Sarasotas Roasted Whole Chicken With A White Wine Sauce Recipes

GARLIC ROAST CHICKEN WITH WHITE WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 375 F (190 C).
• Pat the chicken dry inside and outside. Place lemon halves and bay leaves in the chicken cavity. Tie the legs together with kitchen string.
• In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, rosemary, and salt. Rub mixture over the entire chicken.
• Place the chicken in a large baking dish. Set aside.
• Bring the chicken stock, white wine and garlic cloves to a simmer in a medium saucepan. Pour the liquid and garlic cloves into the baking dish around the chicken. Cover baking dish with foil, crimping the edges tightly around the dish so that no steam can escape. Roast for 1 hour 20 minutes.
• After this time, remove chicken from oven and remove the foil. Place chicken back in the oven, and roast for another 20 minutes or until the chicken is golden brown.
• Remove chicken from the oven and loosely cover it in tinfoil. Let it rest for about 15 minutes.
• Spoon the sauce from the baking dish into a saucepan, and keep it warm. You can strain some of the garlic cloves into the sauce, or just keep the cloves whole.
• Serve chicken with garlic sauce on the side. Place a few garlic cloves on each plate so that guests can squeeze garlic onto the chicken if they wish.

SARASOTA'S ROASTED WHOLE CHICKEN WITH A WHITE WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• Prepare -- Clean the chicken, rinse and pat dry. Add 1/2 the salt and pepper into the cavity along with the orange, lemon, onion and garlic.
• Mix the olive oil, butter, remaining salt and pepper along with the parsley and cayenne pepper. Brush this all over the chicken.
• I tuck the wings under the chicken and set in a roasting pan on my cut thick onion slices, or celery, or even carrots. If you don't want to use a natural vegetable rack you can use just of baking rack but I just love the flavor the vegetables give the gravy. I do not like to truss or tie my legs together. To me they get done more evenly when not tied.
• Time to bake -- Now I like to add 1 cup chicken broth or you can just use water in the bottom of the pan. It gives a little moisture along with the dripping from the chicken. Heat the oven to 450 degrees and cook the chicken uncovered for about 20 minutes. Reduce to 375 and cook for another 40-60 minutes depending on the size of your chicken. I always remove when the internal temperature reaches 170-175 and the juices will run clear when you stick a knife or fork in the thigh.
• Resting -- Make sure you remove from the pan to a plate and cover with foil. Let rest at least 15 minutes. Temperature will rise to 180 easily.
• Gravy -- First remove most of the grease from the drippings, just use a tablespoon, there shouldn't be too much. Then put the pan on the stove top and on medium heat, deglaze the pan with white wine about 1 cup and scrape up all the drippings. At this point, I still keep all the vegetables I used as the rack still in the pan. Then I add 2 cups of chicken broth and let it reduce 5 or so minutes as the chicken continues to rest.
• I finish by adding a teaspoon of butter and then thickening just a bit with corn starch mixed with just a little water (a slurry) just lightly, I don't want it too thick, and then strain the gravy. I then add a little parsley right at the end (optional). And drizzle over the cut up roasted chicken. It is perfection.

WINE ROASTED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Season the flour with salt and pepper, then mix together in a shallow bowl. Lightly dust both sides of the chicken with the flour, shaking off any excess.
• Add the olive oil to a skillet and heat over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the chicken skin-side down and cook until the skin is golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Flip the chicken and cook on the other side until golden brown, about 4 more minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
• Add the mushrooms, shallot and fennel to the skillet and cook just until beginning to soften, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of the excess dredging flour and stir well. Add the white wine, chicken broth, garlic, rosemary, thyme and lemon juice, then bring to a simmer, scraping the bottom of the skillet. Add the chicken back to the skillet skin-side up and place in the oven. Cook until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes.
• Serve with Pistachio Pesto Pasta if desired and garnish with basil leaves, lemon zest and lemon slices.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to the package directions.
• While the pasta is cooking, make the pistachio pesto. Combine the pistachios, basil, olive oil, Parmesan, garlic, lemon zest and juice and some salt and pepper in a food processor and process until well combined.
• Reserve 1 cup of the pasta water and drain the pasta. Toss the pasta with the pistachio sauce, thinning with the pasta water for the desired consistency if necessary. Serve with more Parmesan and basil leaves.

SKILLET CHICKEN THIGHS WITH WHITE WINE-BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Sprinkle them on both sides with 1 1/2 teaspoons each salt and pepper.
• Heat a large oven-proof skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium-high heat. Add the chicken thighs to the skillet skin-side down and cook, moving them around once or twice to ensure even browning, until the skin is very golden brown, 11 to 12 minutes.
• Turn off the heat. Grasp a wad of paper towels with tongs and mop up excess fat in the bottom of the skillet-this will prevent the grease from spattering all over your oven; carefully discard the paper towel. Repeat several times until there's only a thin film of oil over the bottom of the skillet.
• Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast until the chicken is almost cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Flip the thighs so they are skin side up, then continue roasting until no longer pink near the bone, another 6 minutes. Remove the skillet from the oven and transfer the chicken thighs to a plate, skin side up. Wipe out the skillet and set aside.
• Meanwhile, start your sauce. Combine the vinegar, wine, shallots, lemon juice and bay leaves in a heavy 2-quart saucepan. Simmer over medium heat until the mixture is reduced to a wet paste, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the cream and continue to simmer until the mixture is reduced to about 2 tablespoons.
• Reduce the heat to low and remove the bay leaves. Add a few chunks of the butter and whisk constantly until melted, then add a few more chunks and whisk again until melted. Continue adding and whisking the butter, which should melt into a creamy emulsion, until all the butter is incorporated, about 4 minutes. Do not let the sauce go over 130 degrees F or it will separate. If the sauce starts to break, remove from the heat, add 2 ice cubes and whisk until it cools down and comes back together.
• Season the sauce with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a pinch of pepper. Transfer it to the cast iron skillet, nestle the chicken on top and sprinkle the whole dish with chives. Serve immediately.

ROTISSERIE CHICKEN WITH SATAY SAUCE

Steps:

• Cook the olive oil, sesame oil, red onion, garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes in a small, heavy-bottomed pot on medium heat until the onion is transparent, 10 to 15 minutes. Whisk in the vinegar, sugar, soy sauce, peanut butter, ketchup, sherry, and lime juice; cook for 1 more minute. Cool.
• Using a sharp knife, carefully remove the entire breast of the rotisserie chicken and slice it diagonally in 1/2-inch-thick slices. Skewer the chicken slices with wooden sticks and serve with the sauce. Reserve the remaining chicken.

Add the rest of the bay leaves and the lemon to the cavity, then smear the rest of the butter all over the bird. Place in a roasting tin and cook for 45 mins. Add the garlic to the pan, baste the chicken with the buttery juices and bake in the oven for 45 mins more.
• Meanwhile, lay baguette slices on a tray and drizzle with a little oil. Bake for 20 mins until golden, then remove from the oven. When the chicken is cooked, remove from the oven and leave to rest with the soft garlic.
• For the gravy, pour the fat out of the tin, place the tin on the heat and splash in the wine and any juices from the chicken. Bubble and scrape up any of the sticky bits, then drain into a jug. Serve the chicken with the croutons, the jug of gravy and the garlic for squeezing over.
