Description

A quick and delicious chicken recipe that pairs golden, crispy skin with a savory pan gravy, perfect for weeknight dinners or special occasions.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 bone-in chicken pieces (thighs, drumsticks, breasts)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp chopped rosemary
  • 1 tbsp chopped thyme
  • 1 tbsp chopped parsley
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 cup white wine or chicken stock
  • 2 tbsp flour (or 1 tbsp cornstarch for gluten-free)
  • 2 cups warm chicken stock

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (218°C).
  2. Pat the chicken pieces dry and toss with olive oil, salt, pepper, chopped herbs, and baking powder.
  3. Place chicken on a wire rack over a rimmed sheet pan and roast until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (about 35–45 minutes).
  4. For the gravy, pour off excess fat from the pan, leaving the brown bits.
  5. Deglaze the pan with white wine or chicken stock and whisk in flour (or cornstarch) and warm chicken stock.
  6. Simmer the gravy over low heat until thickened.

Notes

Patting the chicken dry before seasoning helps promote crispness. Use a wire rack to avoid soggy skin during roasting.
