Roast Chicken With Parmesan Thyme Dauphinoise Potatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the minced thyme, minced rosemary, 1 tablespoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Scatter the herb sprigs, lemon and onion wedges, garlic and carrots in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.
• Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Using poultry shears, cut along both sides of the backbone to remove it. Open the chicken breast-side up and press firmly in the center of the breast to flatten. Sprinkle the salt mixture over both sides of the chicken. Place the chicken on top of the aromatics in the baking dish, tucking the wing tips under, and let sit at room temperature for 1 hour.
• When ready to roast, position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F.
• Drizzle the chicken with the olive oil and sprinkle all over with the Parmesan. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into a thigh reaches 165 degrees F, about 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 15 minutes before carving. Serve on a platter with the roasted carrots, lemon, onion and garlic.

Steps:

• Finely grate 1 teaspoon zest from the lemon and place it in a small bowl. (Save the zested lemon for the drippings.) Stir in 2 teaspoons salt, pepper, chopped rosemary and red-pepper flakes, if using. Season the chicken inside and out with salt mixture. Let sit at room temperature for 20 minutes or refrigerate uncovered for up to overnight.
• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Place chicken, breast-side up, in a large skillet, sheet pan or roasting pan. Stuff cavity of chicken with rosemary sprigs. Drizzle breast with a little olive oil.
• Roast chicken for 30 minutes. Sprinkle chicken all over with Parmesan, then continue roasting until bird's juices run clear when skin is pierced with a knife and the skin is golden, 25 to 30 minutes longer.
• Let chicken rest for 10 minutes. Squeeze juice from the zested lemon, to taste, into the pan drippings and season with more salt and red-pepper flakes if you like. Carve and serve with drippings spooned over the meat.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Combine Hellmann's® or Best Foods® Real Mayonnaise with cheese in medium bowl.
• Arrange chicken on baking sheet. Evenly top with mayonnaise mixture, then sprinkle with bread crumbs.
• Bake 20 minutes or until chicken is thoroughly cooked.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. In a shallow bowl, combine butter, mustard, Worcestershire sauce and salt. Place bread crumbs and cheese in another shallow bowl. Dip chicken in butter mixture, then in bread crumb mixture, patting to help coating adhere. , Place in an ungreased 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Drizzle with any remaining butter mixture. Bake, uncovered, until a thermometer inserted in chicken reads 165°, 25-30 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 190C/170C/gas 5. Brush a quarter of the butter over a medium casserole dish, arrange a layer of potatoes in the bottom of the dish, then scatter with a little parmesan, thyme, a drizzle of the cream and salt and pepper. Continue until you've used up all the potato slices, most of the thyme (reserve some to serve, if you like) and about half the cream, then pour the rest of the cream over the final layer.
• Season the chicken with salt and pepper and put the thyme stalks, garlic and bay in the cavity, then rub over the remaining butter. For the best results, sit a roasting rack or ovenproof cooling rack over the gratin dish and sit the chicken over the gratin so the juices can drip into the potatoes. If you don't have a roasting or cooling rack, simply sit the chicken in the middle of the gratin. Roast for 1 hr 20 mins until the chicken skin is golden and it's cooked through. To check, pierce the thigh with a skewer - the juices should run clear.
• When the chicken is ready, remove everything from the oven and turn it up to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Use tongs to lift the chicken onto a board, allowing any juices from the cavity to drizzle over the potatoes as you lift it. Remove the rack, if using, and use a spatula to press the potatoes down, then return to the oven for 10 mins to brown while the chicken rests. Remove the potatoes from the oven, scatter over the reserved thyme, if you like, and leave for 5 mins before serving alongside the chicken. Serve with leafy greens like cabbage or kale.
