Roast Chicken With Carrots Recipes

GARLIC ROAST CHICKEN

Steps:

• As soon as you get the chicken home, salt it inside and out, wrap it and keep it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• When you are ready to cook the chicken, first preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Pat the outside of the chicken dry with paper towels. Liberally salt and pepper the inside of the chicken and stuff the cavity with the all the garlic and lemon. Tie the legs together with kitchen string and tuck the wing tips under the body of the chicken. Place it in a roasting pan just large enough to hold it and the vegetables. Scatter the onion slices, carrots and potatoes around the chicken. Brush the outside of the chicken with the butter and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Roast the chicken for 1 1/2 hours, or until the juices run clear when you cut between a leg and thigh. Remove the chicken to a platter and cover with aluminum foil. Place the vegetables back in the oven and continue cooking for an additional 15 minutes.
• When the vegetables are cooked, carve the chicken and place the slices on the platter surrounded by the vegetables. Drizzle some pan juices over the chicken and vegetables.

ROAST CHICKEN WITH CARROTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Rinse chicken and pat dry with paper towels. Zest the lemon and set zest aside. Cut the zested lemon into 6 wedges, and place inside the chicken cavity along with 4 sprigs of thyme.
• Mince garlic, and mix with 1 tsp kosher salt. Remove leaves from 6 stems of thyme, and mix with the garlic, along with the lemon zest. Using your fingers or the end of a wooden spoon, separate the chicken skin from the breasts, starting at the neck. Using fingers, insert paste under the skin, working it across the breast.
• Rub the whole chicken with butter (or olive oil). Sprinkle all sides with remaining salt and pepper. Place a roasting rack in your roasting pan, and scatter onions and carrots around the edges. Place chicken breast-side-down in roasting pan.
• Roast chicken in preheated oven for 20 minutes. Rotate bird on its side, and roast another 20 minutes. Rotate bird to the opposite side and roast for 20 more minutes. Place chicken breast-side-up for the remaining 30 to 40 minutes. When juices run clear when cut into between the leg and thigh, the bird is done. (Total cooking time will be 1 hour 30 minutes to 1 hour 40 minutes.) Remove from oven and tent with foil; let rest for 10 minutes. Skim fat off pan juices and set aside.
• Plate chicken with carrots and onions scattered around, pour juices over chicken and veggies, and serve.

• Cook and stir onion in oil in the same skillet until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add beer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Continue cooking until most of the beer is reduced, 2 to 4 minutes more. Stir chicken broth, carrots, lemon, rosemary, and thyme into beer mixture. Arrange chicken, skin-side up, over vegetables.
• Roast in the preheated oven until chicken is golden brown and crispy, about 50 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Transfer chicken and vegetables to a large platter and let rest, uncovered.
• Bring remaining broth and juices in the skillet to a boil and cook until sauce is thickened, about 10 minutes. Season sauce with salt.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Toss together the carrots, shallots, orange peel, rosemary and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and the olives. Season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and a pinch of black pepper. Scatter the vegetables in a single layer on a baking sheet or roasting pan.
• 2. Toss together the remaining olive oil, salt, pepper and paprika with the chicken pieces. Place the chicken between the vegetables on the baking sheet and roast until the chicken is just cooked through but still juicy, and the carrots are fork tender, 40 minutes.

ONE-PAN ROASTED CHICKEN WITH CARROTS

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 425°F.
• 2. Arrange the carrots and onion in a single layer on a greased baking sheet. (I also added a baby beet, peeled and halved).
• 3. Slice the top off a head of garlic; discard the top and place on the tray.
• 4. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil over the vegetables; season with the rosemary, and salt and pepper.
• 5. Top with the chicken thighs. Rub each thigh with 1 teaspoon olive oil; season with salt and pepper.
• 6. Roast in the oven until the chicken skin is golden and the carrots are tender, 15 to 25 minutes.
• 7. To serve, divide the vegetables and chicken thighs among four plates.
• Note: Candidly, I actually had already cooked chicken, which I plopped on top to give you an idea of how this looks, so your chicken will likely look different. The time to cook will depend on how large your carrots are - I halved lengthwise some of the larger ones, mine took about 25 minutes to get tender. Test chicken to make sure it's done - thighs vary so much in size. I made only half the recipe.

