicken if there is one. Remove the giblets and excess fat from the chicken cavity. Rinse chicken inside and out under cold running water. Dry chicken thoroughly with paper towels. Tuck the wing tips under the body. Sprinkle the cavity of the chicken liberally with salt and pepper, and set aside.
- In the center of a heavy-duty roasting pan, place onion slices in two rows, touching. Place the palm of your hand on top of lemon and, pressing down, roll lemon back and forth several times. This softens the lemon and allows the juice to flow more freely. Pierce entire surface of lemon with a fork. Using the side of a large knife, gently press on garlic cloves to open slightly. Insert garlic cloves, thyme sprigs, and lemon into cavity. Place chicken in pan, on onion slices. Cut about 18 inches of kitchen twine, bring chicken legs forward, cross them, and tie together.
- Spread the softened butter over entire surface of chicken, and sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Place in the oven, and roast until skin is deep golden brown and crisp and the juices run clear when pierced, about 1 1/2 hours. When chicken seems done, insert an instant-read thermometer into the breast, then the thigh. The breast temperature should read 180 degrees and the thigh 190 degrees.
- Remove chicken from oven, and transfer to a cutting board with a well. Let chicken stand 10 to 15 minutes so the juices settle. Meanwhile, pour the pan drippings into a shallow bowl or fat separator, and leave onions in the pan. Leave any brown baked-on bits in the bottom of the roasting pan, and remove and discard any blackened bits. Using a large spoon or fat separator, skim off and discard as much fat as possible. Pour the remaining drippings and the juices that have collected under the resting chicken back into the roasting pan. Place on the stove over medium-high heat to cook, about 1 minute. Add chicken stock, raise heat to high, and, using a wooden spoon, stir up and combine the brown bits with the stock until the liquid is reduced by half, about 4 minutes. Strain the gravy into a small bowl, pressing on onions to extract any liquid. Discard onions, and stir in the remaining tablespoon of cold butter until melted and incorporated. Untie the legs, and remove and discard garlic, thyme, and lemon. Carve, and serve gravy on the side.

Boil for a few minutes to cook the flour. Strain the gravy into a small saucepan and season it to taste. Keep it warm over a very low flame while you carve the chicken.
