ROASTED CAPON
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Place the capon, breast-side up, in a large roasting pan and pat the outside dry with paper towels. Sprinkle the cavity generously with salt and pepper. Place the lemons and thyme inside the cavity. Tie the legs together with kitchen string and tuck the wings under the body. Brush the capon with half of the melted butter, then sprinkle with 1 tablespoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Place the onions around the capon, pour the rest of the melted butter over the onions and sprinkle the onions with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Place the capon in the oven and roast for 1 1/2 hours, until the juices run clear when you cut between the leg and the thigh.
- Remove the capon from the oven and cover the pan with aluminum foil. Allow the capon to rest for 20 minutes, then carve it and serve warm with the onions.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Remove the neck and giblets from the cavity and rinse the chicken under cold water, inside and out. Pat dry thoroughly with paper towels. Season the body and cavity of the chicken generously with salt and pepper. In a small bowl, mix together the butter, lemon juice and chopped herbs. Rub the herbed butter all over the chicken. Put the lemon halves, onion, garlic and whole herbs inside the bird. Tie the legs together with kitchen twine to help hold its shape.
- Place the chicken, breast side down, on a V-rack in a roasting pan. Cooking the chicken on a rack helps make its skin crisp and keeps it from sticking to the bottom of the pan. Pour water in the roasting pan to prevent the fat drippings from burning and smoking.
- Roast the chicken for about 20 minutes, then carefully turn the bird over breast side up. It is best to take the pan out of the oven, close the oven door to maintain the temperature, and rotate the chicken on the counter. Baste the chicken all over with the pan drippings. Turn the heat down to 375 degrees F and return the pan to the oven. Continue to roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh reads 165 degrees to 170 degrees F, count on this taking about 2 hours. Remove the chicken to a platter and let stand for 15 minutes so the juices settle back into the meat before carving.
- Meanwhile, pour the drippings from the roasting pan into a gravy separator or measuring cup to let the fat rise to the top. Skim and discard the fat then return the pan juices back in the roasting pan. Place the roasting pan on top of the stove over medium heat. Add the sherry and deglaze, scraping up the browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Season with salt and pepper, and serve with chicken.

Steps:
- Strip the leaves from a small bunch of parsley. Puree the chicken meat with the egg white, a pinch of salt, a dash of pepper and the parsley (put the puree through a sieve if you want it to be very smooth). Mince the truffle; mince a few chives and add them to the pureed meat.
- Transfer the filling into a pastry bag. Use a thin knife to cut into the largest side of each breast and cut from side to side to form a pocket, being careful not to cut through the meat. Insert the tip of the pastry bag into the pocket and stuff the meat, using your fingers to push the filling inside.
- Set the breasts skin side down in a pan with a drizzle of hot oil. Cook them for 10-12 minutes over moderate heat until the skin turns crisp. Then turn them and cook them for another 4-5 minutes.
- For the side dish: cut the radicchio heads into wedges, roast them briefly in a pan with a little hot oil, flavor them with 1/2 cup Marsala wine, cover the pan and leave it over low heat for about 10 minutes. Cut the stuffed breasts into slices and serve them with the radicchio and its slightly reduced Marsala sauce.
ROAST CAPON WITH FIG-AND-PANCETTA STUFFING
Larger than a chicken but smaller than a turkey, a capon (which is a young male chicken) roasts up rich and tender, and is simply divine with the bold fig-pancetta stuffing in this recipe. You can find capons fresh or frozen at butcher shops and many supermarkets.

Steps:
- Let capon stand at room temperature 1 hour. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add chopped onion, pancetta, and 1 teaspoon salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, until pancetta begins to render fat and onion is translucent, about 3 minutes. Add 1 cup broth and the figs to pan; bring to a boil. Remove from heat; let stand 10 minutes.
- Stir orange zest and juice, liqueur, and chopped sage into broth mixture. Tear bread into 1 1/2-inch pieces, and transfer to a large bowl. Pour broth mixture over bread, and stir until well combined. Fold in egg.
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Place orange wedges in a single layer in the center of a roasting pan; add onion wedges, sage sprig, and capon neck. Stir together 1 tablespoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper, and season body cavity of capon with half the mixture. Loosely pack body and neck cavities with stuffing. Place capon on top of orange mixture in pan. Rub remaining 2 tablespoons butter all over capon, and season with remaining salt-pepper mixture.
- Roast capon 45 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350°, and roast, basting every 15 minutes, until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a thigh reads 165°, 55 to 65 minutes more, depending on size of capon. (If skin becomes deep golden brown before capon is fully cooked, loosely tent with foil.)
- Transfer capon to a platter, and tent with foil to keep warm. Let rest at least 15 minutes before carving. Meanwhile, shred neck meat, and set aside. Discard oranges, onions, and sage from roasting pan. Tilt pan, and remove excess fat with a spoon. Whisk together 1/4 cup broth and the flour.
- Place pan on 2 burners over medium-high heat. Add remaining 1 1/4 cups broth, scraping up browned bits with a wooden spoon. Bring to a boil, whisk in flour mixture and boil 1 minute. Pour gravy through a fine sieve into a bowl, stir neck meat into gravy, and serve alongside capon and stuffing. Stuffing (without egg) can be refrigerated, covered, up to 1 day. Bring to room temperature before folding in egg and filling capon.

