Today, we're excited to share some delicious recipes that you can make using some high-quality appliances from Neff. Specifically, we'll be using the Neff N 50 71L Built-In Electric Oven, the Neff N 50 44L Built-In Combi Microwave Oven, and the Neff 60cm 4 Zone Electric Induction Hob.
To start off, we'll be making a classic dish that's perfect for any occasion: Roasted Chicken. This recipe is simple and delicious, and it's sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
Roast Chicken
Ingredients:
- 1 Whole chicken
- Salt
- Pepper
- Olive oil
- 1 lemon (optional)
-
Rosemary, thyme, sage (optional)
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 190°C.
-
Season the chicken generously with salt and pepper. Stuff the cavity of the chicken with 2 lemon halves. You can also add some herbs, such as thyme, sage or rosemary, for extra flavour.
- Drizzle the chicken with olive oil and rub it all over to evenly coat the skin.
- Place the chicken in the preheated oven on a rack or a roasting pan.
- Roast the chicken for about 70-80 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 74°C when measured with a meat thermometer. The cooking time will vary depending on the weight of your chicken when raw.
- Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before carving and serving.
While the chicken is roasting, we can make a side dish to go with it like roasted vegetables.
Oven Roasted Vegetables
Ingredients:
- Carrots
- Courgette
- Bell peppers
- Red onion
- Olive oil
- 3 crushed garlic cloves

- Season the vegetables with salt and pepper and crushed garlic
- Spread the vegetables on a baking sheet
- Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat
- Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until tender and slightly caramelized
Once the chicken has finished cooking, remove the roasting tray from the oven. You can transfer the chicken to a chopping board, be sure to empty the cavity of juices and remove the lemon halves if used. Now it's time to make the gravy!
The Perfect Chicken Gravy
