Roasted Chicken With Marsala And Anchovies Recipes

Steps:

• Prepare the marinade: Finely chop 2 shallots. In a large bowl, stir the chopped shallots with 3 tablespoons mustard, the honey, 2 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Whisk in the Marsala then 1/4 cup oil. Refrigerate 1/4 cup marinade to use for the vinaigrette.
• Place the chicken and oregano sprigs in a large zip-top bag and add the remaining marinade. Seal the bag and turn it over a few times before laying it flat in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours or, ideally, overnight, turning it once or twice while it marinates. (If you're in a rush, marinating it at room temperature for 30 minutes is a quick shortcut.)
• Heat the oven to 425 degrees. Peel the carrots, halve them lengthwise if thick, then chop them into 1 1/2-inch-long pieces. Clean the mushrooms and remove any tough stems. Quarter the whole shallots from root to stem and discard the skins. Place the prepped vegetables in a large bowl and toss with 3 tablespoons oil, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
• Remove the chicken from the marinade and place each piece skin side up on a large rimmed sheet pan. Scatter the vegetables around the chicken, arranging them in an even layer. Discard the marinade in the zip-top bag.
• Roast until the chicken is cooked through and its juices run clear, 35 to 40 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a serving platter to rest. Stir the remaining vegetables and return the pan to the oven to cook until the carrots are starting to brown and become tender, the mushrooms are golden and beginning to crisp, and the shallots have caramelized, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, prepare the vinaigrette: Whisk the refrigerated 1/4 cup marinade with the vinegar, then the remaining 3 tablespoons oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Adjust the flavor as desired, adding more olive oil for a less acidic vinaigrette or more Dijon for something a bit sharper and creamier.
• Transfer the vegetables to the serving platter, scattering them around the chicken, and pour any cooking juices left in the pan over the top. Garnish with the chopped oregano. Toss salad greens with just enough vinaigrette to coat. Season the salad to taste and serve with the chicken and vegetables.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Mix butter, garlic, thyme, rosemary, lemon zest, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper together in a bowl.
• Loosen skin on chicken breast; rub butter mixture between skin and breast meat. Press on the skin to distribute evenly. Rub oil, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper all over; place lemon halves inside cavity. Set in a baking pan.
• Roast in the preheated oven, basting after 30 minutes, until chicken is no longer pink, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Let rest before carving, about 15 minutes.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry chicken, removing giblets. Place fresh thyme sprigs inside cavity and place chicken, breast side up, in roasting pan with shallow sides.
• 2. Pour chicken broth and marsala over entire chicken. Place chicken on lower-middle rack. Baste ever 15 minutes.
• 3. In large bowl, mix vegetables, oil and marsala well. After second basting (30 minutes of cooking time), arrange vegetables around chicken.
• 4. Continue basting chicken and stirring vegetales every 15 minutes for 1 more hour. (total cooking time 1 1/2 hours). Remove to a serving platter and cover with foil.
• 5. NOTE: If using bone-in chicken thighs, preheat oven to 350 degrees, and bake as directed above for 1 1/2 hours.

Steps:

• Rub a mixture of anchovy paste, lemon zest, and parsley under the skin of a whole chicken; drizzle with olive oil. Roast at 450 degrees until a thermometer inserted into thickest part of a thigh reads 160 degrees, 40 to 45 minutes. Let the chicken rest for 15 minutes before carving and serving.

Steps:

• Season both sides of the breasts with salt and pepper. In heavy-bottomed skillet, heat 1 tbsp (15 mL) oil over medium-high heat; fry chicken, skin side down, until skin is browned, about 5 minutes.
• Turn chicken; transfer skillet to 450°F (230°C) convection oven or 475°F (240°C) conventional oven. Bake, basting chicken with pan juices after 10 minutes, until no longer pink in centre, 16 to 20 minutes. Remove from oven (wrap handle of skillet in oven mitt); transfer to serving platter and keep warm.
• Pour off all but 1 tbsp (15 mL) fat from pan; fry shallots over medium-high heat, scraping up any brown bits, until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add sage; fry until shallots are lightly browned, about 1 minute. Stir in stock and wine; boil until reduced by two-thirds. Remove from heat. Cut 2 tbsp (30 mL) butter (if using) into pieces; stir into sauce. Stir in lemon juice; spoon over chicken.

Steps:

• 1 Place a rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 450°F. Oil a roasting pan just large enough to hold the chicken. 2 Rinse the chicken and pat dry. Tuck the wing tips behind the back. Sprinkle inside and out with salt and pepper. Place the lemon half, butter, anchovies, and nutmeg inside the cavity. Place the chicken in the pan breast-side down. 3 Roast the chicken 20 minutes. Carefully turn the chicken breast-side up and roast 20 minutes more. Pour the Marsala over the chicken. Roast 20 to 30 minutes more, basting 2 or 3 times with the pan juices. The chicken is done when the juices run clear when the thigh is pierced and the temperature in the thickest part of the thigh is 170°F on an instant-read thermometer. 4 Transfer the chicken to a platter. Cover loosely with foil and keep warm for 10 minutes before carving. Serve hot. From "1,000 Italian Recipes." Copyright 2004 by Michele Scicolone.
