The Chicken Recipes Kitchen (The home of delicious chicken recipes) invites you to try 30-minute roast chicken Recipe. Enjoy our collection of quick & easy recipes and learn how to make 30-minute roast chicken.

Who says you don't have time for a roast on a Tuesday night? This chicken will be on your table in half an hour.

Ingredients (serves 4)

20g (1 tbs) unsalted butter
20ml (1 tbs) olive oil
4 large chicken pieces on the bone (preferably Maryland)
2 large desiree or pontiac potatoes, peeled, cut into 2cm pieces
4 garlic cloves, peeled
6 eschallots (shallots)
1 lemon, halved
3 tbs chopped fresh tarragon
250ml (1 cup) dry white wine
250ml (1 cup) chicken stock
2 tbs Dijon mustard

Method

Preheat the oven to 220°C.

Place butter and oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add chicken and brown for 2 minutes each side until golden. Transfer to a medium baking dish (it is important that the pan is big enough so that there is plenty of room).

Add potatoes to the frying pan and cook until light golden. (They don't need to be cooked through yet.) Arrange them around the chicken with the garlic and eschallots. Squeeze lemon over the chicken and season. Sprinkle over half the tarragon and roast in the oven for 30 minutes. Transfer the chicken and vegetables to a serving platter.

Place the roasting pan on the stovetop over medium heat. Add the wine, stock and mustard and cook, stirring, for 3-4 minutes until reduced. Pour over the chicken and garnish with remaining tarragon. Serve with a green salad.

The Chicken Recipes Kitchen (The home of delicious chicken recipes) invites you to try Chicken with samfaina Recipe. Enjoy our collection of quick & easy recipes and learn how to make Chicken with samfaina.

A vibrant and robust Catalan classic. I've adapted this dish from a recipe by food writer Coleman Andrews. I prefer cooking the eggplant over an open flame to give it a touch of smokiness and depth; it can be done in the oven as well. The chicken is first roasted in the oven and then the samfaina is added to the pan to combine flavours. 

Ingredients

Chicken

1 free range chicken, cut in 4 pieces
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1 tsp chilli flakes
100mL extra virgin olive oil
Juice of 1 lemon
Extra virgin olive oil to finish
1 tbsp chopped parsley

Samfaina

2 medium eggplants
2-3 tbsp olive oil
1 large onion, thinly sliced
2 cloves of garlic, crushed
2 anchovy fillets
2 medium zucchini, cut into 1.5cm dice
3 small capsicums
(2 red, 1 green), roasted, peeled and cut into strips
4 tomatoes, seeded and roughly chopped

Method

For chicken: Preheat oven to 200C.

Season chicken pieces with salt, pepper and chilli and drizzle with extra virgin olive oil. Roast for 1 hour or until golden brown.

For samfaina: While chicken is roasting, make the samfaina. Turn eggplants frequently over an open gas flame until charred all over. Try not to break the skin as you turn them. Remove to a plate to cool slightly. Half eggplants, scoop out the flesh and cut into strips, avoiding charred skin.

Heat the oil in a heavy-based pan and add the onion and garlic. Cook for a few minutes until softened and golden. Add the anchovies, zucchini and capsicum, season with salt and pepper and cook over a low heat for 10 minutes, then add the tomatoes and cook a further 5 mins. Add eggplant, remove from heat and season to taste.

When the chicken is done, remove from oven and add the samfaina to the roasting pan with the chicken and stir to combine all the juices and flavours. Return pan to oven to cook a further 5 mins.
To serve

Drizzle with lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil and finish with chopped parsley.

Serve hot or warm.

Serves 4-6.

