CHICKEN STOCK
Steps:
- Place chicken, vegetables, and herbs and spices in 12-quart stockpot. Set opened steamer basket directly on ingredients in pot and pour over water. Cook on high heat until you begin to see bubbles break through the surface of the liquid. Turn heat down to medium low so that stock maintains low, gentle simmer. Skim the scum from the stock with a spoon or fine mesh strainer every 10 to 15 minutes for the first hour of cooking and twice each hour for the next 2 hours. Add hot water as needed to keep bones and vegetables submerged. Simmer uncovered for 6 to 8 hours.
- Strain stock through a fine mesh strainer into another large stockpot or heatproof container discarding the solids. Cool immediately in large cooler of ice or a sink full of ice water to below 40 degrees. Place in refrigerator overnight. Remove solidified fat from surface of liquid and store in container with lid in refrigerator for 2 to 3 days or in freezer for up to 3 months. Prior to use, bring to boil for 2 minutes. Use as a base for soups and sauces.

Steps:
- Cut the butterflied and pounded breasts into 6 to 8 even pieces. Season with the salt on both sides and place on a rack set inside a sheet pan (technically we use "half" sheet pans for this). Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Combine the breadcrumbs, potato chips, oregano, parsley and garlic powder in a gallon zip-top bag and crush into a course meal.
- Set up a breading station with three loaf pans: place the flour in the first pan, the beaten eggs in the second, and the breadcrumb mixture in the third. Set a clean wire rack inside a sheet pan to hold the breaded pieces.
- Unwrap the chicken and blot well with paper towels then dredge the chicken first in the flour (shake off the excess), then dip in the beaten eggs (again, drain the excess), and finally coat with the breadcrumbs before placing on the rack.
- Position an oven rack in the top third of the oven and crank the broiler to high. Line a clean pan with paper towels and have it standing by.
- Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in an 11-inch sauté pan over medium heat. When the butter foams, add half the breaded chicken to the pan, but don't overcrowd. Cook, undisturbed, until crisp and golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to the clean rack, wipe out the pan and repeat with the remaining butter, oil and chicken.
- Spread 3/4 cup of the red sauce into the bottom of a a 9-by-13-inch broiler-safe baking dish or pan and broil until the sauce bubbles and begins to caramelize, about 2 minutes.
- Remove the dish from the oven and arrange the chicken pieces in a single layer. Dot the chicken with the remaining red sauce, leaving bare spots to retain some crispy bits. Scatter the fontina and mozzarella over the sauce.
- Return to the broiler until the cheese is bubbly and beginning to brown, about 1 minute to 1 minute and 30 seconds.
- Garnish with chopped flat-leaf parsley.
- Work the garlic, salt and 1/2 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil together with a mortar and pestle until a paste forms.
- Heat the remaining 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic paste and cook, stirring, until it begins to brown, about 2 minutes.
- Add the anchovies and the red pepper flakes and cook until the anchovies begin to break down, about 1 minute. (I usually use the back of a wooden spoon to crush the anchovies.)
- Add the tomatoes and break them up with the back of the spoon then submerge the Parmesan rind in the sauce. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, until the sauce is almost dry, about 1 hour.
- Discard the Parmesan rind or feed it to the dog. Use the sauce immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge. (See Cook's Note.)

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Combine the olives, lemon zest and garlic in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Mix the smoked paprika, olive oil, 3/4 teaspoon of the salt and pepper into a paste in a large bowl.
- Lay the chicken thighs skin-side down. Using a pair of kitchen shears, make a cut down the length of the bone to expose it, then cut the meat away from the bone. Discard the bone.
- Stuff about 2 tablespoons of the olive mixture under the skin of each chicken thigh and rub paprika paste on each. Arrange the chicken thighs, skin-side up, on a cooling rack.
- Arrange the potato slices and onion pieces in an even layer on a foil-lined half sheet pan. (I also sprinkled left over paste on potatoes.).
