Time 2h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lemon, zested
2 sprigs fresh rosemary, chopped
3 sprigs fresh thyme, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 pinch sea salt and pepper to taste
1 (3 pound) whole chicken
4 whole garlic cloves

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Combine the lemon zest, rosemary, thyme, and minced garlic in a small bowl; stir in the olive oil, then season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Separate the skin around the breast and thighs from the meat. Rub the herb mixture onto the meat, underneath the skin. Cut the zested lemon in half, and place half of the lemon into the cavity of the chicken along with the whole garlic cloves. Place the chicken into a roasting pan, and squeeze the remaining lemon half evenly over the skin of the chicken.
  • Bake the chicken in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 1 hour, 35 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone should read 180 degrees F (82 degrees C). Remove the chicken from the oven, cover with a doubled sheet of aluminum foil, and allow to rest in a warm area for 10 minutes before slicing.

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 ounces penne pasta (or another favorite pasta variety)
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 tablespoon taco seasoning
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup heavy cream (or half & half)
1/2 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend
1 (10-15 ounce) can diced tomatoes & green chilies
cilantro for garnish

Steps:

  • Cook pasta until al dente and according to package directions; set aside. Meanwhile, pat chicken dry on both sides with a paper towel. Sprinkle taco seasoning over chicken on both sides. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken to the heated pan and cook, turning once, until chicken is completely cooked through (about 5 minutes per side). Remove chicken from skillet, place on plate, and cover with foil.
  • Add butter to the same skillet the chicken was cooking in and melt over medium heat. Slowly add in the cream, whisking to incorporate all the seasonings and browned bits left behind from cooking the chicken. Whisk constantly and cook for 2 minutes. Add in cheese and diced tomatoes & green chilies; stir until thickened and cheese has melted.
  • Stir in cooked pasta and reduce heat to low.
  • Remove chicken from covered plate, slice into strips or chop into small bite-sized pieces, and add on top of pasta. Garnish with cilantro!
