CHICKEN WITH ROASTED LEMON AND ROSEMARY SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler.
• Cut a small slice off both ends of each lemon, and then cut in half crosswise. Arrange the lemons, flesh side up, in a flameproof nonreactive baking dish, and season with salt. Broil 6 inches or more from the heat until browned and soft, about 10 minutes. Cool slightly. Squeeze the lemon halves over a sieve suspended over a bowl. Push and stir the pulp through the sieve with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon to get as much juice out as possible. Discard the lemon peels.
• Reduce oven temperature to 425 degrees F.
• Season chicken with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add the chicken, lower the heat to medium, and cook, turning once, until brown on both sides, about 5 minutes. Remove chicken to a plate or baking sheet.
• Return the pan to medium-high heat, add the potatoes, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring and tossing, until brown all over, about 10 minutes. Drain off the excess oil. Arrange the chicken breasts on top of the potatoes and place in the oven until potatoes and chicken are cooked through, about 10 to 15 minutes. Remove the chicken to a platter and put the pan with the potatoes over medium-high heat. Toss well so the pan juices are absorbed into the potatoes. Scrape the potatoes out of the pan onto the platter around the chicken.
• Return the pan to medium-high heat, add the garlic and rosemary, and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add 1 cup of chicken broth and reserved lemon juice. Stir and scrape up all the browned bits that cling to the bottom and sides of the pan, and then add the remaining 1 cup broth. Bring to a simmer stir in parsley and season to taste with salt and pepper. If the sauce tastes too lemony, stir in the optional butter. Pour the sauce over the chicken and potatoes and serve immediately, garnished with rosemary sprigs

Drizzle the pan with a 3-count of oil. Add the prosciutto and rosemary and cook, stirring, until the prosciutto is crisp and lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Push to 1 side of the pan. Season the chicken on both sides with a generous amount of salt and pepper and add it to the pan, skin side down, in a single layer. Cook for about 5 minutes until the skin begins to set and crisp. Turn and cook 3 more minutes. Turn the chicken again, stick the pan in the oven and roast until the chicken is tender and cooked through, about 30 more minutes.
• Take the pan out of the oven. Remove the chicken and prosciutto from of the pan and arrange on a platter to keep warm while you prepare the pan sauce. Pour out all but about 1 tablespoon of the rendered chicken fat and return the pan to the stovetop. Stir in the stock and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, scraping up the flavors stuck to the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon, until reduced to a syrup, 3 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle the pan sauce over the chicken and serve immediately.

ROASTED CHICKEN WITH OLIVES, LEMON, AND GARLIC

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450°F. Place a 13 × 9-inch roasting pan in the oven.
• Rinse the chicken and use paper towels to pat it dry, inside and out. Squeeze 1 of the lemon quarters over the skin and rub the juice around with your fingers. Using your fingers to gently separate the skin from the breast, place a couple of the garlic cloves and some of the lemon zest under the skin of the breast on each side. Let it sit about 10 minutes, then pat the bird dry again, rub the skin with 2 tablespoons olive oil, and season with the salt, pepper, red pepper, and some of the chopped rosemary. Make an incision on the inside of each thigh and insert a garlic clove. Place 3 of the garlic cloves in the cavity, along with the rosemary sprigs and 2 of the lemon quarters.
• You may tie the legs together over the cavity, if you like. Place the chicken breast side up in the preheated roasting pan. Bake for about 30 minutes, watching to make sure the chicken starts to brown. Carefully loosen the chicken from the pan with a spatula and turn it over to brown the underside.
• At this point, lower the oven heat to 400°F. Add the remaining tablespoon olive oil to the pan, then scatter the onion, olives, remaining garlic, lemon quarters and zest, and chopped rosemary around the chicken and cook for about 15 minutes. Turn the chicken over again and stir the onion, olives, and garlic around a little. Cook another 10-15 minutes to re-crisp the skin.
• When the chicken is a deep golden brown, remove it from the oven and let it sit for about 5 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate and collect any juices that drain. Tilt the roasting pan and spoon off the fat, if desired. Stir the olives, onion, and lemon around, pressing on the lemon a little to extract the juice. Add the chicken juices to the pan and scrape the brown bits off the bottom of the pan to incorporate them into the mixture. Spoon the juicy olive-onion mixture around the chicken and serve.

PAN ROASTED CHICKEN WITH LEMON, GARLIC AND ROSEMARY

Steps:

• The key to this dish is the preperation of the chicken. You have to SPATCHCOCK it. This basically means romoving the spine, simply get a knife or pair of butchers scissors and cut through the rib bones either side of the spine, keep this for later. Now lay the chicken down breast side up, ensure the legs and wings aren't caught under the carcass and simply push down to flatten the chicken out.
• Firstly pre-heat the oven to 200C. Take a large oven proof frying pan and place it on the hob at a high heat. Place you garlic cloves on your chopping board and squash them with the side of your knife. add the oil, squashed garlic cloves and the rosemary to the pan, whilst they are heating up slice the lemon in to 5 nice chucky slices then add these and the spine from the chicken to the pan.
• After 2 or 3 mins move everything in the pan to the sides and place the chicken in the pan breast side down and it should start to sizzle nicely. Now season the open side of the carcass with salt and pepper. After 7 or 8 mins check the chicken and see if it's satrting to brown. If so flip it over taking care not to pull the legs off and season this side.
• After another 10 mins or so pull out a couple of the slices of lemon and some rosemary and garlic and place on the top of the chicken. Now place the pan in the middle of the pre heated oven and leave to roast for about 30-40 mins.
• After this time check to make sure it's cooked all the way through by piercing the meat and squeezing the juices out, if they run clear it's cooked. Take the chicken out the pan and seperate the legs and wings from the body and divide the breast into 4. Now crush the lemon slices in the pan with the back of a fork and pour all the juices from the pan over the chicken. I serve this with some crusty bread and a Rocket and Parmesan salad.