The Chicken Recipes Kitchen (The home of delicious chicken recipes) invites you to try Indian spiced chicken & roast squash Recipe. Enjoy our collection of quick & easy recipes and learn how to make Indian spiced chicken & roast squash. 
 Costs: £1.84
Takes: 1hr 30mins
Serves: 4

Ingredients

For the chicken
1.5kg whole organic free-range chicken
2 tbsp olive oil
1 large orange, cut in half
1 small onion, chopped
small handful fresh bay leaves
1 tsp garam masala

For the ginger and cumin roast squash
2-3 tbsp sunflower oil
1 red onion, cut into wedges
1 kg butternut squash, peeled, deseeded, cut into wedges
2.5cm fresh ginger
½ tsp dried chilli flakes
2 tsp ground coriander
2 tsp cumin seeds
4 garlic cloves, unpeeled

Mint and lime raita
150ml natural yoghurt
small handful fresh mint leaves, chopped
zest of ½ a lime

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 200°C/fan180°C/gas 6. Season the chicken's cavity with salt and pepper and place in a large roasting tin. Cut one orange half into wedges and place some inside the cavity and some around the chicken. Place the onion wedges and the bay leaves in the chicken cavity. Tie the legs together with string. Rub all over with the olive oil, season and scatter with garam masala. Squeeze the other orange half into the bottom of the roasting tin, add 150ml hot water, cover with foil and roast for 45 minutes.

Meanwhile, toss the red onion wedges and squash with the sunflower oil and then scatter with the ginger, spices and garlic and mix together well so it is all coated in the spicy mix. Tip into a very large roasting tin (large enough so the vegetables can sit happily in one layer without being piled up so that it roasts evenly and doesn't stew). Place in the oven and roast for 40-45 minutes or until tender and lightly browned around the edges.

Remove the foil from the chicken and roast for a further 20-30 minutes or until the skin is golden and the juices from the thigh run clear when pierced with a skewer.

For the raita, mix the yoghurt with the chopped mint and lime zest and place in a small serving bowl.

Serve the chicken sliced with the roasted squash and the mint raita on the side and pour the chicken roasting juices over the top as an instant gravy.

The Chicken Recipes Kitchen (The home of delicious chicken recipes) invites you to try Mustard-stuffed chicken Recipe. Enjoy our collection of quick & easy recipes and learn how to make Mustard-stuffed chicken.

Easy
Serves 4
Prep 10 mins
Cook 20 mins

Ingredients

125g ball mozzarella , torn into small pieces
50g strong cheddar , grated
1 tbsp wholegrain mustard
4 skinless boneless chicken breast fillets
8 smoked streaky bacon rashers

Method

Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Mix the cheeses and mustard together. Cut a slit into the side of each chicken breast, then stuff with the mustard mixture. Wrap each stuffed chicken breast with 2 bacon rashers - not too tightly, but enough to hold the chicken together. Season, place on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 mins.

Try

Tip

If you want to use less bacon, stretch out four rashers using the back of a knife to make each one longer and thinner. Wrap just one around each chicken breast as before.

Make it veggie

Cheesy baked mushrooms: Heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Mix the mozzarella and cheddar with 1 tbsp pesto, then spoon into the hollows of 4 portobello mushrooms. Place on a baking tray and roast for 15 mins or until the mushrooms are softened and the cheese is bubbling.

Inactive 20 min
Cook 1 hr 30 min

Yield: 8 servings
Level: Intermediate

Ingredients

1 (5 to 6 pound) roasting chicken
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 large bunch fresh thyme, plus 20 sprigs
1 lemon, halved
1 head garlic, cut in half crosswise
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter, melted
1 large yellow onion, thickly sliced
4 carrots cut into 2-inch chunks
1 bulb of fennel, tops removed, and cut into wedges
Olive oil

Directions

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.

Remove the chicken giblets. Rinse the chicken inside and out. Remove any excess fat and leftover pin feathers and pat the outside dry. Liberally salt and pepper the inside of the chicken. Stuff the cavity with the bunch of thyme, both halves of lemon, and all the garlic. Brush the outside of the chicken with the butter and sprinkle again with salt and pepper. Tie the legs together with kitchen string and tuck the wing tips under the body of the chicken. Place the onions, carrots, and fennel in a roasting pan. Toss with salt, pepper, 20 sprigs of thyme, and olive oil. Spread around the bottom of the roasting pan and place the chicken on top.

Roast the chicken for 1 1/2 hours, or until the juices run clear when you cut between a leg and thigh. Remove the chicken and vegetables to a platter and cover with aluminum foil for about 20 minutes. Slice the chicken onto a platter and serve it with the vegetables.
