Getting your chicken super juicy on the inside and extra crispy on the outside requires one simple tool (that’s the brick part) and a few helpful techniques.
The egg-enriched buttermilk mixture makes for an especially crunchy and craggy coating. This recipe is from Buxton Hall, one of the Hot 10, America’s Best New Restaurants 2016.
We like to cook chicken breasts with the skin on because it helps keep the meat moist. And this recipe calls for a little aromatic thyme and garlic to be tucked underneath the skin to flavor the chicken as it cooks. We’ll let you decide whether to pluck off the skin before eating.
Size matters. This isn't the time for a mammoth Oven Stuffer, nor do we want some petite poussin—a 3½–4-lb. bird has the proportions we're after. When the breasts are roasted to perfection, all that dark meat is on-the-nose-done too.
Intimidated by carving the big bird? Get ready to exercise your hands and knife skills, because Chris Morocco is going to show us the best tips to make this dinner fly!
Starting the chicken skin side down in a cold skillet lets the fat render slowly and results in the crispiest skin imaginable. It also yields a pan of flavorful schmaltz, aka liquid gold.
