  • Everything you need to make my version of this classic dinner, which serves 4-6. Thanks to Skillshare for sponsoring this video! The first 500 people to sign up via my link will get two FREE months of Skillshare Premium: skl.sh/adamragusea
    1 approx. 4 lb chicken
    1/2 lemon
    1 shallot (or chunk of onion)
    1 stick of rosemary (or other herb)
    1 lb red potatoes
    1 Russet potato
    1/2 stick of butter (or less)
    1/2 head of garlic
    1/2 cup of milk (or maybe a little more)
    1/2 cup of white wine (optional)
    4 cups of frozen peas
    water
    flour
    olive oil
    salt
    pepper
    garlic powder
    For the chicken, put some olive oil in a 10-inch skillet and put the chicken on top. Put in enough salt and pepper to coat the entire chicken, and smoosh the olive oil and seasoning around every surface of the chicken. If you have them, stick a chunk of lemon, a shallot or chunk of onion, and some rosemary (or other herb) into the cavity of the chicken.
    Get the oven pre-heating to 400 F (convection, if you have it). Turn a burner on medium under the pan and cook the bottom of the chicken for about 15 minutes. Transfer the chicken to the oven. After about 30 minutes, sprinkle the breast with garlic powder and up the temperature to 425 F. Cook another 15 minutes or until the deepest part of the breast reads 160 F (or 165 if you need to be particularly cautious about food safety).
    For the gravy, remove the chicken from the pan to a plate after it's done roasting. If you don't want a ton of gravy, pour off some of the fat (possibly into the mashed potatoes). Turn heat on medium under the pan. Whisk enough flour into the fat to make a thick paste, and cook for a minute until it smells nutty. Deglaze with some water, stock, or white wine, and scrape all the fond from the bottom of the pan. Whisk in some more water or stock until it looks like a very loose sauce and simmer for about 10 minutes until it becomes thick and brown. You could chop up the shallot/onion from the chicken and throw that in, and you could squeeze in the lemon from the chicken if you like lemony gravy. When the gravy looks thick enough, test for seasoning and adjust with salt and pepper or anything else you want. Then dilute with more water or stock, accounting for the fact that the gravy will thicken as it cools. Strain it if you don't want the chunks.
    For the potatoes, cut the red potatoes into even, big pieces for boiling. Don't peel them. Peel the Russet potato and cut it into slightly bigger pieces than the red potatoes, because the Russet cooks faster. Put the potatoes in a pot of water and boil until you can easily pierce them with a fork. While they're boiling, peel and chop the garlic. Drain the potatoes into a colander and return the empty pot to the heat. Put in a little butter, and fry the garlic until just golden. Put in the milk, get it hot, then put in the potatoes. Put in some of the excess chicken fat and/or as much butter as you want (I do half a stick), a big pinch of salt, then mash until everything is combined. Stir with a spoon (the masher is bad at mixing) and test for seasoning.
    For the peas, put the frozen peas into a microwave safe container, cover with water, and microwave until boiling. Strain, then stir in a little butter and salt.
    MY COOKING PHILOSOPHY: I don't like weighing or measuring things if I don't have to, and I don't like to be constantly checking a recipe as I cook. I don't care that volume is a bad way of measuring things - it's usually easier. I like for a recipe to get me in the ballpark, and then I like to eyeball and improvise the rest. If you're like me, my goal with these videos is to give you a sense of how the food should look and feel as you're cooking it, rather than give you a refined formula to reproduce.

    Q: Aren't red potatoes bad for mash? Don't they set up like library paste when they cool?
    A: Yes, if you only use red. But the mixture of the two types of starches you get by adding in a Russet (or any floury potato) fixes that problem. I like the red skins. Yukon potatoes are nice too, but where I live you can only buy those in giant bags.
    Q: What was the brown thing in the frozen peas?
    A: A little piece of stem. Not unusual. I took it out.
    Q: Why frozen peas?
    A: Good fresh peas are really hard to come by. They start losing their sweetness the second you pick them. I speak from experience; I used to grow them. The few times I've gotten fresh peas at the farmer's market, they've been starchy by the time I could eat them. Frozen peas are the greatest frozen vegetable. The farmers/processors are able to pick and freeze them at their peak of sweetness, and the flash freezing process they use really preserves the texture. The times in my life when I've had perfect fresh peas have been moments of divine inspiration, but they've also been few and far between.
    Q: Can you be more specific about why you didn't like the breast-side-down method?
    A: 1) It didn't cook the dark meat as much as I want, though it did a better job than standard roasting; 2) There wasn't nearly as much good fond, so the gravy was pale and bland; 3) The breast didn't have time to brown as much as I wanted; 4) It was kinda hard to know when to flip it, and the flip was kinda physically tricky. The breast stuck to the pan and the skin tore.
    Q: Why didn't you make Yorkshire pud?
    A: I'm willing to be proven wrong, mate, but I've eaten many yorkies in the U.K. and in my own kitchen, and I think they're overrated. I think the gravy is a higher use for that fat. But you do you!
    Q: Why did you let that lemon seed just drop into the gravy?
    A: Because I'm not fussy. Unless it's for a dessert or something, I never worry about catching the seeds. They haven't bothered me yet. But you do you.
    Q: I saw some pink flesh in your leg quarters. Are they undercooked?
    A: No, they're cooked to smithereens, which is how I like my dark meat. The flesh right around the hip joint will pretty much always be pink, even if you cook it to a really high temp, as I did. This is one of many reasons why color is an imperfect gauge of temperature in meat.
    Q: Why is your gravy pale?
    A: I wouldn't call it pale; I'd call it blonde, which is how I usually like poultry gravy. You could make yours more brown by cooking the roux for longer. Personally, I really dislike the flavor of brown roux. In the U.K., they're also fond of using additives to brown their gravy, such as a liquid caramel coloring they call "gravy browning." You could also use that, I guess!
    END NOTE: I really want to thank everyone for being so positive and supportive about my first sponsorship! Skillshare is a great company, they've been great to work with, and you'd be doing me and yourself a favor if you clicked on the link up top and got your two-month trial. I also want to thank my agent, Colin West, who is out there making a lot of things happen for me with his bad-ass Scottish accent. I put a lot of time and effort into these videos, and it's great to have my labors rewarded via good ol' fashioned commerce. As a long-time journalist, that's a very unusual experience for me!

