• After lemons have roasted 20 minutes, place 1/4 cup flour in a shallow bowl. Season chicken with salt and pepper; coat with flour, shaking off excess. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Add chicken and cook until browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side; remove and set aside.
• Add garlic to skillet; cook 30 seconds. Add wine and cook, scraping up browned bits from bottom, until reduced by half, about 1 minute. Whisk in remaining tablespoon flour; cook until just starting to brown, about 30 seconds. Add 1/4 cup broth, whisking until combined. Add remaining broth, olives, zest, and lemon juice.

Add wine and cook, stirring, until reduced by about half, 2-3 minutes. Using a spoon, transfer chicken juices from roasting pan to skillet and cook until thickened, 3-5 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Spoon sauce around chicken and garnish with fresh parsley.

Steps:

• Set oven to 425 degrees F (set oven rack to bottom position).
• Grease a roasting pan (use a pan large enough to hold the chicken halves and potatoes).
• Using kitchen shears cut the chicken down the center between the breasts, then cut down each side of the back bone, then discard the back bone.

• Continue to cook for another 30-40 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through, you may want to baste with pan juices a few times during cooking (cooking times will vary slightly depending on the size of the chicken).
• Serve the chicken with pan juices.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• Split the chicken in half, slicing only through the backbone and removing it, or ask your butcher to do this.
• In a small bowl, combine the lemon zest, garlic, fennel seeds and parsley with one teaspoon of salt, a quarter teaspoon of freshly ground pepper and two tablespoons olive oil.
• Rub three-quarters of the resulting paste evenly under the skin of the chicken, including the thighs, being careful not to tear the skin. Rub the remaining paste on the underside of the chicken. Squeeze the juice of the lemon quarters on the cut surfaces and save the lemon.
• Choose a baking dish that snugly accommodates the butterflied chicken. Oil the pan lightly and scatter half of the olives, the lemon quarters and the fennel branches (if used) about the pan. Place the chicken skin-side up in the dish with the wing tips tucked under. Brush lightly with oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste and scatter the remaining olives over the chicken.
• Place the chicken, uncovered, on the middle rack of the oven.
• Roast the chicken, basting every 15 minutes, until it is golden brown and the joints move freely. The chicken is done when the internal temperature reads 170 degrees, about one hour.

Steps:

• Put oil in deep skillet or casserole. Turn heat to medium-high and wait a minute, until oil is hot. Add chicken, skin-side down, and brown it well, rotating and turning pieces as necessary and sprinkling with salt and pepper as they cook; 10 to 15 minutes total. Turn heat to medium, remove chicken and pour off all but 2 tablespoons of fat.
• Add onion, ginger, cinnamon, garlic, cumin, paprika, 1/2 teaspoon or more of pepper and some salt and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes, until onion softens. Add stock and raise heat to medium-high; return chicken to pan, skin-side up. Cook at a lively simmer for about 10 minutes.
• Add olives and continue to cook until chicken is done, another 10 to 15 minutes or so. Add lemon juice, then taste and adjust seasoning. Garnish and serve.

• For roasted lemons:
• Preheat oven to 325°F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange lemon slices in single layer on prepared sheet. Brush lemon slices with olive oil; sprinkle lightly with salt. Roast until slightly dry and beginning to brown around edges, about 25 minutes. (Lemons can be made 1 day ahead. Transfer to container. Cover; chill.)

• Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Dredge chicken in flour to coat both sides; shake off excess. Heat 5 tablespoons oil in heavy large skillet over high heat. Add chicken and cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. Stir in olives and capers. Add stock and bring to boil, scraping up browned bits from bottom of skillet. Boil until liquid is reduced to syrup consistency, turning chicken over after 3 minutes, about 5 minutes. Add butter, roasted lemon slices, and 2 tablespoons parsley; simmer until butter melts and chicken is cooked through, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to platter. Sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon parsley.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425?.
• Combine the lemon zest, lemon juice, olive oil, 2 tablespoons rosemary and a dash of salt and pepper in a small bowl.

• Roast for about 40 minutes, until the chicken is done.
• Remove the chicken from the pan to a plate. Add the chicken broth to the skillet and cook on the stovetop over medium heat for a couple of minutes, scraping up the tasty cooked bits from the bottom of the pan.
• Add the green olives and cook just a minute more.
• Pour the sauce over the chicken and garnish with the extra tablespoon of chopped rosemary.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350.
• On a work surface, mince the garlic with 1 teaspoon of kosher salt.
• Transfer the garlic to a small bowl and whisk in the lemon juice, rosemary, sweet paprika, cumin, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper, whisk in the olive oil.
• Using your fingers, gently loosen the skin from the chicken breasts, thighs and drumsticks; try not to tear the skin.
• Season the cavity of the chicken with salt and pepper and put the chicken in a roasting pan.
• Using a small spoon, pour all but 1 tablespoon of the seasoning mixture under the skin of the chicken, rubbing it into the breasts, thighs and drumsticks.
• Rub the butter under the skin of the breast meat.
• Rub the remaining 1 tablespoon of the seasoned oil all over the chicken and season it with salt.
• Put the reserved lemon halves in the cavity of the chicken and tie the legs together with twine.
• Roast the chicken for about 1 1/2 hours, or until the juices from the cavity run clear and the chicken is browned and crisp.
• Let the chicken rest in the roasting pan for 15 minutes.
• Tilt the chicken to drain the juices from the cavity into the pan; transfer the chicken to a carving board.
• Pour the pan juices into a bowl and skin the fat from the surface.
• Strain the juice into a small saucepan and keep warm over low heat.
• Carve the chicken and serve with the pan juices.

Steps:

• Season chicken inside and out with salt and pepper.
• Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Peel the potatoes, cut them in half, then cut halves into 2 or 3 thick wedges. Boil potatoes for about 5 minutes, until barely done, then drain and cool.
• As potatoes cool, peel outer layer of garlic stalks and cut off roots. Slice both tender white and green parts crosswise into thin rings, then sprinkle with salt and roughly chop to resemble "minced." (You should have about 1 cup of chopped alliums, whether you use green garlic, or a combination of scallions and chives.) Transfer chopped garlic to a dish and cover with olive oil.
• Heat oven to 375 degrees. Arrange potatoes on the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Set the seasoned chicken on top of the potatoes. Tip the chicken up and transfer the garlic-oil mixture into the bird's cavity, then place breast side down, with potatoes surrounding.
• Take a generous handful of herb sprigs (stem-on) and stuff into the cavity.
• Roast, uncovered, for about 1 hour until chicken is nicely browned and thigh juices run clear when probed with a paring knife. Remove chicken, tipping the inside juices onto the potatoes, and keep warm on a plate.
• Raise oven temperature to 425 degrees. Using a spatula, move the potatoes around the roasting pan, allowing juices to coat potatoes well. Return to oven to brown potatoes. Baste potatoes every 5 minutes for 15 minutes, or until potatoes are golden. Sprinkle with parsley. Carve bird and serve.
