Hot Tub Chicken With Roasted Fennel And Sweet Potato Recipes

SHEET-PAN CHICKEN WITH SWEET POTATOES AND FENNEL

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. In a large bowl, toss chicken with 2 tablespoons oil. Season with salt and arrange on a large rimmed baking sheet, skin-side up.
• In the same bowl, toss potatoes and fennel with 2 tablespoons oil. Season with salt and arrange in an even layer around the chicken.
• Roast until chicken and potatoes are a deep golden brown and fennel is starting to caramelize at the edges, about 35 to 45 minutes.
• As chicken cooks, combine vinegar, lemon zest and juice, mustard, garlic and 1 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Whisk in remaining 1/4 cup olive oil in a thin stream and stir in pecorino. Season with salt and pepper.
• Transfer the chicken to a cutting board to rest. Toss the fennel fronds and parsley with the roasted vegetables.
• To serve, cut the chicken off the bone and slice. Divide chicken and vegetables among plates. Serve with a handful of leafy greens if you like, and spoon the pecorino vinaigrette over everything.

BAKED CHICKEN, POTATOES, AND FENNEL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a deep 9-by-13-inch baking dish, toss potatoes with fennel (bulb and stalk), garlic, and 4 teaspoons oil. Season generously with salt and pepper. Bake, tossing occasionally, until potato edges are browned, 35 to 45 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, warm remaining teaspoon oil. Season chicken with salt and pepper; cook, starting with skin side down, until browned on both sides, 6 to 10 minutes. Remove chicken.
• Wipe skillet with a paper towel; add broth, and bring to a boil. Add chicken and hot broth to potato mixture in baking dish; bake until chicken is no longer pink and an instant-read thermometer registers 165 degrees, 20 to 25 minutes. Garnish with fronds.

REUBEN LOADED BAKED POTATO

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Prick the potato skins all over. Bake the potatoes in aluminum foil wrappers until tender, for 45 minutes.
• Remove potatoes from the oven and preheat the broiler. Remove the aluminum foil and slice each potato down the middle, opening slightly. Place on a baking sheet. With a fork scrape out flesh, setting aside for another use. Sprinkle shells with salt and pepper. Divide the pastrami among the halves, then top each with sauerkraut and a slice of cheese. Place the potatoes under the broiler until bubbling and golden, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Top each half with a dollop of 18,000 Island Dressing, pickled peppers and chives. Serve immediately.
• Combine the sour cream, ketchup, jalapenos, pickles, Dijon, garlic and some salt in a bowl. Stir, taste and adjust seasonings if necessary.

ROASTED-POTATO FENNEL SOUP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• In a large bowl, toss the potatoes with 1/4 cup olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 30 minutes, until cooked through.
• Saute the onions and fennel with 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large stockpot on medium heat until translucent, 10 to 15 minutes. Add the roasted potatoes (including the scrapings from the pan) and the chicken stock. Cover and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer uncovered for 1 hour, until all of the vegetables are very soft. Add the heavy cream and allow the soup to cool slightly. Pass the soup through the largest disk of a food mill or chop coarsely in batches in a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Taste for salt and pepper. Reheat and serve hot.

ONE-PAN ROASTED CHICKEN WITH POTATOES AND FENNEL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°.
• Slice the potatoes in half, then chop them into 1/2-inch thick pieces.
• Slice the fennel into 1-inch chunks about 1/2 an inch thick.
• Dice the onion.
• In a large bowl, combine everything, stirring until the meat and veggies are evenly coated with the herbs, salt and coconut oil.
• Pour and spread onto a large jellyroll pan (a cookie sheet with sides) and bake for 35 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and potatoes are tender.

BANANA, CHOCOLATE HAZELNUT AND POTATO STRAW CREPE

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix the flour and salt together. Whisk in the milk, cream, butter and egg until smooth. Cover the bowl and refrigerate, about 1 hour.
• Add a pat of butter to a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 ounces of the batter and swirl around to coat the skillet in an even thin layer. Cook until light golden brown, about 1 minute. Flip the crepe with a fish spatula or thin turner and cook, 15 to 45 seconds. Transfer the crepe to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter if needed.
• Spread each crepe with a generous helping of chocolate spread, slices from half a banana and a handful of potato straws. Roll up, closing off both ends and cut on a bias. Serve dusted with powdered sugar.

Steps:

• For the marinade: In a bowl, whisk together the oil, salt, paprika, chili powder, lemon zest and juice and garlic.
• For the chicken and roasted vegetables: Put the chicken in a large resealable plastic bag, add the marinade and marinate for at least 8 hours and up to overnight.
• When ready to roast, position an oven rack in the bottom third of the oven (to leave clearance for the bundt pan and chicken) and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Toss the peppers, sweet potatoes and half of the fennel and onions in a bowl with the olive oil and some salt and pepper. Spread the vegetables out on a baking sheet, leaving the center clear for the bundt pan.
• In the bottom of a bundt pan, add the wine, garlic, rosemary and remaining fennel and onions. Remove the chicken from the marinade (discard the marinade) and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Using a square of foil, cover the hole of the bundt. Stand the chicken upright on the bundt center over the foil. Roast until the chicken registers 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, about 50 minutes. Let the chicken rest for 15 minutes before serving.
• Meanwhile, strain the residual juices in the bundt pan and pour into a medium skillet. Bring to a simmer and cook until reduced by half. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat and slowly whisk in the butter.
