2.In the oven with
the potatoes and mushrooms |
Wow I am a happy person tonight. I went to Whole Foods today and picked up a whole air dried chicken. The butcher halved it for me so I would have the bird flattened out. I sauteed it first with just salt, pepper, and some sweet paprika on it. I threw a few cloves into the pan with olive oil and put the bird in. I seared it on one side and then added about 1/2 cup of dry white wine and let it simmer for a minute or so then I put it into an oven at 500 degrees for about 15 minutes then turned it down to 350. I didn't cover it, just put the frying pan in with the bird. I added some whole mushrooms and some fingerling yukon gold potatoes and let it roast until the chicken reached 160 degrees at the thickest part.
I had some broccoli left, so I steamed it up and then sauteed it for a minute with some of the chicken juice, cooked up a small amount of fresh cranberries and served it up. WOWZA that chicken is so much juicier than any other chicken I have ever bought. The air drying holds the moisture into the chicken. It does cost about a dollar a pound more than a regular chicken, but it wasn't terrible. It cost about 8.00 and I will have at least 5 servings on this chicken. That's pretty reasonable. The flavor of the chicken from the paprika and the white wine is amazing.....do try it.
