Skillet Chicken Roast

March 6, 2014 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 6 Comments

Hi Everyone,

Boy oh Boy does my house smell delicious!!  Oh what is that smell?  One of the most amazing roasted chicken dishes ever!  I’m not kidding!  I am so happy with my chicken dish I could squeal with excitement.  Just look at this bad boy!!

Chicken Skillet Roast
OK, probably not the prettiest pictures in the world, but it tastes out of this world! I personally think that the look of a chicken is just not pretty, plus it’s so big, it’s hard to photograph. But anyway, I love it! The chicken has a nice crusty skin, the meat is so juicy and tender and the vegetables have a wonderful caramelized flavor. This was a big hit at the Peanut Butter and Peppers household. So forget those rotisserie chickens at the grocery store, this recipe blows them away!!
Chicken Skillet Roast
This chicken is a breeze to make! I added onions and carrots with a little olive oil to a cast iron skillet, topped it with my chicken, added potatoes and baked it in the oven for 60 minutes. No basting required. The vegetables turned out tender and some of them may look a little burnt, but they are not. They have a wonderful, homey flavor from the juices of the chicken. I love cooking the chicken in a skillet. Have you ever cooked your whole chicken in a skillet? It’s less of a mess then a roasting pan and the vegetables are all nuzzled together perfectly. I have to admit this really was the easiest any by far one of the best chickens I have ever made. My Husband even agreed! Here’s the chicken before it went into the oven.  Don’t you love my pink bakers twine?
Chicken Skillet Roast
To make the chicken, all I did was rub it with butter and sprinkled STUBB’S Chicken Rub all over it. The skin was perfectly crusty and has a wonderful slightly sweet with a savory garlic taste. I am not much for using poultry seasoning on my meat, but this was the best!! My Husband asked me what I used on the skin and I told him and he was pretty impressed. Now I will be sprinkling STUBB’S all over a bunch of my chicken recipes. I can’t wait to get grilling. By the way STUBB’S Chicken Spice Rub is all natural, gluten-free and zero calories!! 🙂

A moist, tender roasted chicken cooked in a cast iron skillet and served with roasted potatoes, carrots and onions.
Serves: 1 whole chicken, 3 cups of potatoes, 1 cups of carrots, about ½ cup of onions
Ingredients
  • 4½ lbs. whole chicken
  • 1 onion, sliced thick
  • 2 cup carrots, cut in 1" pieces
  • 1 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 lbs. red potatoes, washed (if large, cut in half)
  • 2 tbsp. butter
  • 1 lemon
  • 2 cloves garlic, smashed
  • 2 tbsp. poultry seasoning (I used Stubbs)
  • salt & pepper
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees
  2. Let chicken rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.
  3. Wash chicken and pat dry. Sprinkle the cavity of the chicken with salt and pepper and add garlic cloves.
  4. Roll lemon with your hand to make it juicy, cut it in half and add to the cavity of the chicken.
  5. Trust the chicken. To trust the chicken, cut about 3 feet of baking twine. Place the chicken so that breast side is up, and the legs are pointed towards you. Tuck the wing tips under the chicken. Wrap the string under the neck end of the bird, pulling the string ends up over the breast, toward you, plumping up the breast. Then cross the string under the breast. Wrap each end around the closest leg end, and tie tightly so that the legs come together.
  6. Rub butter over the chicken and sprinkle with STUBB'S chicken seasoning and a little ground pepper.
  7. In a heavy cast iron skillet, layer the bottom of the skillet with onions and carrots. Drizzle with olive oil and give it a mix.
  8. Top the onions and carrots with the chicken. Add potatoes around the side of the chicken.
  9. Place in oven and roast for 60 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees.
  10. Place the chicken on a cutting board and cover with aluminium foil. Let the chicken rest for 10 minutes, so that all the juices run back into the chicken. To keep your vegetables warm, turn off the oven and placing the skillet of vegetables back in the oven.
  11. Cut the chicken into pieces and serve with vegetables.
Notes
Sorry Guys, this was to hard to calculate calories on this recipe. The chicken was 210 calories for 4 oz.according the package.

Chicken Skillet Roast
I really enjoyed today’s recipe and seriously it blows those rotisserie chickens out the window. Plus it was extremely easy to make. I made this on a Sunday night, but it’s so easy that you can make this during the work week. Just side it with some crusty bread or a nice salad.  Yum, yum, yum!  I can’t wait to make this again!!

Have a great day!


