Roasted Chicken With Jerusalem Artichoke And Lemon Recipes

ROAST CHICKEN WITH JERUSALEM ARTICHOKES AND LEMONS

Steps:

• Cook Jerusalem artichokes in a medium pot half-filled with water and half of the lemon juice for 10 minutes after the water boils. They should be tender but not too soft. Drain and cool.
• In a large bowl combine cooked Jerusalem artichokes, chicken pieces, shallots, garlic, tarragon, thyme, lemon slices, saffron, salt, peppercorns, pepper, oil and water.
• Mix everything with your hands (wear gloves if you don't like touching meat) until all ingredients are evenly coated with the marinade.
• Cover and let marinade overnight or at least for 2-3 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 220C/420F and roast the chicken for 30 minutes. Then cover with a lid or tin foil and cook for 15 minutes longer. (If your chicken is cooked but the skin remains a little too pale, turn your broiler on and broil for 1-2 minutes for a beautiful finish.)
• Remove from the oven and sprinkle with remaining lemon juice.

ROASTED CHICKEN AND JERUSALEM ARTICHOKES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 500 degrees. Season chicken with salt and pepper, and rub with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Place chicken in a shallow roasting pan; set aside. Zest the lemon into long strips, and squeeze juice from lemon into a small bowl. Set aside juice.
• In a medium bowl, combine lemon zest, garlic, Jerusalem artichokes, shallots, and thyme. Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, and arrange in pan around chicken. Roast until chicken is golden brown, about 40 minutes.
• Remove from oven. Add reserved lemon juice, wine, and olives; stir up any browned bits on the bottom of roasting pan with a wooden spoon. Return to oven, and continue cooking until liquid has thickened slightly, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from oven, and transfer to serving plates. Garnish with grated lemon zest.

ROASTED CHICKEN WITH JERUSALEM ARTICHOKE AND LEMON

Steps:

• Put the Jerusalem artichokes in a medium saucepan, cover with plenty of water, and add half the lemon juice. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer for 10 to 20 minutes, until tender but not soft. Drain and leave to cool. Place the Jerusalem artichokes and all the remaining ingredients, excluding the remaining lemon juice and half of the tarragon, in a large mixing bowl and use your hands to mix everything together well. Cover and leave to marinate in the fridge overnight, or for at least 2 hours. Preheat the oven to 475°F / 240°C. Arrange the chicken pieces, skin side up, in the center of a roasting pan and spread the remaining ingredients around the chicken. Roast for 30 minutes. Cover the pan with aluminum foil and cook for a further 15 minutes. At this point, the chicken should be completely cooked. Remove from the oven and add the reserved tarragon and lemon juice. Stir well, taste, and add more salt if needed. Serve at once.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Rub 3 tablespoons oil and the juice of 1 lemon over chicken; season generously with salt and pepper. Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet (preferably cast-iron) over medium-high heat. Cook chicken, breast side down, until golden, about 5 minutes.
• Set a large skillet (preferably cast-iron) on top of chicken, pressing to flatten. Transfer to oven, and roast until golden, about 30 minutes.
• Remove skillet; flip chicken. Return skillet onto chicken; roast until cooked through and an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of the thigh reaches 165 degrees, about 10 minutes.
• Transfer to a platter; let rest 10 minutes before carving. Drizzle with juice of remaining lemon, and sprinkle with red-pepper flakes. Scatter artichokes over top, and drizzle with oil from jar. Garnish with mint.
