Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Season the halved chicken with salt and black pepper. Brush with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

  2. 2

    Grill the Chicken

    Place the chicken halves on the grill, skin side down. Grill for about 15-20 minutes until the skin is crispy, then flip and cook for another 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  3. 3

    Sauté the Kale

    In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Add the chopped Tuscan kale, a pinch of salt, and sauté until wilted, about 5-7 minutes.

  4. 4

    Roast the Mushrooms

    On a baking sheet, toss the sliced mushrooms with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Make the Lemon Puree

    In a blender, combine lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and a splash of chicken stock. Blend until smooth.

  6. 6

    Prepare the Chicken Jus

    In a saucepan, combine remaining chicken stock with any juices from the grilled chicken. Simmer for 5-10 minutes until slightly reduced.

  7. 7

    Serve

    On a plate, arrange the grilled chicken, sautéed Tuscan kale, and roasted mushrooms. Drizzle with lemon puree and chicken jus. Garnish with fresh parsley.