Toodles,

Jennifer

    I always roast my chickens in a skillet too, Jen! SO much easier than messing with a roasting pan. However, I almost always forget to put some veggies in there with it, then end up cooking a veggie side dish separately :/

Happy Monday! I’m sharing with you a rare view o Happy Monday! I’m sharing with you a rare view of my kitchen. What’s so rare about it! It’s clean. 🤣 
.
So this weekend our refrigerator broke. The freezer no longer works and the fridge is not getting cool enough. Ugh!! We bought our Whirlpool refrigerator about 4 years ago and spent near $3000 for it. It sure didn’t last long. 
.
After reading reviews on a million refrigerators, they all seem like crap. I need your help! Do you have a refrigerator that you recommend? 
.
I saw a Frigidaire one that we are debating on, but not sure? The reviews are good, but says, they were collected from a promotion. So I’m not sure how much I trust that? Anyway, any recommendations that you have would be great! 
.
Have a great day!

I have been decorating the house for Easter and Spring. I love how this little space turned out. I am loving the bright pastels. I added my new bunny/chick pillow that I got from @12timbers. It matches so perfectly and it’s so cute. I also couldn’t resist the chick pillow from Target. 
🐰
Have the best day!

Hi Everyone! I hope you had a great weekend. I mus Hi Everyone! I hope you had a great weekend. I must say I was disappointed in the Super Bowl. I really wanted the 49ers to win. Anyway, this weekend I refreshed my guest bathroom.
🐰
I have to say my new favorite item is the towel holder. It’s so cute and practical. I don’t have a hand towel rack and I hated leaving my towels on my counter. I saw the towel holder from Target and had to get it. It’s the Hearth and Hand brand.
🐰
I added some bunnies for Spring and a touch of pink for some color. The hand towels are from Homegoods. They have so many bunnies and Easter decor. I had to control myself because I was with my husband. I may go back. 
🐰
Have a great day!!

Happy Monday!! I have to confess to you. I still h Happy Monday!! I have to confess to you. I still have Christmas in my kitchen.😳 I don’t know where to put it, so I haven’t taken it down. It’s not a lot, but just enough to where I can’t fit it. Ugh!  Please tell me I’m not the only one. 
💕
I did do one little spot for Valentines, which I think is so cute. I love decorating with Valentines candy. I can’t resist the pinks and the conversation hearts. I do not plan on going all out decorating this season, as time is going so fast, but I may add some hearts here and there. 
💕
Do you decorate for Valentine’s Day?

Hi Everyone! With spring around the corner, now is Hi Everyone! With spring around the corner, now is the time to get your chores done, so when the warmer weather arrives you can enjoy it. My goal is to refresh my bedroom. I am slowly getting rid of stuff that I no longer need and slowly adding new decor. So hopefully in a few weeks it will be done. #twopageshome
♥️
The first thing I added are these stunning customized curtains that I was gifted from @twopagescurtains. Guys, I’m in love! The curtains are just so pretty! I am loving the way it shades the sun, but still lets the light in. Exactly the look I was going for.
♥️
The curtains I chose are the “Liz Linen Drape Soft”. They are a linen curtain that is environmentally friendly, hypoallergenic, long lasting, dust preventative, and breathable. They are also wrinkle free. I didn’t have to steam them. They came right out of the package ready to hang. They also come in 38 colors and 7 shadings to choose from. There is an option for everyone.
♥️
I’ll be honest I was intimidated on ordering custom curtains. I was so afraid I would order them wrong, but I didn’t. Two Pages has a measurement finder that asks you a few easy questions and boom you have your custom curtain size. It was so simple.
♥️
If you are looking for some new curtains or shades for your home, I highly recommend Two Page Curtains. I absolutely love them. They were kind enough to give my followers an 8% discount code: PBANDP. Link in bio
♥️
Are you planning on refreshing any spaces?

Happy Friday! Hope you had a wonderful holiday sea Happy Friday! Hope you had a wonderful holiday season. I am slowly working on taking my Christmas decor down. I still have my tree up, but I love the twinkling lights, and the real reason is I need my husband to get the box out of the garage. lol 
💙
I am going with blues in the living room. I just find blue calming and peaceful. The first area I styled is the coffee table. Sorry about the views. I have a small, thin living room.
💙
I decided to go light on the decor and add some fresh faux greenery. I hate leaving the remote controls out, so I decided to store them in a decorative box. Everything here, but the white box was bought at Target. 
💙
Have a wonderful weekend!

Hi Everyone! Hope you had a wonderful Christmas. I Hi Everyone! Hope you had a wonderful Christmas. It was low key for us, as it was just my husband and I. We had dinner at my daughters house on Christmas Eve. That was nice. 
🎄
I am sharing my last view of my living room before I take down my Christmas decor. I will leave some of the winter type greens, but I think I’m going to add some blues. I have always liked blue after the holidays. It just gives the room a light and clean look.
🎄
I want to say sorry for lack of posting. It’s just so time consuming engaging. I hate spending countless hours on my phone. It has made me physically lazy and it hurts my eyes. I have put on so much weight because all I do is sit. I really need to change this habit. Anyway! I hope you have a wonderful day!!!