- Place cooling rack over potatoes and bake until the skin is crispy and the potatoes are tender, 55 to 60 minutes. If you prefer the potatoes crispy, remove the rack with the chicken and return to the oven for an additional 5 to 10 minutes. Serve immediately.

GOOD EATS CHICKEN PICCATA
Roughly translated, piccata means "sharp," and refers to an entire class of dishes featuring very thin cutlets cooked in a pan and served with a sharp or piccata sauce.The flavor of this chicken dish is piccata indeed with the acid of the lemon and the bracing brininess of the capers. There's also a rounded umami from the mushrooms. And to be honest, the chicken thighs are way better than the turkey breast I used in my original application - never send breasts to do a job better suited to thighs. This recipe first appeared in Season 2 of Good Eats: Reloaded.

Steps:
- Combine the broth, wine, and lemon juice in a liquid measuring cup and set aside. Season the thighs with 2 teaspoons of the salt and all of the pepper.
- Dump the flour into a gallon-size freezer bag and add one thigh. Push out as much air as possible and seal the bag. Shake to coat then lay the bag (and the thigh) flat on a counter or cutting board and pound (as gently as you can) with a meat pounder. When the thigh is about 1/4-inch thick, remove to a plate and repeat with the remaining pieces.
- Place a heavy 11-inch, straight-sided sauté pan with a tight-fitting lidA good braise requires a good seal. over high heat for 1 minute. Add 1 tablespoon each of the butter and oil to the pan and when the butter just stops bubbling, carefully slide two thighs into the fat. Reduce the heat to medium-high and cook, giving the pan a gentle shake every now and then, until bolden brown - 2 to 4 minutes. Flip the thighs and repeat.
- Remove the chicken from the pan to a large plate or platter, add another tablespoon each of butter and oil, and cook another two thighs as before. Then follow with the final two thighsAvoid the urge to overcrowd the pan, or the thighs will stew rather than brown..
- When the last pieces of chicken exit the pan, immediately add the mushrooms and the remaining teaspoon of salt. Sauté until the mushrooms start to turn golden brown - 5 minutes, give or take.
- Stir the mushrooms out to the circumference of the pan and add the capers right to the middle, stirring until they start to brown and pop - 1 minute. Deglaze with a third of the wine-broth mixture, stirring to dissolve any browned goodness stuck to the bottom of the pan.
- Return the chicken to the pan, overlapping the pieces as needed, and pour in the remaining wine-broth mixture. Arrange the lemon slices atop the chicken, slap on the lid, reduce the heat to low and cook until the chicken is fork-tender - 5 minutes.
- Evacuate the thighs and arrange on the plater. Boost the heat back to high, add the final tablespoon of butter to the sauce, and stir constantly until the sauce begins to thicken - 1 to 2 minutes. Pour over the chicken, garnish with new lemon slices if desired, top with the parsley and serve.
ONE POT CHICKEN
True confession: When it comes to a roast or rotisserie chicken, I don't care a hoot about crisp skin. Sure, I want it flavorful, and golden brown is always nice, but what I'm after is great meat. Freak? I think not. So here is my recipe for roast chicken. I've never done this on television because it rarely creates a "camera perfect" skin, but listen to me...it's the best chicken I've ever made. And it may just be the easiest. I know...I've gone on the record many times as being anti-baste, but that's when turkey was the critter in question and turkey ain't chicken. In this case, we want to promote browning and getting some of the fallen fat up top will assist that process...in this case. This recipe first appeared in EveryDayCook.Photo by Lynne Calamia

Steps:
- Dissolve the first dose of salt in the water in a containerI typically use a straight-sided container to ensure the bird will submerge. large enough to hold the chicken. Make sure the bird's cavity is empty and place in brine, breast-side down. Cover and refrigerate 8 to 12 hours. (I usually do this in the morning after I make coffee so that I can cook it that night.)
- To cook, place an empty 4-quart cast-iron Dutch oven in the middle of your oven and crank it to 550°F.
- Give the oven at least 30 minutes to get hot. Meanwhile, drain and thoroughly dry the bird with paper towels, allowing it to come to room temperature while you wait on the oven.
