🍳 Recipe Information

Green Goddess Roasted Chicken

Green Goddess dressing — a creamy, piquant blend of herbs, garlic and anchovies — is good to eat on salad. And it’s wonderful as a dipping sauce for vegetables. But its best use may be as a marinade for roast chicken. The mild chicken absorbs all the zippy flavors of the dressing, to emerge from the oven fragrant and golden, flecked with green. To intensify the herbal flavor, some of the green goddess mixture is set aside to use as a sauce. You could even pour a little on a salad or some vegetables on the side, and enjoy the best of all the Green Goddess variations in one savory bite.

⏰ Total: 1h 15m 👥 Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients:
  • 1 1/2 cups buttermilk or plain yogurt
  • 1 cup packed basil leaves
  • 1/4 cup packed chives
  • 2 garlic cloves, peeled
  • 2 anchovy fillets (optional)
  • 1 scallion, white and green parts
  • Finely grated zest and juice of 1 lime
  • 2 teaspoons coarse kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 (4- to 5-pound) chicken, halved through the breast and back bones, patted dry with paper towels
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
Instructions:
  1. In a blender, purée buttermilk, basil, chives, garlic, anchovies (if using), scallion, lime zest and juice, salt and pepper until smooth.
  2. Put chicken halves in a bowl or large heavy-duty resealable plastic bag and cover with three-quarters of the Green Goddess marinade. (Save the rest to serve as a sauce.) Refrigerate for at least 6 hours or up to overnight.
  3. Heat oven to 500 degrees. Remove chicken from the marinade, shaking off as much liquid as possible, and lay the halves on a rimmed baking sheet. (Discard the used marinade.) Pat chicken tops dry with paper towels and drizzle with oil. Roast until cooked through, about 30 to 45 minutes. Let rest for 10 minutes before serving, with some of the reserved sauce if you like.

Although I was  few steps behind them, the red hair was just so distinctive. A few years earlier, I had seen Madonna exiting the Ritz in Paris, but seeing Melissa Clark in the Louvre was so much more exciting for this 71-year-old NYT Cooking fan girl. Much to the embarrassment of the teenager traveling with me, and I suspect the teenager traveling with Melissa, I called out “Are you Melissa Clark?”  When she answered affirmatively with a smile, I called out “Green Goddess Chicken!” That said it all. A most perfect recipe from the goddess of NYT Cooking. BTW, I have also adjusted the oven temp to 450 degrees. If you haven’t tried this recipe, what are you waiting for? Melissa, I will be in Paris in October. Hope to see you again. Musee d’Orsay perhaps?",

Clean your oven the day before you make this if you plan to follow the recipe exactly, with blast furnace temperature. Otherwise the fire department may show up at your house.
