BEER BRAISED CHICKEN, SAUSAGE AND ONIONS
This is simple comfort food. And the best part it takes no time and is very easy. Just slow cooked on your stove or you can finish in the oven which I do in my cast iron skillet. It is just chicken sausage links and onions ...slow cooking. Serve this with some roasted potatoes that I slightly mash in a big bowl, topped with the chicken, sausage, onions and juice and some crunchy bread to soak up all the juices. What more could you want. NOTE: I use chicken thighs and chicken breasts ... but if you want to use a whole cut up chicken, that is fine. You can you any combination you want. I prefer bone in skin on but you can use whatever you enjoy best.

Steps:
- Chicken -- I like rub the chicken with 1 tablespoon olive oil and then coat with the salt, pepper, and allspice.
- Saute -- Then in a large dutch oven (I happen to have a deep cast iron skillet) but I like to transfer to the oven, so use something deep for either the stove or something you can transfer to the oven to finish cooking. Add the oil and cook 1/2 of the chicken skin side down on medium high heat. Remove and set to the side and then cook the other 1/2. You don't want to crowd the pan as they cook. You just want to cook the chicken until all the skin and chicken is golden brown. Then lastly add the sausage pieces and once again, cook until golden brown and remove to the plate with the chicken.
- Onions -- Add the onions to the pot (on medium high) and saute a few minutes, 3-4 is all they take until they soften. Then stir in the brown sugar and reduce to medium low and cover until golden brown, stirring occasionally. This will take about 5-8 minutes.
- Sauce -- Add in the flour and cook 1 minute to mix in with the onions and then add the bay leaf, mustard, broth, and beer and bring to a boil. Reduce to low and arrange the chicken in pot in one layer. Don't forget to pour in any juices from the plate too. Good Stuff! Now if you can, transfer to the oven and cook at 375 uncovered, or you can continue to cook on the stove top on low to medium low also uncovered, but the oven to me gives it a better taste. It takes about 40 minutes until the chicken is falling all the bone.
- Serving -- I like to take some roasted potatoes and put in the bottom of a bowl and slightly mash with a small fork. Then top with the chicken pieces and some of the sausage and onions and juice. A nice slice of toasted bread and a small salad. How much more comfort food can you get.

BEER BRAISED ONIONS
These onions are great with burgers (try it with my recipe #309195).They can be cooked ahead, cooled and kept in the fridge. When you need them, simmer them gently. When they are hot, add a splash of beer to perk up the flavour.

Steps:
- 1. Prick each sausage a half-dozen times with a needle or pin stuck in a cork. Arrange the onion slices on the bottom of a sauté pan just large enough to hold all the sausages. Place the sausages on top and add beer and water to cover (the ratio should be about 3 parts beer to 1 part water). Place the pan over medium heat and gradually bring the liquid to a simmer, not a rapid boil. Poach the sausages until half-cooked, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer the sausages to a rack on a baking sheet to drain or drain in a colander. Separate the sausages into links.
- 2. Set up the grill for direct grilling and preheat to medium-high.
- 3. When ready to cook, brush and oil the grill grate. Lightly brush the sausages on all sides with oil and place on the hot grate. Grill until the casings are crisp and nicely browned and the sausages are cooked through, 4 to 6 minutes per side. You may want to rotate the sausages 90 degrees after 2 minutes on each side to create an attractive crosshatch of grill marks. Should flare-ups arise, move the sausages to a different section of the grill. Use a slender metal skewer to test for doneness. Insert it into the center of one of the sausages: It should come out hot to the touch.
- 4. Transfer the sausages to plates or a platter and let rest for 3 minutes. Serve with plenty of mustard.
- Variations: Poaching is optional and not every grill jockey does it. If you omit the poaching, you'll need to grill the sausages 7 to 10 minutes per side.
- For absolutely foolproof sausage grilling, use the indirect method. The sausages will be fully cooked in about 30 minutes.
Tips:
- Choose the right beer: Use a beer that you enjoy drinking, as the flavor will come through in the dish. A dark beer, such as a stout or porter, will give the dish a richer flavor, while a light beer, such as a lager or pilsner, will give it a more delicate flavor.
- Brown the chicken and sausage before braising: This will help to develop their flavor and give the dish a nice color.
- Use a variety of vegetables: This will add flavor and texture to the dish. Some good options include onions, carrots, celery, and potatoes.
- Season the dish well: Use a combination of salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. Some good options include garlic powder, onion powder, and dried thyme.
- Cook the dish low and slow: This will help to tenderize the chicken and sausage and allow the flavors to meld together.
- Serve the dish with your favorite sides: Some good options include mashed potatoes, rice, or roasted vegetables.
Conclusion:
Beer-braised chicken and sausage is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken or sausage. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a flavorful and hearty dish that the whole family will enjoy.
