Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Rub the halved chicken with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Place the chicken on a roasting pan, skin side up.

  2. 2

    Roast the Chicken

    Roast the chicken in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the skin is golden brown.

  3. 3

    Cook the Broccolini

    While the chicken is roasting, steam or blanch the broccolini in boiling water for about 3-4 minutes until tender but still crisp. Drain and set aside.

  4. 4

    Make the Gravy

    In a blender, combine roasted red peppers and chicken broth. Blend until smooth. In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat, add sliced onions, and sauté until translucent. Stir in the red pepper mixture and simmer for 5-7 minutes.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Once the chicken is cooked, let it rest for 10 minutes, then carve. Serve the chicken with the broccolini and drizzle the roasted red pepper gravy over the top. Garnish with fresh tarragon.