- When the oven is good and hot, rub the bird down with the oil and sprinkle on the remaining teaspoon of salt. Then, open the oven door, slide out the rack holding the Dutch oven, and drop the bird straight down into it, breast-side up. Quickly cover with the hot lid, slide the rack back in, and close the door as quickly as possible.
- Leave the chicken alone for 15 minutes. Then, remove the lid and baste the top of the bird with some of the juices that have accumulated at the bottom of the pot. Cook 12 minutes.
- Remove the Dutch oven to a safe spot (the cooktop would be fine) and don't touch for 10 minutes. Then, remove the lid and allow the bird to rest for 5 minutes. At this point, use your instant-read thermometer to take a reading right in the middle of the breast. I usually see 150°F at this point, and that's ok. Carryover heat will take care of the rest.
- Slide a pair of tongs or a wooden spoon into the cavity and gently lift the bird out to a platter or carving board, tilting it first so that any hot juices drain into the pot.
- I serve this in a rather unorthodox, but insanely satisfactory manner: Pour the juices (a lovely co-mingling of schmaltz and jus) into a few bowls and position around the platter which should be central to the table. Give everyone a knife (not too long or sharp) and allow them to carve off hunks of bird, which should be dipped (by hand) into the juices and consumed forthwith. Plates? We don't need no stinkin' plates! But you will need several napkins. You're welcome.
RING OF FIRE GRILLED CHICKEN
Steps:
- Lay the chicken on a plastic cutting board, breast side up, with the neck facing you. Remove both wings at the joint between the wing and drumette. Remove the thigh quarters by slicing down on either side of the back end of the breast. Grab both legs, pop the joints that connect to the back, and turn the bird over. Remove the thighs and legs by slicing where they attach to the backbone. Hold the thigh and leg together, feel for the slight indentation where the joints meet and make an incision at this joint. Set the leg and thigh down and slice to separate. Repeat with the other leg piece. Turn the bird back over, breast side up, put your knife against the breastbone and slice down along the rib cage, cutting the breast meat away from the bone. Be sure to include the drumette when removing the breast. Repeat on the other breast. Freeze the carcass for making stock or discard.
- Put the chicken pieces in a 1 gallon resealable plastic bag with the water, honey, and salt. Seal the bag and move around vigorously for 1 to 2 minutes to distribute the honey and dissolve the salt. Set the bag in a leak-proof container and refrigerate for 1 1/2 hours.
- Meanwhile, combine curry powder, chili powder, cocoa powder, adobo powder, cumin, and hot smoked paprika in a 1 gallon resealable bag.
- Pat the chicken with paper towels until very dry. Do not rinse.
- Put the chicken in the bag with the spice mixture and shake to thoroughly coat the chicken. Lay the pieces on a cooling rack set inside a half sheet pan. Rest for 30 minutes.
- Spritz 2 pieces of newspaper lightly with vegetable oil and put in the bottom of a charcoal chimney starter. Fill the chimney starter with natural chunk charcoal, 2 to 3 pounds, and set on the charcoal grate of a kettle grill until hot and ashy, approximately 15 to 20 minutes. Prepare a ring of heavy-duty aluminum foil with the center 9-inches in diameter. Put this ring over the chimney starter and lay on the charcoal grate.
- Carefully and evenly distribute the hot charcoal outside the ring. Set an aluminum pie pan in the center of the ring to catch any drippings. Set the cooking grate in place and heat for 2 to 3 minutes.
- Lightly oil the cooking grate. Arrange the chicken pieces, skin side down, on the grate over the hot coals. Turn the legs a quarter turn every 3 to 4 minutes. Turn the thighs, wings, and breasts after 4 to 5 minutes. Skin should blister and darken in color. Adjust intensity of heat by turning the grill grate to expose chicken pieces to cooler or hotter coals, as needed, and to avoid flare-ups.
