Herb Roasted Chicken
1 whole chicken, turkey, or turkey breast
Kosher salt
Olive oil
Dried thyme, rosemary and sage -or herbs of your choice
Place poultry in large bowl and cover with water. Add about ½ cup kosher salt per gallon of water (you can just estimate). Cover and refrigerate 12-24 hours, depending on the size of the bird, you may have to turn it over after 12 hours and let the other side soak in the brine the other 12 hours.
Rinse off the brine; pat dry, place on roasting pan. Lightly brush olive oil all over bird and sprinkle it with herbs. Bake it breast side down at 350 for 30 minutes. Turn it over and bake 30 more minutes or until internal temp reaches 165, or leg joint juices run clear when cracked back. While baking, cover loosely with foil if it begins to brown too much or splatter juices all over the oven. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing.

Spicy Pork Roast with Rosemary Potatoes
For the pork:
1 tsp ground cumin
1 Tbs red pepper flakes
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 Tbs garlic powder
1 Tbs salt
1 (3-pound) pork roast, cut into 4 stekas, 2-in thick
For the potatoes:
3 russet potatoes, cut into 1" pieces
2 sprigs rosemary, stripped
2 Tbs vegetable oil
Salt
For the Sweet and Sour Sauce
3/4 c sugar
1/2 c red wine vinegar
1 c orange juice
1 Tbs butter
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
To prepare the pork: Mix spices together in a small bowl. Rub mixture over pork. Let set at room temperature, 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, toss potatoes with rosemary, oil and salt. In a smal saucepan, bring sugar, vinegar and orange juice to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and continue cooking sweet and sour sacue until it reduces by half, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat, swirl in butter and keep warm before using.
In a 13" cast iron skillet (I've always just used my regular 12" oven safe skillet), heat 2 Tbs vegetable oil. When pan is smoking hot, add pork, and sear on both sides. Add potatoes and place in the oven until pork is cooked through and potatoes are tender, about 40 minutes.
Serve pork chops with rosemary potatoes and drizzled with the sweet and sour sauce.
