Mustard-and-Soy Roast Chicken with Carrot Top Chimichurri

Credit: © Abby Hocking
Go to Recipe

Roast chicken is a crowd-pleaser, so it's nice to mix it up once in a while. Here, chef Hugh Acheson brushes the chicken with a simple and tasty combination of soy and mustard while it's roasting so the skin gets a beautiful burnished color. He serves it alongside a smart version of chimichurri made with carrot greens.

This perfectly crisp and juicy roast chicken is one of many fundamental recipes that chef Hugh Acheson includes in Seed Life Skills, a new home economics program he launched in Athens, Georgia, middle schools.

Hot-and-Crunchy Chicken Cones

Go to Recipe

This ingenious fried chicken is coated in a mix of cornflakes, slivered almonds and sesame seeds, then wrapped in a tortilla with a mango-jalapeño slaw and a spicy ancho "paint." An easier way: Keep the crunch but omit the chile "paint," instead upping the amount of jalapeños in the slaw.

Braised Chicken all'Arrabbiata

Go to Recipe

All'Arrabbiata means "in an angry style" in Italian. Chef Robert Holt braises his chicken with five kinds of peppers in a wood-fired oven. An easier way: Spice the chicken with poblano and chile flakes, then braise it. For extra kick, toss in some hot pickled cherry peppers.

Maple-Glazed Chicken Breasts with Mustard Jus

Go to Recipe

Chef David Slater glazes chicken breasts with maple syrup, sherry vinegar and orange juice infused with spices. Then he serves them with a confit chicken leg, caramelized root vegetables, braised kale and crisp bacon. An easier way: Glaze the chicken breasts with a sweet-tangy blend of syrup and vinegar and skip the confit leg and root vegetables.
