Mustard-Roasted Chicken with Warm Frisée Salad and Fingerlings and Bacon

This mustard-roasted chicken is a sophisticated take on a classic Sunday roast, offering a punchy depth of flavour through a rich Dijon and garlic marinade. The chicken is roasted with fragrant woody herbs until the skin is golden and the meat is exceptionally tender. To elevate the dish further, it is served alongside a vibrant salad of slightly bitter frisée lettuce, salty bacon lardons, and buttery potatoes, which soak up the savoury roasting juices beautifully.

As a high-protein option, this recipe is as nourishing as it is indulgent, making it an excellent choice for a healthy yet comforting family meal. The combination of fresh parsley, thyme, and sage brings a bright, earthy balance to the richness of the poultry. Serve this at your next dinner party or gathering for a rustic, French-inspired feast that feels both effortless and impressive.
