Lemon Rosemary Roast Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Combine chicken, onion, lemon slices, garlic, and rosemary together in a large bowl. Drizzle olive oil and sprinkle salt and black pepper over the chicken mixture; toss to coat. Spread chicken mixture out in the bottom of a baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 45 to 50 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a thigh, near the bone, should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Steps:

• Thinly slice 1 onion. Strip the needles from the rosemary, and finely chop them; reserve the sprigs. Grate the zest from 1 lemon.
• In a small glass or ceramic bowl, combine sliced onion, chopped rosemary, lemon zest, vinegar, mustard, juice from zested lemon, salt, and pepper. Mix well, and set mixture aside.
• Cut the remaining onion and lemon in half crosswise. Pierce each end with a small, sharp knife. Insert the reserved rosemary sprigs, like skewers, through the holes in the onion and lemon halves.
• Rub the mustard mixture over the outside of the chicken and inside the cavities. Insert a rosemary "skewer"; in the cavity. Put the chicken in a shallow pan, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
• Prepare a charcoal or gas grill, arranging the coals for indirect cooking. Lightly coat the grilling rack with cooking spray. The coals should be moderately hot.
• Remove the chicken from the shallow pan, and place over the cooler part of the grill. Cover with aluminum foil, and roast until the juices run clear when the thigh is pierced with a fork and an instant-read thermometer registers 180 degrees when inserted into thickest part of thigh (1 hour and 30 minutes to 1 hour and 45 minutes); turn 3 or 4 times during grilling. Add fresh coals to the fire as necessary to maintain a moderate heat. If using a gas grill, adjust the far burner to medium.
• Let the chicken sit 10 minutes. Remove onion and lemon from cavity. Carve, and serve.

Steps:

• Emeril's directions were preheat oven to 500 degrees F and cook for 40-50 minutes, but I preheated the oven to 350 and cooked for approx 2 1/2 hours.
• So, here's the directions.
• Season the chicken inside and out with salt and pepper. Squeeze the lemon halves over the chicken and place the rinds inside the chicken. Place the bay leaves inside the chicken as well.
• In a small bowl combine the garlic, rosemary, olive oil and butter. Rub the chicken with the blend and place in a roasting pan.
• Roast until the chicken breast registers around 180-185 degree. Remove chicken saving juices (not fat).
• Place roast pan over high heat adding stock, roasted garlic, wine and rosemary to the juices. Bring to a boil and reduce gravy by half, until somewhat thick. Serve with chicken and enjoy.

Steps:

• Season the cavity of the chicken with salt and pepper. Prick 1 lemon 3 times with a knife and slice the second lemon into thin slices.
• Stuff chicken with 4 rosemary sprigs, whole lemon, and onion. Loosen the skin from the body of the chicken, making sure not to tear. Stuff lemon slices and softer rosemary sprigs under the skin, making sure to get the legs as well.
• Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with the remaining rosemary sprigs to make a rack for the chicken. Place stuffed chicken on top, sprinkle generously with salt and pepper, and drizzle with olive oil.
• Roast in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Continue to roast, basting every 15 minutes, until no longer pink in the center and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, reaches 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 1 hour more. Cover with foil and let rest for 15 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler.
• Cut a small slice off both ends of each lemon, and then cut in half crosswise. Arrange the lemons, flesh side up, in a flameproof nonreactive baking dish, and season with salt. Broil 6 inches or more from the heat until browned and soft, about 10 minutes. Cool slightly. Squeeze the lemon halves over a sieve suspended over a bowl. Push and stir the pulp through the sieve with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon to get as much juice out as possible. Discard the lemon peels.
• Reduce oven temperature to 425 degrees F.
• Season chicken with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add the chicken, lower the heat to medium, and cook, turning once, until brown on both sides, about 5 minutes. Remove chicken to a plate or baking sheet.
• Return the pan to medium-high heat, add the potatoes, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring and tossing, until brown all over, about 10 minutes. Drain off the excess oil. Arrange the chicken breasts on top of the potatoes and place in the oven until potatoes and chicken are cooked through, about 10 to 15 minutes. Remove the chicken to a platter and put the pan with the potatoes over medium-high heat. Toss well so the pan juices are absorbed into the potatoes. Scrape the potatoes out of the pan onto the platter around the chicken.
• Return the pan to medium-high heat, add the garlic and rosemary, and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add 1 cup of chicken broth and reserved lemon juice. Stir and scrape up all the browned bits that cling to the bottom and sides of the pan, and then add the remaining 1 cup broth. Bring to a simmer stir in parsley and season to taste with salt and pepper. If the sauce tastes too lemony, stir in the optional butter. Pour the sauce over the chicken and potatoes and serve immediately, garnished with rosemary sprigs

