Delicious Roast Chicken with Fine Herbs

O Que Você Precisa Saber

- The marinade applied to the internal cavity and under the skin ensures that the seasonings penetrate the entire length of the meat. - The first 30 minutes under aluminum foil retain steam and start uniform cooking without drying out the breast. - The final 40 minutes uncovered at 200°C caramelize the onions and brown the skin until it reaches uniform crispness.

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

Chef Tips

- Seque a pele do frango com papel-toalha antes de espalhar a pasta de azeite e ervas para garantir melhor aderência e crocância. - Descole cuidadosamente a pele do peito com a ponta dos dedos e introduza parte do tempero de ervas diretamente na carne. - Deixe a ave descansar por 10 minutos sobre a tábua antes de fatiar para que os sucos internos se redistribuam pela carne.

Variations

- Acomode batatas médias cortadas ao meio ao lado das cebolas na assadeira para assar no caldo aromático do frango. - Insira meio limão furado e dois ramos inteiros de alecrim no interior da cavidade da ave antes de costurar ou amarrar. - Pincele uma colher de mel misturada ao caldo do fundo da forma nos últimos 10 minutos de forno para brilho caramelizado.

Substitutions

- Fine fresh herbs (rosemary, thyme, and sage) can be replaced by two tablespoons of dried herbs. - Olive oil can be replaced with softened butter at room temperature with salt and lemon zest. - Tahiti lime can be replaced by Sicilian lemon or two tablespoons of white wine vinegar.

How to Store

Store the sliced roast chicken in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in the oven at 180°C covered with aluminum foil, or shred leftovers to use in pot pies, salpicão, or risottos.

Can You Freeze It?

Freeze the shredded meat or pieces of the Roast Chicken wrapped in freezer-safe bags for up to 3 months. To maintain quality, defrost in the refrigerator and heat in a skillet with a knob of butter or in the oven.

What to Serve With

Combines perfectly with broccoli rice, crispy buttered cassava farofa, and creamy mashed potatoes. The roasted onions themselves that accompany the bottom of the roasting pan serve as a juicy garnish.

Frequently Asked Questions

Como ter certeza de que o frango assou completamente por dentro?

Espete a coxa na parte mais espessa junto ao osso; o líquido expelido deve ser totalmente translúcido, sem traços rosados.

Why is it important to respect the 10-minute rest before cutting?

Cutting the bird as soon as it comes out of the oven makes the liquids boil out of the meat, leaving the breast dry and without juiciness.

Can I use chicken pieces like thighs and drumsticks instead of the whole chicken?

Yes, use the same marinade on 1.5 kg of chicken thigh and drumstick pieces, reducing the total oven time to about 50 minutes.

How to prevent the chicken breast from baking too fast and drying out?

Place onion slices under the breast or apply a generous layer of olive oil with butter under the skin before baking.
