STUFFED LEMON THYME CHICKEN
I was looking for a nice light summertime dish and this came to mind. I combined two of my greatest loves, artichoke hearts and roasted red bell peppers, and made them into this fantastic Mediterranean inspired dish. The chicken itself has so much flavor from the marinade and the stuffing is delicious. I kept it simple so all the flavors would shine. Try serving it over an herb cous cous or even a spicy cous cous. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Butterfly chicken breasts if not already done so.
- Combine olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, and thyme and whisk.
- Place marinade and chicken breasts in a plastic bag and allow to marinate for at least half an hour.
- While chicken is marinating drain artichoke hearts (reserve marinade) and roasted bell peppers and roughly chop them.
- Mince the garlic.
- Add stuffing's olive oil to a sauté pan and heat over medium high heat, before pan gets to hot add garlic. Do not brown garlic. Sauté for a minute and then add the artichoke hearts.
- Cook for two minutes and then add the roasted red bell peppers and cook for an additional two minutes.
- Remove from heat, but while still warm incorporate the feta cheese.
- Season with salt and pepper, but be cautious with salt because feta cheese is extremely salty.
- Set aside and allow to cool.
- Next make the sauce by combining the sour cream, artichoke marinade, chives, and s&p. Set aside.
- Preheat grill to medium high heat once chicken is done marinating.
- Remove chicken from marinade and wipe off any excess marinade.
- Stuff the chicken breasts with stuffing so that they are not overflowing and secure with butcher's twine so that stuffing will not fall out on grill.
- Grill for 15 minutes, time may vary on size of chicken breasts and grill.
- Once done remove from grill and use scissors or knife to cut off the twine.
- Serve immediately and top with sour cream sauce if desired.

ROASTED CHICKEN WITH LEMON, GARLIC, AND THYME
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Rinse the chicken and pat it dry.
- In a small bowl, make a compound butter by combining the softened butter, minced thyme, garlic cloves, lemon zest, salt, and pepper.
- Season the cavity of the chicken generously with salt, and pepper. Stuff the cavity with the lemon quarters, a handful of fresh thyme leaves, and the quartered onion. Place the carrot, celery and onion in the bottom of a roasting pan and place the chicken on top of the vegetables. Cross the legs and tie with kitchen twine.
- Gently lift the skin away from the chicken and spread 2 tablespoons of the softened butter mixture underneath the skin, distributing it evenly. Spread the remaining butter over the entire surface of the chicken and season generously with salt, and pepper.
- Place the chicken in the oven and roast for 20 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 375 degrees F and roast the chicken until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the inner thigh, not touching the bone registers 160 to 165 degrees F, about 45 minutes. Transfer the chicken and vegetables to a cutting board to rest for about 15 minutes. Tent the chicken with aluminum foil to keep warm.
- Pour the pan juices into a large glass measuring cup. Spoon the fat off the top. Add the chicken broth to the roasting pan and place over high heat. Bring to boil, scraping up any browned bits. Return the pan juices to the pan. Whisk the flour into the broth mixture and bring to a boil until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Season the sauce to taste with salt, and pepper. Serve alongside the roast chicken.
- Roasted Chicken Variations:
- Honey-Glazed Chicken: Season the butter with 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg, and 2 tablespoons honey.
- Soy-Ginger Chicken: Season the butter with 1 tablespoon minced garlic, 2 teaspoons fresh ginger, and 2 teaspoons soy sauce.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. First, make the stuffing. Finely chop the soaked porcini and set aside. Heat the oil in a shallow pan, then gently cook the onion for 5 mins, stirring occasionally. Add the porcini, button mushrooms and thyme leaves, season, turn the heat up, then cook for another 5 mins until the mushrooms have softened.
- Add the wine to the pan, then reduce fiercely until nearly dry. Add 50ml of the porcini soaking liquid, then continue to reduce for a couple of mins until you have a syrupy sauce. Allow to cool for a couple of mins, then carefully spoon between the skin and the flesh of the chicken breasts. Can be made a day ahead and chilled, or frozen for 1 month. Defrost in fridge before cooking. Season, place on a baking tray, skin-side up, then cook in the oven for 20 mins, until the chicken is cooked through and golden.
- While the chicken is cooking, make the risotto. Heat the butter and olive oil in a saucepan. Add the celery and onion, then cook over a medium heat for 5 mins until softened. Add the rice, coat it well in the oil, then cook for 1 min. Gradually add the stock a ladleful at a time, stirring with each addition until absorbed. Continue adding the stock and stirring until the risotto is oozing and thick - about 20 mins. Stir in the thyme, lemon juice, zest and Parmesan.
- When the chicken is cooked through and golden, remove from the oven. Spoon the risotto onto serving plates, sprinkle with the extra Parmesan and top with a chicken breast. Spoon over the juices from the chicken pan, then serve immediately.

Steps:
- Let the butter and chicken stand at room temperature for 3o minutes or so.
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Remove and discard any giblets, excess fat, and plastic pop-up timer, if there is one.
- To prevent burning, tuck the chicken's wing tips under the body.
- Season the cavity of the chicken, liberally, with salt and pepper.
- Roll the lemon back and forth on the counter to get the juices going. Pierce the entire surface of the lemon with the fork.
- Smash up the garlic cloves- the side of a knife does this well.
- Insert lemon, garlic and thyme into the cavity of the bird.
- Arrange the onion slices in the center of a heavy-duty roasting pan. (Arranging the onions in overlapping rows works great) Place the chicken on top with the breast side up. Tie the chicken legs together with kitchen twine.
- Spread the softened butter over the entire surface of the chicken. Season generously with salt and pepper.
- Roast the chicken until skin is crisp and the skin is a nice golden brown. The juices should run clear when the chicken is pierced with a fork- about 1 1/2 hours. The chicken will be cooked perfectly when an instant-read thermometer (inserted into the breast- then thigh) will read 165 degrees.
- Garnish with sprigs of thyme.

- Preheat the oven to 200C. Wash the chicken under cold running water, trim any pockets of fat, then pat dry with paper towel and set aside.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring often, for 5 to 6 minutes or until softened. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute or until aromatic. Transfer to a bowl. Add the breadcrumbs, parsley, lemon zest, thyme, salt and pepper and mix until well combined. Spoon into the chicken cavity, stuffing it firmly.
- Pull the skin on either side of the cavity together, then secure by threading a small, thin metal skewer through the skin several times. Alternatively, use a trussing needle and kitchen string to sew the skin closed. Rub the chicken all over with the remaining olive oil, then season well with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Truss the legs with kitchen string.
- Put the chicken in a small flameproof roasting pan and roast for 15 minutes. Reduce the heat to 180C and roast for another 45 minutes or until the juices run clear when the chicken is pierced through the thickest part (between the thigh and body). Transfer to a warmed plate, cover loosely with foil and set aside.
