Roast Chicken With Honey Lemon Glaze Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350ºF.
• Place chicken in 13x9-inch baking dish. Rub outside of chicken with cut side of garlic. Place garlic and tarragon in chicken cavity.
• Squeeze juice from lemon half into small bowl; place lemon half in chicken cavity. Add honey and dressing to juice in bowl; mix well.
• Bake chicken 1 hour 30 min. or until done (165ºF), brushing occasionally with the honey mixture for the last 20 min. Let stand 10 min. Discard garlic, lemon and tarragon before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and adjust the racks to the center of the oven. Fit a roasting pan with a V-rack.
• Mix together the honey, olive oil, cinnamon, smoked paprika and some salt and pepper in a small bowl.
• Sprinkle the cavity of the chicken with salt and pepper. Stuff the cavity with the rosemary sprigs and lemon slices. Place the chicken in the V-rack-fitted roasting pan. Sprinkle the outside of the chicken with salt and pepper. Tie the drumsticks together using butcher's twine. Brush the outside of the chicken with about half of the honey glaze.
• Transfer the chicken to the hot oven. Roast about 30 minutes, and then brush the glaze on the chicken once more. Continue to roast the chicken until the skin is golden brown and crisp , and an instant-read thermometer reaches 165 degrees when inserted in the thickest part of the thighs, about 45 minutes longer.

Steps:

• Season chicken all over with salt and pepper. In a large bowl, mix together garlic, honey, olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon red-pepper flakes. Add chicken and toss well with your hands, spreading the garlic paste all over the chicken pieces. (Don't worry if the honey is a little clumpy.) Add rosemary sprigs and lemon slices and toss to combine. Let marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes, or up to 8 hours in the refrigerator.
• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Line a sheet pan with a silicone liner or parchment paper.
• Spread chicken and lemons across a single layer in the lined pan, tucking in the rosemary sprigs. Drizzle oil generously over everything. Roast for 20 minutes.
• Using tongs, turn over the chicken pieces, and give the lemons a stir. Sprinkle feta on top. Continue to bake for 20 to 25 minutes longer, until the chicken is deeply bronzed and cooked through, and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh or drumstick registers 165 degrees. Serve garnished with chopped herbs and more red-pepper flakes, if you like.

Steps:

• Put 2 chicken breasts, skin side up in a small baking dish and season.
• Squeeze the lemon into a bowl and stir in the honey and soy sauce. Spoon the mixture over the chicken, then tuck the squeezed-out half of lemon between the pieces (this will moisten and add flavour to the chicken).
• Roast the chicken breasts in a baking dish, uncovered, for 30-35 minutes in a preheated oven (190C/gas 5/fan oven 170C). Cook until done and richly glazed, basting with the juices at least twice. To check if they are done, prod the chicken with your finger - if it's still a bit soft, give it a bit longer.
• Serve with salad and potatoes roasted with herbs and garlic.

Steps:

• In a blender, blend the chutney, soy sauce, honey, ginger, lemon zest, lemon juice and Tabasco until smooth.
• In a pan large enough to hold chicken pieces, pour marinade over chicken, cover and chill, for at least 6 hours or overnight.
• Arrange the chicken, skin side up, on a well-buttered rack over a roasting pan (or on bbq grill), reserving the marinade, and roast, in a preheated 400F (190C) oven, basting it 4 times with the reserved marinade, for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until cooked through.

Steps:

• Remove gilblets from chicken, if present. Place chicken in plastic bag set in shallow dish. slice 2 of the lemons; add to bag. Finely shred 2 teaspoons peel from remaining lemons; set aside. Squeeze lemons to yield 1/2 cup plus 2 Tbls. juice for glaze.
• For marinade, in bowl combine 1/2 cup lemon juice, olive oil, parsley, garlic, 1/2 tsp of the cayenne pepper and 1/2 teaspoons each salt and black pepper. Pour over chicken; turn to coat. Seal bag. Refrigerate 8 to 12 hours; turn occasionally.
• Preheat oven to 375°F Let chicken stand at room temp for 15 minutes. Drain chicken and set aside lemon slices; discard marinade. Pull neck skin back and fasten with a skewer. Tie drumsticks to tail. Twist wing tips under back.
• Place chicken, breast side up, on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Cover with lemon slices. Arrange lemon halves or quarters on rack around chicken. Roast on lowest rack, uncovered, for 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, in small saucepan combine honey, the shredded lemon peel, the 2 Tbls. lemon juice, and remaining 1/2 teaspoons cayenne pepper. Bring to boin over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat, set aside.
• Cut string between drumsticks and reposition any lemon slices that have slid off of chicken. Continue roasting 30-60 minutes more, or until drumsticks move easily in their sockets and chicken is no longer pink (180 F), occasionally brushing with some of the honey mixture during the last 20 minutes of roasting. If lemons begin to darken, tent loosely with foil. Remove chicken from oven. Let stand for 15 minutes before slicing. Serve with remaining honey glaze.

Steps:

• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat to 425°F.
• Finely grate enough zest from 1 lemon to measure 1 tablespoon, then squeeze enough juice from same lemon to measure 2 tablespoons.
• Stir together butter, tarragon, zest, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper.
• Put chicken, breast side up, in a small roasting pan. Starting from neck cavity, work your fingers gently between skin and flesh of breast to loosen skin all the way to thighs without tearing. Put one fourth of tarragon butter under skin of each breast, then rub skin from outside to spread evenly.
• Starting from large cavity, loosen skin on both sides of cavity with a paring knife (to provide access to thighs), then work your fingers gently between skin and flesh of thighs and drumsticks. Divide remaining tarragon butter among thighs and drumsticks, rubbing skin from outside to spread evenly. Season cavity and skin with salt and pepper, then halve remaining lemon and put inside cavity along with garlic. Tie drumsticks together with kitchen string.
• Whisk together honey, lemon juice, oil, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Roast chicken 30 minutes, then brush pan juices and half of honey mixture over chicken and roast 10 minutes more. Brush chicken again with pan juices and remaining honey mixture and continue to roast until thermometer inserted in fleshy part of a thigh (do not touch bone) registers 170°F, about 20 minutes more.
• Transfer chicken to a cutting board and let stand 10 to 15 minutes before carving. Skim fat from pan juices and serve juices with chicken.