OVEN-ROASTED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH CARROTS AND RED POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Wash chicken breasts and pat dry. Separate the skin from the meat to create a pocket on each breast.
• Combine garlic, olive oil, salt, pepper, and rosemary leaves in a small bowl; stir to combine. Rub about 1/6 of olive oil mixture under the skin of each breast and rub another 1/6 on the outside of the skin. Sprinkle with additional salt and pepper if you wish.
• Arrange carrots, potatoes, and onion in the bottom of a roasting pan or casserole dish and season with salt and pepper. Place chicken, skin-side up, on top of the vegetables.
• Roast in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and cover with aluminum foil. Lower the temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and cook until vegetables are tender and chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 20 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

ROAST CHICKEN & STICKY CARROTS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C /gas 6. Trim the leaves off the carrots. Scrub the carrots if muddy, but leave them whole. Tip them into a roasting tray that will be a snug fit for the carrots with the chicken on top. Halve the lemon and finely chop two of the garlic cloves. Squeeze a little lemon juice over the carrots, then toss in the chopped garlic, cumin seeds, honey, half the butter, plenty of pepper and a little salt.
• Pick the leaves from the parsley and set aside. Push the parsley stalks, the lemon halves, the remaining garlic and the sprig of bay into the cavity of the chicken and season with plenty of pepper and salt if you want to.
• Sit the chicken directly on top of the carrots and smear the remaining butter over the breast. Roast the chicken for 30 mins until starting to brown, then remove from the oven. Lift the chicken onto a board and give the carrots a good stir to make sure they're completely coated in all the juices. Return the chicken to the roasting tray, baste the breast with the juices and continue to roast for a further 40-50 mins until cooked all the way through.
• Lift the chicken onto a board and leave to rest for 10 mins. Meanwhile, roughly chop the reserved parsley leaves. A few mins before serving, place the carrots over a low heat until sizzling, then stir the parsley through the carrots. To serve, sit the chicken either back on top or serve the chicken and the carrots separately

OLIVE OIL-ROASTED CHICKEN WITH CARAMELIZED CARROTS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325 degrees. Season chicken with salt and pepper.
• If the carrots have their green tops, trim them so that the stems are about 1/2- to 1-inch long. Save the greens for garnish or for using in salsa verde or pesto. (They can be treated like parsley.)
• Arrange chicken in a large shallow baking dish or shallow braising pot - about 2 1/2 to 3 quarts - so that the legs are snug and lying flat. Scatter garlic head halves, carrots, lemon slices and oregano sprigs among the chicken pieces, nestling everything in there. (It's O.K. if the carrots stick out a bit.) Pour the olive oil over the chicken and vegetables. (Yes, you're using all that oil! Don't worry, it can be repurposed; see Tip.) Season again with salt and pepper.
• Place in the oven, uncovered, and roast until the chicken is so tender it nearly falls off the bone and the carrots and lemons are nicely caramelized, 55 to 65 minutes.
• Remove from oven and let cool slightly. Divide chicken, vegetables and lemons among plates (or serve straight from the dish it was cooked in). Scatter with carrot tops, if you have them, and more oregano before eating. Reserve the leftover schmaltzy olive oil in the baking dish for another purpose.

• Meanwhile, heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Cook chicken, skin side down, until golden brown, 5-8 minutes. Turn chicken over, transfer skillet to oven, and roast until cooked through, 10-15 minutes longer.
• While chicken and carrots are roasting, mix yogurt and lemon juice in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
• Remove chicken and carrots from oven; transfer chicken to a large plate. Add carrots, shallot, and tarragon to skillet and toss to coat in pan drippings. Serve with lemon yogurt.
