I love it when chefs say 'add a little bit of butter' and then add half a block to the pan.

Flipping the lemon and juicing it/catching the seeds with one hand. such a badass move. The best chefs have the sickest style
That chicken looks incredible. This is a great technique but a home cook's biggest difference is going to come from buying a heritage chicken instead of a 7lb supermarket roaster.
Making this dish for lunch today, chicken brining in fridge, loads of aromats in brine, serving with rosemary Parmantier potatoes and french beans
I like how Will takes one bite then the video ends. No more needs to be said, you can see the deliciousness with your eyes.
Sort of new subscriber. Thanks for sharing all of this and making this home cook think and rethink about the possibilities for things…even the small stuff. Looking forward to the next post!
Excellent. Another use for the smaller cast iron pan. Years back I had a foil wrapped brick I used for that. I think I was spatch-cocking the chicken and roasting in the oven. Your version looks much better.
I love you, guys. Thanks for all your videos.
Great work Will! Looks amazing and I'm sure it tasted even better! Thanks for sharing 🙂😋😎❤
Gonna try this recipe over the Christmas holidays!
My goodness that looks amazing!
This is what you call respecting the animal. The technique and method applied with simple ingredients but cooked beautifully *chefs kiss*

Nice method. I have the same induction hob at home and they are very powerful. Weirdly you can get less power than the lowest setting of 1. If you hit the button it goes to temperature mode and you have 60-240 instead of 1-10. Anything under 100 is very gentle if required. Obviously cast iron gives you control with its heat retention as mentioned in the video.
Nice ! I changed the plating at the end and placed the sauce on the bottom to keep the crispness. Loved it!
Cooked all chicken this way at Jamie Oliver Fifteen. Proper stuff
fantastic. as a professional chef, i always learn stuff in your videos. but thighs are definitely superior 😌
Looks fantasy chef. Loving the Nisbets special induction hob too! Did you take the chicken to 56 and then rest it?

What brand of brandy are you using for that sauce?
do you ever have a problem with emulsifying that much butter into a sauce? how do you know if you there's too much fat in the pan and is there a way to do it substituting the brandy and/or the chicken stock
@timit29
6 ай бұрын
Swap brandy for white wine if you want a more acidic sauce, otherwise whisky. For stock I could see a mushroom stock (with dried shiitake) work really well.
10% salt is more than the salt % of the cell so through osmosis the water is going out of the cells therefore dehydrating the chicken Diffusion will make some salt go into the cells and draw some water with it as well
well that's dinner tomorrow sorted!
The American way is with the thigh meat taken off the bone with the breast so you get light and dark meat looks great chef
Looks beautiful, but leaving chicken skin down on the cutting board will make it soggy. I need to try this sauce, never used fresh estragon.

Should you actually cook it to 72? Or should you pull it at lower temp?
@Harfpint-chef

Pull it at a lower temperature and the residual heat will carry on cooking it while it rests. If you pull it at 72 by the time it has rested it will be overcooked.

We Russians make the whole chicken under the press, it’s called chicken Tabacka. It t has to be a young chicken, which is marinated with lots of garlic, pepper and vinegar, butterflied along the spine bone, opened up like a book and put under the press on the cast iron skillet. Second course is always watermelon. Cheers to our confederate brothers down south. Russians also make their moonshine and it’s wicked

I find a lot of butchery breakdown videos to be far too fast or unclear. The taking off of the legs and wings was very speedy and shows your skill - I couldn’t do it that fast for sure - but the essential bit, being the removal of the breasts together as a whole and then the trimming of that single ‘cut’ of chicken, was covered really nicely. Wanna give this a try now!
Could you guys tell me why a professional kitchen wouldn't use *tallow*, instead of oil? Given that seed oils are very controversial lately, I'm curious about the pros and cons of tallow.
@Equinoxious342

Tallow is expensive, carcinogenic seed oils are cheap. Tallow tends to be messy and much harder to clean up as it’s solid at room temp. Avocado oil is a healthy, high-smoke point oil so ideal but it dents the bottom line so rarely used in restaurants. Restaurants would rather just kill you.

"Brick Chicken" did definitely not originate in America. It's an old roman style of cooking chicken and is called "Al mattone". Amazing way of cooking the chicken, but American it is not.

this guys every recepi is butter butter butter butter
The chicken is raw.. shouldn't be using a red knife rather than a yellow one? 👀🤔
I'm sure it tastes good, but letting it rest skin side down, then putting the sauce on top takes away most of the crispiness
dont you need the weight to be hot? looks fantastic tho

You don't get hot spots in a cast iron pan? Nah dawg. Cast iron heats REALLY slowly and unevenly, with a central hot spot, not nearly as good at conducting heat as aluminum/copper core pans. What it does well is hold a steady temp once it's gotten hot. But it takes a long time to get there. Also, this is going to piss off all classically-trained chefs, but pan basting does nothing. Nothing.

I came from the brick, disappointed
the camera is auto focusing in a way that's meant to record faces and it ends up making the food look a little blurry at times and it kinda messing with my eyes, I believe this Is fixable with just a potential lense change to something more meant for land scapes, or cheap maybe soft wear you could rewrite what ever tells the camera to auto focus on faces and have it do a more full screen clear shot,
No brick, Disliked
eating the chicken with a spoon made me unnecessarily angry
It’s easier to remove the wishbone before making any other cuts. Also allows you to get the complete breast off without having to cut through the wishbone. And I get the top pan blazing hot before putting it on the chicken so it cooks more evenly. If you’re gonna smother it with a pan sauce there’s no need to flavor the chicken basting it with herbs in butter.