    Adam, I LIKE that you cook slowly. I've only recently started watching your videos. As much as I love many other "foodtubers," you show cooking in a way that's not only delicious but approachable for home cooks. Not a ton of special ingredients that I'll only use once and leave to in the back of the pantry nor techniques that aren't easy to accomplish. I really enjoy watching others' ideas on how they "elevate" dishes, but in my kitchen at the end of the day, I want something easy and approachable where I don't feel like I have to rush. Thanks for sharing your recipes with us!

    I just found your channel a week ago, I've binged all your videos and have been incorporating your recipes into my daily life...
    I love the basic family recipes, I love the scientific experimentation that makes me feel like I'm doing whatever the best way I can. Please, make more!

    Everyone. This man is not joking!!!!! The last 4 times I've cooked roast chicken I've done it his way and EVERY SINGLE TIME the chicken was brilliantly cooked (IMO). Crispy skin, thoroughly cooked and juicy inside, super tender dark meat...it was SO good. And all done in a cast iron pan with olive oil, salt&pepper, and a little lemon inside. 10/10 recommend. Thank you Adam!

      Cast iron! I used a really big pan because it was the only one I had that was stove and oven safe, but it was so big that I didn’t get very much fond. I’ll have to try with cast iron

    Wow! This chicken is unbelievably good. The gravy is extremely savory and flavorful. I honestly can't believe how good this is. Easily one of the best home meals I've ever had.

    Made this last night (instead of peas I made corn though and I also made some rolls to go with it) and it was AMAZING. The gravy with the white wine in it- oh my gosh so good. Juiciest roast chicken ever and the mashed potatoes with the garlic in them were amazing. Definitely will make it again. Can’t wait to eat leftovers today!!!

  • @stluanne
    @stluanne Před 4 lety

    I made this chicken tonight again (3 times so far) - and it is, bar none, the best best best way to simply roast a chicken. If you just follow Adam's directions you'll end up with a moist, tender, perfectly-cooked 3-4 pound chicken and yummy gravy! Whatever you serve with it, your chicken will be delicious. Since there are only two of us, I end up with enough leftovers (meat, gravy and the bony carcass) to make a simple "pot pie" with a biscuit top "crust". This recipe is absolute pure gold.

    I'm going to give you the best compliment I think I can give a CZcams cooking channel. I've fed this meal to my family and friends twice in one month because how easy concise and delicious it is. Even though it was twice in the same month they were just as impressed with the food the second time they ate it. Chicken tacos used to be my go to meal to please a group and people loved them but this is just too damn good. Thank you.

    @k80.01 Před 4 lety +3

    Adam, I recently tried this roast chicken recipe, and I was skeptical at first; I thought that the meat would be bland because there’s no brine. I’m happy to say I was wrong - it came out perfectly! Juicy, tender, and insanely flavorful and delicious. Thank you for this recipe - my family and I are certain to make it again!

  • @_Avstin_

    First of all, I would like to say that your videos are the most addicting and entertaining cooking videos on CZcams period. They are so well edited, educational, and so home-y if that makes any sense. Second of all I wanted to ask if it would be a good idea to make a garlic seasoning butter and rub it all over the chicken before it bakes? The only problems I see with that is that it might burn easily. Thanks!!!

    It doesn't taste the same in the end. You take the effort to fortify and make the dishes a WHOLE lot better. Being slow means even more time to improve the dish while your cooking. You are probably one of the best home chefs I've seen. Keep up the good work sir.
