Roast Chicken With Herbed Mushrooms Recipes

HERBED ROASTED MUSHROOMS WITH FRIED EGG

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 450 degrees F and arrange a rack in the middle.
• Combine mushrooms, 3 tablespoons oil, and rosemary on a baking sheet, season with salt and freshly ground black pepper and toss to coat. Place in oven and roast until mushrooms are shrunken, and browned about, 20 minutes. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of the balsamic and toss to coat. Scatter half of the Parmesan on the pizza. Discard rosemary and arrange mushrooms on top. Distribute ricotta across top and drizzle with remaining Parmesan and a little extra olive oil.
• Bake until crust is browned, cheese is melted, about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, heat a small frying pan medium heat, and add remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. When oil shimmers, add eggs and fry until set, bubbly and brown on the edges, and the pan is almost dry. Carefully add remaining 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar and cook until vinegar is reduced and syrupy. Place egg on top of pizza, drizzle balsamic reduction over pizza, and serve.

ROAST CHICKEN WITH WILD MUSHROOMS & GARLIC BUTTER

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Mix together the garlic, butter, lemon zest and juice, and half the thyme. Season well.
• Gently separate the skin from the chicken breast by easing your fingers between the two, then push as much butter mixture under the skin as possible. Rub whatever is left into the creases between the thighs and the breast.
• Heat the oil in a large casserole dish that will fit the chicken. Add the onions, mushrooms and bay leaves, cook over a medium heat for a few mins.
• Rub the chicken with the remaining thyme leaves and some salt and pepper. Pour the wine and 20ml warm water into the cavity of the chicken and place in the dish. Cook in the oven for 1 hr 40 mins; it will brown and steam at the same time and the juices will rehydrate the mushrooms.
• Remove from the oven and drain any liquid from inside the chicken back into the dish. Place the chicken on a board to rest. Meanwhile, bring the juices to the boil, season to taste and stir in the chopped parsley. Serve the chicken with the mushrooms, onions and pan juices.

GORDON RAMSAY'S ROASTED CHICKEN WITH HERB GNOCCHI AND MUSHROOMS.

Steps:

• 3 lbs large Idaho potatoes, a scant 2/3 cup (not quite 2/3 cup) of pasta flour, 2 eggs,3/4 to 1 cup of soft blue cheese,3 tbsp chopped mixed herbs (chervil, parsley, chives, basil),Salt and pepper,olive oil, to drizzle and fry.
• 1 tbsp butter Bake the potatoes in the oven until the skin is crisp on the outside and the potato is soft and fluffy in the middle. Scoop out the flesh then pass through a mouli until completely smooth and there are no lumps (a food mill would also work for this).

• Scoop the mixture into a bowl and cool until firm. Shape the mixture into long sausages, about 1.5cm thick on a lightly floured surface. Cut into 2-3 cm lengths with the back of a knife so the ends are blunted a little.
• Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil. Add the gnocchi. As soon as they float to the surface, give them another 30 seconds then fish out with a slotted spoon into a bowl of ice-cold water. Repeat with the rest. Drain then dry completely with kitchen paper or in a clean tea towel. Toss in a little olive oil.
• Heat some oil and the butter in a frying pan and brown the blanched gnocchi for a few minutes, turning them, until nicely caramelized all over.
