Method

Preparing the Chicken

  1. 1

    Season the Chicken

    Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Rub the whole chicken with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and fresh thyme.

  2. 2

    Roast the Chicken

    Place the chicken in a roasting pan and roast for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Let it rest for 10 minutes before carving.

Making the Crushed Potatoes

    Boil the baby potatoes in salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and let cool slightly.

  2. 4

    Crush and Season

    Gently crush the potatoes with a fork, add butter, salt, and black pepper to taste.

Preparing the Nduja Cream

  1. 5

    Make the Cream

    In a small saucepan over low heat, combine nduja, heavy cream, and lemon juice. Stir until smooth and heated through. Do not boil.

Cooking the Leeks and Hakurei Turnips

  1. 6

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced leeks and cubed hakurei turnips. Sauté until tender and lightly caramelized, about 10-15 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper.
