Categories     main-dish

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon canola oil
3/4 cup dry white wine
1/4 cup pitted kalamata olives, halved
2 sprigs fresh thyme
1 head garlic (preferably heirloom; see Cook's Note), separated into cloves and peeled (about 10 cloves)
1 medium shallot, sliced into rings

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Season the chicken with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of pepper. Heat the butter and oil in a large, deep cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add the chicken skin-side down and cook, undisturbed, until deep golden brown, about 5 minutes. Turn the chicken over and turn off the heat. Add the wine, then nestle the olives, thyme, garlic and shallot around the chicken. Return the liquid to a simmer over medium-high heat, then transfer to the oven and roast until the chicken is golden and cooked through, about 1 hour and 15 minutes.
  • Transfer the chicken, garlic and olives to a serving dish with a slotted spoon. Use a ladle to remove as much fat as possible from the surface of the liquid in the skillet, then pour the liquid over the chicken.

BRAISED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH CHILE, CINNAMON, CARDAMOM AND CORIANDER

If you're looking to boost flavor, spices are a natural. There are perhaps no cuisines that use spices more deftly than those of India. Borrowing a technique commonly used there, I sweat a trio of aromatic spices before adding the liquid to a braised chicken-thigh dish. The final flavor of the dish, earthy but somehow still delicate, is wholly satisfying.

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

Scant 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 medium onions, halved and thinly sliced
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
1 tablespoon minced serrano or other fresh chili pepper
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground cardamom
1 teaspoon ground coriander
8 small or 6 large (about 2 1/2 pounds total) bone-in chicken thighs, skin removed
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, more to taste
1 teaspoon black pepper
2 large white potatoes, peeled and cut into large chunks
3/4 cup coconut milk
About 1 cup chicken stock
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a Dutch oven or other large, heavy-bottomed ovenproof pan, heat the oil over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the garlic, ginger and chili, and cook, stirring often, until slightly softened, about 1 minute. Add cinnamon, cardamom and coriander, and cook, stirring constantly, for about 30 seconds.
  • Add chicken to the pot along with the salt, pepper, potatoes, coconut milk and just enough chicken stock to half-cover the thighs and potatoes. Turn heat to high, bring just to a simmer, then cover and put in the oven. Cook until potatoes are tender and chicken thighs are cooked through, 45 minutes to one hour.
  • Use a slotted spoon to transfer the chicken and potatoes to a serving dish. Tent loosely with foil and let rest. Skim as much fat as possible from the surface of the sauce, then return to a simmer over medium-high heat and simmer until slightly thickened, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in the lime juice and cilantro, and adjust seasoning as necessary. Pour the sauce over the chicken and potatoes, and serve.

GARLIC-BRAISED CHICKEN



Garlic-Braised Chicken image

"It's the only place where you can find a giant vat of peeled garlic, because it's the only place that truly understands how much garlic you'll need for the kind of food your people eat," Michelle Zauner writes about the supermarket H Mart in her memoir, "Crying in H Mart." Thankfully, many other grocery stores now sell containers of peeled garlic cloves. If you don't already buy those, then this recipe is a great reason to start. Chicken thighs, white pepper, chardonnay and 20 garlic cloves are all you need for this zinger of a one-pot meal, which braises in an hour. In that time, chicken fat, wine and water turn into a luscious sauce packed with garlicky redolence. The white pepper, musky and full of earthiness, is a key taste here, so don't skip it.

Categories     dinner, easy, weeknight, poultry, main course

Time 1h15m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

Olive oil
2 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (about 4)
Salt
20 peeled garlic cloves
3/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
1 cup dry chardonnay
Steamed white rice, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a large Dutch oven over medium-high, add enough oil to lightly coat the bottom. Season the chicken with salt on both sides, then add to the pot skin side down. Cook until the skin turns golden and crispy, 8 to 10 minutes. If the skin browns too quickly, lower the heat. Flip, and sear the other side briefly, about 1 minute. Transfer the chicken to a plate and set aside.
  • Add the garlic to the schmaltzy oil over medium-high, and stir until fragrant and very lightly golden at the edges, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the white pepper, then immediately add the wine and 1 cup water. Scrape up any stuck-on bits from the bottom of the pot while bringing the liquid to a simmer. Nestle the chicken in the pot skin side up, cover and cook in the oven until the chicken and garlic are meltingly tender, and the wine has reduced, about 1 hour. Taste for seasoning, adding more salt if needed. Serve with rice.