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• Arrange chicken in a baking dish, 9 by 13-inch. Add garlic, rosemary, extra-virgin olive oil, lemon zest and grill seasoning or salt and pepper to the dish. Toss and coat the chicken with all ingredients, then place in oven. Roast 20 minutes. Add wine and lemon juice to the dish and combine with pan juices. Return to oven and turn oven off. Let stand 5 minutes longer then remove chicken from the oven. Place baking dish on trivet and serve, spooning pan juices over the chicken pieces.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. In a large cast-iron or other heavy skillet, heat oil over medium heat; brown chicken on both sides. Transfer to a 15x10x1-in. baking pan; reserve drippings. Bake chicken, uncovered, until a thermometer reads 165°, 8-10 minutes., Meanwhile, in same skillet, cook and stir shallot and rosemary in drippings until tender. Stir in broth. Bring to a boil; cook until liquid is reduced by half. Reduce heat to low; stir in lemon zest and juice. Whisk in butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, until creamy. Serve with chicken.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Tip the carrots, celeriac, swede, onions and garlic into a large roasting tin with the oil, rosemary leaves and a grinding of black pepper. Toss well and roast for 5-10 mins while you get the chicken ready.
• Grate the zest and squeeze the juice from the lemon, set aside and put the lemon shells and the woody stalks from the rosemary inside the chicken. Stir the veg, scatter over the lemon zest and drizzle over the juice, then sit the chicken on top of the veg and roast for 1-1 1/4 hrs until the chicken is tender but still moist. Take the chicken from the oven and leave to rest for 10 mins. Keep the veg in the oven and steam one of the bags of kale (if you're eating this over two days for the Healthy Diet Plan, otherwise steam both).
• Squeeze the garlic from the skins, carve the chicken and serve with the vegetables.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Very finely chop 2 sprigs of the rosemary and mix with 2 tbsp of the butter and the garlic, lemon zest and chilli. Gently lift the skin away from the breast of the chicken and press the butter underneath on both sides. Rub the remaining butter on the outside of the chicken. Stuff the lemon inside the cavity.
• Place the chicken on a wire rack along with the carrots in a medium roasting tin. Season, then scatter with the remaining rosemary leaves. Roast the chicken for 1 hr 10 mins or until the juices run clear, then remove from the oven and let it rest for 10 mins before carving. Serve it on a board with the carrots and a bowl of the roasting juices.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F
• Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat.
• Add the onions, carrots, celery, garlic cloves, ¾ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes.
• When the vegetables are caramelized, spoon them along the sides of a large roasting pan and set it aside.
• Reduce the burner heat slightly and allow the pan to cool a bit.
• Add 2 tablespoons oil to pan and return the pan to medium-high heat.
• Season the prepared chicken with the remaining salt and pepper, and brown it in the hot oil.
• Transfer the chicken to the center of the roasting pan, carefully cut 1-inch slits into the skin, and pour the pan juices on top of the chicken.
• Very carefully pull open the slits in the skin and rub the lemon zest, parsley, rosemary, and thyme under the skin.
• Add the wine to the skillet and deglaze, scraping up any browned bits from the pan.
• After the wine has simmered for 30 seconds, add the chicken stock and heat through.
• Pour the wine sauce over the chicken. Cover the roasting pan with a lid or tightly sealed foil and roast in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes, until the chicken tests 170 when a thermometer is inserted in the thigh.
• Allow the chicken to stand at room temperature in the pan for 10 minutes before carving.
