TARRAGON-ROASTED CHICKEN
Roasting a chicken used to be an intimidating concept to me. The bird seemed big, it couldn't be cooked on the stovetop, and in my mind only a mom, grandma, or some other official adult had the necessary expertise. Then I was commissioned to test a group of recipes, and roasted chicken was on the list. It turns out it isn't difficult at all. Now I think everyone should know how to roast a chicken, if only to enjoy the head start it gives you on nearly a week's worth of meals: tacos on Tuesday, chicken salad on Wednesday, and a sandwich on Thursday.What makes this recipe special is the combination of sage, rosemary, lemon, and tarragon stuffed into the bird's cavity. It smells divine while roasting, and the meat acquires a lush citrus-herb flavor. Roasted Vegetables with Tahini Vinaigrette would be great on the side. You will need a meat thermometer to make sure the chicken is properly cooked. If yours is instant-read rather than traditional, pull the bird out of the oven after 45 minutes and check the temperature in the thickest part of the thigh, avoiding the bone.Excerpted from COOKING SOLO, © 2016 by Klancy Miller.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Rinse the chicken inside and out under cold running water. Pat it dry with paper towels.
- Set the chicken in a roasting pan and squeeze the juice of 1 lemon over it, inside and out. Generously season the chicken with salt, inside and out. Push half the remaining lemon all the way into the cavity, stuff in the tarragon, sage, and rosemary, and add the remaining lemon half, like a cap for the cavity. Drizzle the olive oil over the chicken, rubbing to coat the bird well, and grind pepper all over it.
- Position a meat thermometer in the thickest part of the thigh, avoiding the bone. Place the roasting pan in the oven and roast the chicken for 45 to 50 minutes, until the skin is golden brown and the temperature reaches 165 degrees F. Let it rest for about 10 minutes before carving and serving.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425°F with rack in middle.
- Pull off excess fat around cavities of chicken and discard, then rinse chicken and pat dry. Mix together 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper and rub inside cavity. Chop enough tarragon to measure 1 1/2 tablespoons and set aside, then add remainder of bunch to cavity. Put chicken in a flameproof shallow roasting pan or gratin dish and rub all over with 1/3 cup mustard. Tie legs together with string and roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into fleshy part of a thigh (do not touch bone) registers 170°F, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
- Carefully tilt chicken so juices from cavity run into roasting pan, then transfer chicken to a cutting board and let stand 10 minutes.
- Pour off all but 2 tablespoons fat from pan. Whisk in flour, then cook over medium heat, whisking, 1 minute. Add water, whisking constantly and scraping up brown bits, and bring to a boil. Simmer sauce until slightly thickened, then whisk in cream, remaining tablespoon mustard, and salt and pepper to taste.
- Strain sauce through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, discarding solids, then stir in reserved chopped tarragon. Serve chicken with sauce.

FRENCH CHICKEN TARRAGON
Tarragon doesn't get enough love. Most people know it only in its dried form, and administered with a heavy hand. But a few sprigs of fresh tarragon can be lovely. It's a traditional component of the mixture called fines herbes, contributing sweetness and an almost anise-like flavor. It happily finds its way into salads, vinaigrettes, and homemade mayonnaise, and it is often the herb of choice for chicken or fish. Tarragon is especially well suited for these braised chicken thighs, complementing the white wine and crème fraîche.

Steps:
- Season the chicken generously with salt and pepper. Let stand for 30 minutes to 1 hour at room temperature.
- Heat the oven to 400°F. Put an enameled cast-iron Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the butter and shallots and cook, stirring, until softened and lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and chopped tarragon and cook for 1 minute (be careful not to let the garlic brown). Arrange the chicken thighs in the pot in one layer, add the broth and wine, and bring to a simmer.
- Put the lid on and place the pot on the middle shelf of the oven. Bake for 15 minutes, then lower the heat to 350°F and continue baking for 45 minutes, or until the thighs are tender. Put the thighs on a platter, cover loosely, and keep warm.
- Strain the pan juices through a fine sieve into a saucepan and spoon off any rising fat. Place the pan over medium-high heat, add the crème fraîche and lemon zest, and simmer until the sauce is slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
- Spoon the sauce over the chicken, garnish with tarragon leaves, and serve.

- Preheat the oven to 400°. Place the chicken in a small roasting pan. Rub 1 tablespoon of the butter over the chicken and season with salt and pepper. Roast for about 1 hour and 20 minutes, rotating the pan once, until the skin is browned and crisp and the chicken is cooked.
- Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter. Add the wing tips, neck, gizzard, onion and carrot, season with salt and pepper and cook over moderate heat until browned all over, about 10 minutes. Add the wine and simmer over moderately high heat until reduced to 2 tablespoons, about 4 minutes. Add the stock and bring to a boil. Simmer over low heat for 20 minutes.

- Wipe out the skillet and heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Add the white mushrooms, season with salt and pepper and cook over high heat for 1 minute. Stir and cook over moderate heat until any exuded juices evaporate and the mushrooms start to brown, about 7 minutes. Add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet. Add the oyster mushrooms, season with salt and pepper and cook over moderately high heat until browned on the bottom, about 4 minutes. Stir and cook until browned all over, about 3 minutes longer.
