ROAST CHICKEN WITH MAPLE BUTTER AND ROSEMARY

Roast Chicken With Maple Butter and Rosemary image

This simple roast chicken combines the classic fall flavors of maple and rosemary with melted butter, which is basted over the bird as it cooks to keep it juicy. The butter browns slightly and helps caramelize the outside thanks to the sugars in the maple syrup. The result is a fragrant, sweet-and-salty chicken that makes the house smell great. There will be plenty of buttery pan juices left over, which you should most certainly pass around the table, but they would also be delicious spooned over rice pilaf.

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

1 (3 1/2-pound) whole chicken
Kosher salt and black pepper
2 to 3 rosemary sprigs, plus 2 1/2 teaspoons finely chopped rosemary
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons maple syrup

Steps:

Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Pat the chicken dry and season it well with salt and pepper, both inside and out. Place the chicken breast-side up in a 10-inch cast-iron or ovenproof skillet and stuff the rosemary sprigs into the bird's cavity.
In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium-low heat. Add the chopped rosemary and the maple syrup, and cook together until the rosemary is fragrant and the mixture has thickened slightly, about 1 to 2 minutes. Spoon all of the mixture over the chicken, making sure it is evenly covered. A decent amount will end up on the bottom of the pan, and that's O.K.
Roast the chicken, basting with the pan juices every 15 to 20 minutes or so, until the chicken is glossy and golden brown and registers 165 degrees with an instant thermometer in the thickest part of the thigh, about 55 to 60 minutes. Remove from the oven and baste an additional time, if desired. Allow the chicken to rest for 10 minutes before carving. Whisk remaining juice and pass at the table.

HAPPY ORANGE MAPLE CHICKEN

Happy Orange Maple Chicken image

I decided to make a sweet chicken dish. I had just made a wonderful "Boozy Maple" chicken recipe that I got from a fellow 'Zaar-ite...( Thank you Mirj!!) and I wanted to tweak it some. So I decided to use maple syrup and orange juice (in place of the booze in the other recipe). It worked out just fine!I had time to let them marinate for an hour before cooking, but I believe it would be fine just baking it without the marinating time. You could also use any other chicken or turkey that you like.

GRILLED MAPLE CHICKEN WITH SMOKEY GREENS

Grilled Maple Chicken with Smokey Greens image

Provided by Michael Symon : Food Network

Categories main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

1 tablespoon maple syrup
1 tablespoon mustard (I'm using Dijon)
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 pounds grill meat (I'm using a whole chicken, split)
Salt and pepper
1 pound lunch meat or bacon, diced (I'm using bacon)
1 pound leafy greens (I'm using kale and mustard greens)
1 teaspoon chile flakes, optional
1 splash vinegar (I'm using sherry vinegar)

Steps:

Preheat a grill or oven to 450 degrees F. If using a grill, set up hot and cool zones by turning one side of a gas grill to the high setting or by banking very hot coals on one side of a charcoal grill.
Whisk together the maple syrup, mustard and soy sauce in a medium bowl. Toss the chicken in the marinade and season with salt and pepper. Place the chicken on the hot side of the grill bone-side down and grill 3 to 5 minutes. Move the chicken to the cool side of the grill, close the lid and cook until the thickest part of a thigh registers 160 degrees F, 30 to 40 minutes. If using the oven, place the chicken bone-side down on a sheet tray and roast until the thickest part of a thigh registers 160 degrees F, 30 to 40 minutes.
Meanwhile, add the bacon to a large saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until crispy, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the greens, chile flakes if using, a pinch of salt and 1/4 cup water and cover with the lid. Cook until the greens are tender, about 5 minutes. Splash with some vinegar and serve with the chicken on top.

MINTY, BOOZY CHICKEN

Minty, Boozy Chicken image

This is like pouring a cooked mojito over stewed chicken, with the rum, lime, and herbs mingling beautifully with the chicken juices. Serve it with rice and a cold, crispy Alsatian white like a Pinot Blanc.

Provided by Eric Gower

Yield Serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 16

Ingredients

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, finely minced
5 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
1 pinch ground cumin
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 cup chopped fresh mint
1 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 orange, zested and juiced
2 limes, zested and juiced
1 lime, for serving
3 tablespoons dark rum
Olive oil spray
1 large onion, sliced into wheels
8 pieces organic chicken

Steps:

Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter with 1 tablespoon of the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced onion, garlic, cumin, salt, and pepper, turn the heat down to low, and saute for about 10 minutes, until the onion softens. Transfer the mixture to a blender, then add the mint and cilantro, zests, juices, and rum and puree. Reserve 1/2 cup of the puree and use the rest to marinate the chicken for a few hours in the refrigerator.
Preheat the oven to 400˚F. Melt the remaining butter with the remaining oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken pieces, working in batches if necessary, and brown both sides, about 10 minutes.
When nicely browned, transfer the chicken pieces with tongs to a plate. In the same skillet, cook the sliced onion gently for a few minutes, until slightly softened. Return the chicken to the skillet, skin side down, salt and pepper liberally, and pour the marinade over them. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 30 minutes.
Using tongs, flip each piece over, return to the oven, and bake for another 30 minutes, or until the chicken-especially thighs, if you're using them-is fully cooked. Remove the chicken and transfer to a serving platter. Pour the reserved 1/2 cup puree into the pan and mix it around with a spatula. Pour this sauce over the chicken. Serve with lime wedges and a small bowl of salt to pass around.

A great no-fuss dish for a dinner party

Provided by Mary Cadogan

Categories Dinner, Lunch, Main course

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts , about 500g/1lb 2oz total weight
3 tbsp maple syrup
1 tbsp wholegrain mustard
grated zest of 1 orange
1 tbsp soy sauce

Steps:

Make several diagonal slashes across each chicken breast. Tip the other ingredients into a wide shallow bowl and swirl them together until everything is well mixed. Add the chicken breasts and turn them in the mixture until they are evenly coated. At this point you can cover the dish with cling film and chill the chicken for 24 hours, but it's also fine to cook them straight away.
Preheat the grill or light the BBQ. Then cook the chicken for 5-6 minutes each side, turning once and brushing or spooning over more marinade as you go, until the chicken is browned and glossy. Serve the chicken on a bed of dressed salad leaves.

THE TARDY HOSTESS'S VARIATION ON MIRJ'S BOOZY MAPLE CHICKEN

The Tardy Hostess's Variation on Mirj's Boozy Maple Chicken image

With less than two hours to go before the beginning of our big holiday meal, I still had to make chicken for 16 people, and a whole bunch of other dishes. Desperate for a new idea, I came to 'Zaar, hoping it would (once again) save the day. Hooray for Mirj! I took her Boozy Maple Chicken recipe and "followed" it in my way, i.e. by substituting half the ingredients but more or less following it perfectly. Anyhow, here is what I came up with. Hope you like it. I have given the quantities for 6 ppl, but I really made it for many more.
