Gnocchi Roasted Garlic Chicken Recipes

ROASTED GNOCCHI AND VEGGIE CHEAT SHEET

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Add the gnocchi, green beans, pancetta, red pepper and onion to a large bowl and mix to combine. Spread the gnocchi mixture in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and sprinkle with the salt and pepper. Cut 4 tablespoons of the butter into pieces and top the gnocchi mixture with the butter pieces and sage leaves. Place on the middle rack and bake, stirring halfway through, until the gnocchi are tender, 16 to 18 minutes.
• Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and keep warm. When the gnocchi are tender, drizzle the mixture with the butter and gently stir to combine with a rubber spatula. Scoop the mixture into a large serving bowl and garnish with the Parmesan and basil.

ROASTED CHICKEN & GNOCCHI WITH LEMON AND ANCHOVY DRESSING

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 220ºC, gas mark 7. Put a large roasting tin in the oven to heat up. Thinly slice half the lemon. Squeeze 1 tbsp juice from the other half. Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil, tip in the gnocchi and cook for 3 minutes. Drain well. 2. Toss the chicken in a bowl with 2 tsp of oil and a little seasoning. Tip out into the roasting tin and bake for 5 minutes. Turn the chicken pieces in the tin, add the gnocchi, courgettes and lemon slices, and return to the oven for a further 25 minutes until there is no pink meat and the juices run clear. 3. Combine the remaining oil in a bowl with the anchovies, lemon juice, stock, parsley and garlic. Spoon over the chicken and gnocchi, mix well and serve. Cook's tip Anchovies offer a savoury note when used in meat dishes. Keep the remaining fillets, submerged in the oil they come with - just top up the jar with more if needed - then seal and store in the fridge for up to 2 days. The oil will solidify when cold, but return it to room temperature and it will be liquid again. The anchovy oil can be used for cooking too.

Return chicken to the skillet; sprinkle with Parmesan. Place into oven and bake until bubbly, about 10-12 minutes. Serve immediately.

• Meanwhile, mix balsamic vinegar, brown sugar, rosemary, red pepper flakes, and remaining lemon juice together in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until mixture bubbles, 5 to 7 minutes. Add tomatoes with some of their juice and continue to simmer while chicken finishes cooking.
• Melt butter in a pan over medium heat. Pan-fry gnocchi in the hot butter until golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes.

ROAST CHICKEN MARGHERITA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/gas 4. Scrub the potatoes, chop into even-sized chunks and cook in a large pan of boiling salted water for 15 minutes, or until tender. Halve the tomatoes and place in a large roasting tray. Break in the unpeeled garlic cloves. Pick a few pretty basil leaves for later, then stuff the rest of the bunch into the chicken cavity and add the chicken to the tray. Season with sea salt and black pepper, drizzle everything with 2 tablespoons each of red wine vinegar and olive oil, then toss well, rubbing all that flavour into the bird. Sit the chicken directly on the bars of the oven and put the tray of tomatoes beneath it. Roast for 1 hour 20 minutes, or until the chicken is golden and cooked through.
• Meanwhile, drain the potatoes, steam dry, mash, season and mix with the flour. As soon as cool enough to handle, divide and roll into 12 equal balls. Cut the smoked mozzarella into 12 chunks, poke one chunk into each ball, and seal. Place all the balls on an oiled 25cm x 35cm baking tray and roast at the bottom of the oven for the remaining 1 hour, or until golden. Remove the chicken to the tray of tomatoes and allow to rest, then squeeze a few garlic cloves out of their skins and mash into the tray juices. Sprinkle over the reserved basil leaves, then serve with the giant gnocchi and rocket, drizzling the garlicky juices over everything. Joy.

ROSEMARY-GARLIC ROASTED CHICKEN AND GNOCCHI

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 450 degrees. Pat the chicken dry, then transfer to a sheet pan and season all over with 1½ teaspoons salt and a few grinds of pepper. In a liquid measuring cup or small bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic and rosemary with a fork. Season generously with salt and pepper.
• Add the oil mixture and the gnocchi to the chicken. Toss with your hands to coat, massaging the garlic and rosemary into the chicken and gnocchi. Arrange the gnocchi in an even layer, and place the chicken skin side up on top of the gnocchi. Roast until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes.
• Transfer the chicken to plates and finely grate the zest of half the lemon over the chicken. Squeeze the juice of half the lemon onto the gnocchi (about 1½ tablespoons), then use a spoon to scrape up the browned bits on the sheet pan and toss the gnocchi in the lemon juice and pan drippings. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cut the remaining lemon into wedges. Eat the chicken with the gnocchi and a lemon wedge for squeezing over.