- After 9 to 10 minutes total cook time, move the breast to the center of the grill and cover with a second aluminum pie pan. After 10 to 11 minutes total cook time, put the wings on top of the pie pan. Lean the thighs and legs against the side of the aluminum pie pan away from the direct heat of the coals. Turn every 2 minutes. Put any pieces that finish cooking on top of the pan. After 18 to 20 minutes total cook time, check the temperature with an instant-read thermometer inserted in the deepest part of each piece. The pieces should reach 155 degrees F.
- Remove the chicken to a clean, medium bowl. Cover with a tea towel and rest 5 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter and serve immediately
CHICKEN KIEV
Pounded wafer-thin, stuffed with herb butter, and fried to golden brown perfection, Chicken Kiev sounds less Russian and suspiciously...French. And that's because it is. French food was very popular in 18th-century Russia. Chicken Kiev actually got its name from a bunch of restaurant owners in New York City who were trying to attract Russian immigrants. Me? I just think it tastes good. This recipe first appeared in Season 8 of Good Eats and was updated in Season 2 of Good Eats: Reloaded.

Steps:
- Combine the butter, parsley, tarragon, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper in the bowl of a stand mixer. Beat until well combined. Place the mixture on plastic wrap or wax paper and roll into small log, and freeze while preparing the chicken.
- Set the chicken breasts, one at a time, on a large piece of plastic wrap, lightly spritz the top of the chicken with water, fold the plastic wrap over the chicken, and spritz the top of the plastic wrap with water. Pound to no less than 1/8-inch thick. Season each piece of chicken with salt and pepper.
- Lay a breast on a new piece of plastic wrap and place one quarter of the compound butter and 1 tablespoon of the panko in the center of each breast. Using the plastic wrap to assist, fold in the ends of the breast and roll into a tight log, completely enclosing butter. Repeat with each breast. Refrigerate the breasts for 2 hours or up to overnight.
- Place egg and water mixture and the remaining panko into separate shallow dishes. Heat 1/2 inch of vegetable oil in a 12-inch sauté pan to 375ºF over medium-high heat.
- Dip each breast in the egg mixture and then roll in the breadcrumbs. Gently place each breast in oil, seam-side down, and cook until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165ºF. Remove to a wire rack set in a half sheet pan to drain and rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:
- Place chicken pieces into a plastic container and cover with buttermilk. Cover and refrigerate for 12 to 24 hours.
- Melt enough shortening (over low heat) to come just 1/3-inch up the side of a 12-inch cast iron skillet or heavy fry pan. Once shortening liquefies raise heat to 325 degrees F. Do not allow oil to go over 325 degrees F.
- Drain chicken in a colander. Combine salt, paprika, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper. Liberally season chicken with this mixture. Dredge chicken in flour and shake off excess.
- Place chicken skin side down into the pan. Put thighs in the center, and breast and legs around the edge of the pan. The oil should come half way up the pan. Cook chicken until golden brown on each side, approximately 10 to 12 minutes per side. More importantly, the internal temperature should be right around 180 degrees. (Be careful to monitor shortening temperature every few minutes.)
- Drain chicken on a rack over a sheet pan. Don't drain by setting chicken directly on paper towels or brown paper bags. If you need to hold the chicken before serving, cover loosely with foil but avoid holding in a warm oven, especially if it's a gas oven.
GOOD EATS CHICKEN KIEV (FROM ALTON BROWN 2004)
Chicken Kiev', aka Tsiplenokovo Po-Kievski and also known as 'Chicken Supreme' (in Europe), is a boned and flattened chicken breast that is then rolled around a chilled piece of herbed butter which is then breaded and fried. This method of preparing chicken is not of Russian origin as the name Kiev' would imply. It was actually created by French chef, Nicolas (Francois) Appert (1749-1841). It is said that restaurants in NYC wanting to welcome the many Russian immigrants gave the name Kiev. The name went back to Europe and there known as 'Chicken Supreme'. After World War II, Chicken Kiev became popular in Russian restaurants. Russian cookbooks have recipes for a similar dish called "côtelettes de volaille". This version is compliments of Alton Brown. We baked it (rather than fry) at 400F. for 30 minutes with great results. The tarragon and panko give this recipe a very unique flavor.