Steps:
- To prepare the stuffing, process the meat from the capon legs in a food processor, fitted with a steel chopping blade, until fairly smooth. Scrape it into a bowl. Add the veal and enough cream to bind. Stir in the spinach, grated cheese and salt, pepper and nutmeg to taste.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Butter a baking dish large enough to hold the breasts.
- Remove the fillets from the breast halves and flatten them slightly. Cut a pocket in each piece. Divide the stuffing between the breasts, then sew them together with thread or secure them with toothpicks or tiny skewers. Season the outsides with salt and pepper.
- Melt the butter and oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. When the butter has foamed, add the breasts and brown them on both sides. Transfer them to the baking dish and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, basting several times with the pan juices. Remove from the oven, cover loosely and let sit while finishing the risotto.
- While the capon is baking, melt three tablespoons of butter in a heavy casserole. When it has foamed, add the shallots and saute them over medium-high heat until soft. Add the rice, stir to coat with butter and cook for one minute. Pour in the wine and let it evaporate.
- Add the hot stock in ladlefuls, making sure each is absorbed before adding the next. Cook for about 20 minutes, or until al dente, stirring frequently. Add the peas and corn in the last five minutes. Before serving, stir in the remaining butter, cream, salt, pepper and grated cheese.
- While preparing the risotto, combine the chicken stock, Madeira and white wine in a saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat and reduce it by one-third. Add the heavy cream and reduce it further, until it thickens. Whisk in the butter and season with salt and pepper.
- To serve, remove the thread (or toothpicks or skewers) and slice the capon breasts. Place the slices alongside the risotto and spoon the sauce over the capon. Serve with fresh asparagus spears.

I've been saving this since 1997 from McCall's magazine. There are 9 Passover recipes in it. The menu they gave is Gefilte Fish (no recipe), Chicken Soup With Matzo Balls, Mixed Green Salad (no recipe), Stuffed Tarragon Roast Capon With Rich Pan Gravy, Matzo Walnut and Mushroom Stuffing, Roasted Tzimmes, Asparagus With Lemon and Mint, Chocolate-Almond Torte With Strawberry Sauce, and Assorted Macaroons. One of these days I may get this made but for safe keeping I'm saving it here.

SWEET STUFFED CAPON
Steps:
- 1. Preheat the oven to 450°F.
- 2. Remove the giblets from the capon. Rinse out the cavity with cold water and pat it dry. Season it with salt and pepper. Carefully separate the skin from the meat of the breast meat of the capon. Divide the butter in two equal parts, and carefully spread half of it on each side of the breast meat with your fingers, being careful not to break the skin. Carefully lay a bay leaf atop the butter on each side of the breast meat.
- 3. Coarsely chop the giblets. In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the pork, the breadcrumbs, the giblets, the chestnuts, the thyme, and the spices, working the mixture together with your fingers so it is homogeneous. As you work, the chestnuts will break into pieces - leave them in uneven pieces. Mix in the egg thoroughly with your hands, then season with salt and pepper. Sauté a teaspoon of the stuffing and taste it for seasoning. Adjust if necessary. Place as much of the stuffing as you can fit inside the capon, without packing it in too hard. Place any leftover stuffing in a baking dish.
- 4. Truss the capon and place it in a roasting pan. Add 1 cup water. Roast it in the center of the oven for 30 minutes, then turn it on one side. Roast it for 25 minutes, then turn it on the other side and roast it for 25 minutes. Finally, leaving it breast up, continue to roast it until the juices of the capon run golden and the stuffing inside the bird reaches a temperature of 160°F, a total of about 2 hours, checking it occasionally to be sure that it isn't browning too much, and adding more water if the pan is dry. Remove the capon from the oven and season it liberally with salt and pepper. Turn it on its breast at an angle, so the juices run into the breast meat, and let it rest for at least 20 minutes before carving.
- 5. Place the roasting pan over medium heat and add three-quarters cup water. Scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan and cook until reduced by about one-third. Taste for seasoning.
- 6. To serve the capon, present it first at the table, whole, then carve it. Remove the stuffing in one piece if possible and slice it.
