Roast Chicken My Way With Parsley Lemon Oil Recipes

DAD'S ROAST CHICKEN -- MY WAY WITH A PARSLEY LEMON JUICE OIL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degree F.
• Trim off any excess skin or fat from the chicken. Cut off and discard the wing tips. Place the chicken pieces in an 11 by 13-inch baking pan, or any pan that that they fit in without crowding. Season the chicken pieces generously with salt, pepper, olive oil, the herbs, and the lemon zest. Toss through all the seasonings and then arrange the chicken piece skin side up in the pan. You can season the chicken pieces and set them up in the roaster up to a day before you cook them. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate.
• Roast until the skin is nicely browned and there is no pink near the thigh bone and the juices run clear, about 35 to 40 minutes. Check both white meat and dark meat. If the white meat is done before the dark meat, take it out and set it on the serving plate until the dark meat is done.
• For the parsley drizzle, wash and dry the parsley. Remove the leaves from the stems and chop the leaves finely. Combine the remaining ingredients in a bowl and use immediately to garnish the roast chicken.

ROAST CHICKEN WITH ONIONS AND PARSLEY

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 500 degrees. Combine the lemon juice, 1/2 cup parsley, garlic and some salt and pepper, and rub this mixture all over the chicken. Put the chicken, breast side down, on a rack in a roasting pan and put the pan in the oven.
• While it's roasting, melt the butter or heat the olive oil in a medium skillet or saucepan over medium heat, then add the onions; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in the remaining parsley and the stock.
• After the chicken has roasted for about 20 minutes, spoon some of the onion mixture over it, then turn the bird breast side up. Top with more of the onion mixture, leaving some in the saucepan. Baste again after 10 minutes; at this point the breast should be beginning to brown (if it isn't, roast a few more minutes). Turn the heat down to 325 degrees, baste again, and roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh reads 155 to 165 degrees. Total roasting time will be about an hour and a half.
• Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, pour some or all of the pan juices into the saucepan with the remaining onion mixture and bring to a boil; reduce slightly if the mixture is thin. Carve the chicken and serve with the sauce.
