Roasted Chicken Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Chicken

   Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Rub the half chicken with olive oil, and season generously with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Place the chicken on a roasting pan.

2. 2

   Roast the Chicken

   Roast the chicken in the preheated oven for about 1 hour, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the skin is crispy.

3. 3

   Prepare the Whipped Potatoes

   While the chicken is roasting, peel and chop the potatoes. Boil them in salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and return to the pot. Add butter and milk, and whip until smooth. Season with salt to taste.

4. 4

   Prepare the Brussels Sprouts

   Trim and halve the Brussels sprouts. Toss them with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them out on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for the last 20-25 minutes of the chicken's cooking time, until crispy and golden.

5. 5

   Make the Mustard Demi-Glace

   In a small saucepan, combine chicken broth, honey, and Dijon mustard. Bring to a simmer and reduce until slightly thickened, about 5-10 minutes. Whisk in mustard to taste.

6. 6

   Serve

   Plate the roasted chicken with a generous scoop of whipped potatoes and crispy Brussels sprouts. Drizzle with the mustard demi-glace before serving.
