• Remove skillet; flip chicken. Return skillet onto chicken; roast until cooked through and an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of the thigh reaches 165 degrees, about 10 minutes.

ROAST CHICKEN WITH ARTICHOKES, TOMATOES AND PEPPERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Place about two-thirds of the artichokes in a food processor with the garlic, 2 teaspoons of the olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and pepper. Process until smooth, stopping as necessary to scrape the sides of the bowl.
• Carefully loosen the skin over the breast from the meat, forming 2 pouches. Stuff the pouches with the artichoke mixture. Rub the skin with the remaining teaspoon of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Fill the cavity with the lemon, the rosemary and the remaining artichoke hearts. Place in a roasting pan and roast for 35 minutes, running a spatula under the chicken once or twice to prevent it from sticking to the pan.
• Combine the tomato, roasted pepper and cayenne and spoon the mixture over the chicken. Continue roasting until the juices run clear when pricked in the thickest part of the thigh, about 35 minutes longer, basting every 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let stand for 10 minutes before carvings. Carve and divide among 4 plates, serving a little of the artichoke puree with each serving.
