Ingredients

Serves:

    • 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
    • 1 tablespoon olive oil
    • 1 tablespoon herbes de Provence
    • 1 3-pound chicken, cut into pieces, skin intact
    • 3 Meyer lemons, thinly sliced
    • 2 bricks, wrapped in two layers of aluminum foil

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400ºF.

Place the mustard, olive oil, herbes de provence in a small bowl. Whisk to combine. Spoon the mustard mixture under the skin on the chicken and refrigerate over night. Heat a large skillet over high heat. Coat with cooking spray.

Place the chicken pieces, skin side down into the skillet and press the bricks on top. Reduce the heat to low and cook 10 to 12 minutes until the skin is golden. Slide into the oven and bake 1 hour without removing the bricks. Remove the bricks, and transfer the chicken to a plate. Pour the oil and excess fat out of the skillet. Heat over medium heat and add the lemons. Cool 5 minutes before slicing, removing the skin, and serving.

Am pretty much sure that this recipe is delightful! I enjoy making this cuisine and it really made me satisfied. More so, this considered one of my favorite dishes! I also love “All-American Chocolate Cake”, “Beef Fillet with Red Wine” and “ Pigeon with Wild Fountain Cress”. I discovered all of these at www.gourmetrecipe.com and www.gourmandia.com. Try to visit those sites including www.allthemeat.com and explore your new favorite dishes. Have fun!

Are they talking about bricks like you would use to build a house? I don't think a brick would taste very good with chicken. That would hurt my teeth. What would you cut it with?

All recipes I look at have something I have never heard of......such as "herbes de Provence." What is this? I have to cook my own meals since my wife (married 51 years) passed away and I do pretty well for myself and I can cook pretty good as long as it is simple with simple ingrediants.
