Directions
Roast Chicken With Ginger, Macaroni and Caramelized Tomatoes, Another Provencal recipe (Poulet Roti au Gingembre, Coudes au Jus) by way of Richard Olney Cooking time includes an hour for draining/drying the tomatoes , Let me say, I gave this 5 stars! The Beau, aka The Picky Eater, liked it but wasn’t as ‘effusive’ as I was, lol He thought the pasta was a little too lemony, I disagree and thought it was just right, but next time I make this I’ll modify just for his tastes a tad I had tiny lemons, so used 2 and a half, so I could have just done one and a half, but that’s ok 😉 After I juiced the lemons, I stuffed the ‘spent’ lemons in the chicken cavity, the rest of the recipe I followed exactly! I might like a little more ginger myself next time, but The Beau isn’t as fond of ginger as I am, so I’ll try to balance it out used some large roma tomatoes and it seemed that they probably had less juice, etc When I carmelized the tomatoes, I actually let them be in the pan, without stirring much so they could get good and carmelized They seemed to keep their shape too and were very flavourful! Can’t wait until I have my garden tomatoes to choose from this summer! used an organic free-range bird and it was very juicy with the basting and lemon and wine Mine took a bit longer than the prescribed time to finish cooking but it was worth the wait Thanks Chef Kate!
