Thyme Chestnut Roast Potatoes Recipes

THYME ROASTED POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F and place a backing pan on rack in lower third.
• Toss together all ingredients in a bowl; season with salt and pepper.
• Carefully transfer potatoes to hot pan, shaking pan to spread potatoes into a single layer.
• Roast potatoes, stirring occasionally, until tender and crispy (about 35 minutes).

THYME & CHESTNUT ROAST POTATOES

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a large pan and cover with cold salted water. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 5 mins until just tender. Drain.
• Put the oil in a large roasting tin, then transfer the tin to the oven with the turkey for 10 mins. Remove the tin from the oven and carefully tip in the potatoes and thyme, turning to coat in the hot oil. When the turkey is cooked through, turn the oven up to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and roast the potatoes for 40 mins. Turn the potatoes over and roast for 10-15 mins more until golden all over. Sprinkle over the chestnuts and roast for a final 10 mins until the chestnuts are heated through.

SUNNY'S ROASTED ROSEMARY AND THYME POTATOES

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
• Cut the potatoes in quarters lengthwise. Using a paring knife and plenty of patience, cut each quarter into 1 or 2 torpedo- or oval-shaped pieces. Place in a large bowl of cold water while you finish the rest.
• Add the potatoes to the boiling water and blanch for just under 4 minutes. (This really depends on the size of your potatoes, but be sure to not cook them for potato salad; this is just to get them slightly tender--you shouldn't be able to get a fork through them. The oven will do the rest.) Remove the potatoes from the water to a paper towel-lined plate until slightly cooled.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Pour the potatoes into a large bowl and drizzle over enough olive oil to coat all sides. On a large baking sheet with sides, add the thyme and rosemary (whole) to make a bed of sorts. Pour out the potatoes onto the sheet and space them evenly so the air can circulate as they roast. Season the entire sheet with a pinch of salt.
• Roast the potatoes until golden brown on the edges and crisp, 25 to 30 minutes.

RED POTATOES AND THYME

Steps:

• In a deep, medium skillet, bring water to a boil. Add quartered potatoes and simmer 12 minutes, until fork tender. Begin other recipes in your menu.
• Drain potatoes in a colander set over a pot. Allow the stock to cool and refrigerate for another use. Return the pan you cooked the potatoes in to heat over medium high. Add extra-virgin olive oil and butter, then, when butter melts add potatoes. Season potatoes with salt, pepper and chopped thyme. Coat and brown the potatoes, turning only occasionally, 7 or 8 minutes.

GARLIC THYME POTATOES

Steps:

• Peel a narrow strip of skin around the center of each potato. Place potatoes in a steamer basket; place in a saucepan over 1 in. of water. Bring to a boil. Cover and steam for 20-30 minutes or until tender. In a serving bowl, combine the remaining ingredients. Add potatoes and toss gently to coat.

ROASTED POTATOES WITH FIGS AND THYME

Steps:

• Place figs in a bowl, cover with hot black tea and let cool. Cover and refrigerate for 4 to 6 hours or overnight, depending on initial softness of figs.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Wash potatoes well and trim any bad parts. Separate garlic head into individual cloves but do not remove outer skin.
• Drain figs. In a bowl, combine garlic, thyme, figs, potatoes and olive oil; toss. Place on roasting pan and bake until potatoes are tender enough to pierce with a fork, about 30 minutes. Remove and season immediately with salt and pepper. Serve. Diners may remove skin from garlic at the table and eat along with the potatoes, if they wish.

THYME-ROASTED POTATOES WITH BALSAMIC VINEGAR

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Place potatoes in large bowl. Generously spray potatoes with nonstick spray. Toss to coat. Sprinkle with 3 tablespoons thyme and garlic salt. Toss to coat. Spray large rimmed baking sheet with nonstick spray. Arrange potatoes, cut side down, on sheet. Roast potatoes until tender and golden brown, turning every 15 minutes and roasting about 45 minutes total.
• Meanwhile, stir vinegar and sugar in heavy small saucepan over high heat until sugar dissolves. Boil until liquid is reduced to 2/3 cup, about 10 minutes. Mix in remaining 1 tablespoon thyme.
• Transfer potatoes to plates. Drizzle some balsamic syrup over potatoes.

THYME-ROASTED CHICKEN WITH POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. On a large rimmed baking sheet, toss the potatoes with 2 tablespoons oil, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
• To make the seasoning: in a small bowl, combine thyme leaves with 1/4 teaspoon pepper and 2 teaspoons salt; set aside.
• Working from neck end of chickens, use your fingers to gently separate skin from flesh, including thigh and leg areas. Distribute thyme mixture under skin of each chicken, dividing evenly; season cavities generously with salt and pepper. Tuck wings under breasts. Using kitchen twine, tie legs together securely on top of chickens. Besides helping them cook evenly and stay moist, this will also help preserve their shape.
• Nestle chickens, breast sides up, among potatoes; rub chickens with remaining tablespoon oil, and season each with salt and pepper.
• Roast, tossing potatoes occasionally and brushing chicken with pan juices, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in thickest part of thigh (avoiding bone) registers 165 degrees. about 1 hour.
• Let chickens rest in a warm spot 10 minutes before serving.
