JACQUES PEPIN'S FLATBREAD

Steps:

• Dump everything (except the 2 tablespoons water) into a bowl and "stir it into a gooey stuff" as Jacques says. The dough will indeed be very wet, gooey, sticky. Stir in any optional ingredients.
• Heat a non-stick 10" skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Pour about a tablespoon of olive oil into the pan and then pour in the dough.
• Spread into one flat layer with a spoon or spatula. (A little oil on the spoon or spatula helps keep the dough from sticking to it.)
• Add a tablespoon or two of water around the outside of the dough where it meets the pan; the object is to create steam to help cook the bread. Cover the pan with a lid and cook 8-10 minutes. Peek at the bottom of the bread about half way through the first 8-10 minutes just to make sure the bottom isn't burning. You want good color, but not charcoal! Adjust the temperature accordingly.
• After 8-10 minute flip the bread and re-cover the pan so that it cooks on the other side, 5 minutes.
• It tastes best if eaten while warm.

JACQUES PEPIN'S ARTISIAN BREAD IN A PAN RECIPE - (3.8/5)

Steps:

• Stir it up until it is thoroughly mixed, then let it sit, uncovered, at room temperature for about an hour and a half. When you check back, the dough should have puffed up a little bit. Knock it down by mixing it up again for a moment, you don't have to do too much. Then cover it and put it in the refrigerator overnight (10-12 hours). The next day, preheat your oven to 450 degrees. When it is at temperature, take the dough out of the fridge and take the cover off (it should have risen again overnight), and put it straight into the oven. Then walk away for about 40 minutes. After 40 minutes, take the pot out of the oven. You will see that you have a perfect crust poking out from the pot. Let it sit and cook for a few minutes before turning it out on a cutting board.

JACQUES PEPIN'S BASIC ROAST CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Sprinkle the chicken inside and out with the salt and pepper and fold the wings akimbo to position them closer to the body. Place the chicken on its side in an oven-safe skillet, preferably cast-iron.
• Place the chicken in the skillet in the oven and cook for 20 minutes, then turn the chicken over and cook another 20 minutes. (By cooking the chicken on its sides, the juices stay in the breast and, since only the back is exposed, the chicken does not need constant basting.) Finally, turn the chicken onto its back, baste it with the cooking juices and continue to cook 10 minutes. It should be golden in color.
• When the chicken is cooked, cut it into pieces and serve, with the drippings on the side.
