Organic Roasted Half Chicken The Ultimate Italian Comfort Food

When it comes to Italian comfort food what typically comes to mind are classics like pasta, bolognese, spaghetti and meatballs, risotto, and all varieties of parmeseans, marsalas and piccatas, but hands down, one of the most scrumptious, comforting dish is our locally-sourced, organic roasted chicken with mashed potatoes and sautéed spinach.

It’s a classic Italian everyday staple, inexpensive and easy to prepare at home. Consequently, when dining out you might want to try something new, exotic, even risky like chicken livers sautéed with garlic, onions, cherry tomatoes and white wine, or chicken ballantine which requires stuffing. Who has time for stuffing at home! But that savory classic is still here for you when you want to come home while dining out.

Home is where the heart is, and the fresh bird…rinsed, plump, and covered in thick, cream-colored skin.

We marinate it in roasted garlic infused with olive oil, salt, pepper, very fresh rosemary and lemon for 24 hrs.

Made to order, it’s seared in the 500 degree oven. Flipped once, it has that crispy brown coating all around. You can request extra crispy too! Why not?

The luscious gravy is made from our own chicken stock, mushrooms, and heavy cream.

It’s served with spinach and creamy mashed potatoes. Good to be home again
