Delicious! Yummy caramelized legs, kids love these! So quick and easy and no marinating required. Just prepare the sauce, pour over the chicken and pop in the oven! I actually like this with wings better ;-) VERY IMPORTANT TO LEAVE IT IN THE OVEN UNTIL IT HAS CARAMELIZED TO AVOID DISAPPOINTMENT. Thank you to everyone for their positive reviews! Try adding Sambal Oelek as Chef #27416 has suggested in his review. What a great idea ;-)

Sounds good for an appetizer; recieved in an email *10/24/13- made with white rice. I reserved 1/3 of the sauce and in the last 15 minutes I drained all the sauce/juices from the pan and poured the reserved sauce over the wings and continued cooking; next time I will add some cornstarch and cook to reduce down and then add (per gailanng review) to get a nice glaze.*

Baked Chicken With Grilled Feta and Caramelized Onions image

This is a mixture of several recipes I've seen on this website, thanks to all the chefs who posted chicken recipes. The caramelized onions are and adaptation on someone else's onions, but I can't remember who right now (do tell if you know who you are).

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 50m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 small onion
3 chicken breast fillets
1/2 cup feta cheese, drained and crumbled
2 tablespoons flour
4 tablespoons dried rosemary (or 2 fresh if you are lucky enough to have it fresh)
2 teaspoons salt
15 black peppercorns
10 white peppercorns
50 g butter
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup very hot water
1 chicken stock cube (or use vegetable stock if you have it)
2 dashes Tabasco sauce
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon sherry wine vinegar (or red wine vinegar)
1 teaspoon brown sugar

Steps:

  • Wash chicken breast fillets and pat dry, cut in half.
  • In a small pan heat butter and oil till liquid, set aside.
  • Take a large, heavy based, frying pan, heat and add 2 tbsp fat.
  • Fry chicken on a high heat until it has turned from its original rosy colour to white on both sides, remove from pan immediately, conserve the fat.
  • With a mortar and pestle take the rosemary, the salt, both types of peppercorns and the flour and crush everything together so you have a fine powder with a few sprigs of rosemary remaining, set aside.
  • Take the hot water and add the stock cube (use stock if you have any left from another day), add Tabasco, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, vinager and sugar set aside.
  • Heat oven to 350°F and place the remaining fat in an earthenware dish in the oven on a high shelf.
  • Re-heat the fat in the frying pan and when hot fry the onions on a medium heat until they "relax".
  • Turn the heat up to high and add 1/4 of the liquid, reduce until there is no liquid left, add another 1/4 of the liquid and repeat the process, finally add the remaining liquid and reduce again until all the liquid has evaporated, leave on a low heat for another 5 minutes, cover and set aside.
  • Take fried chicken and sprinkle with the flour mixture on one side.
  • Take the earthenware dish out of the oven and place the dusted side down in the fat, sprinkle the remaining mixture over the chicken.
  • Bake for 15 minutes (turn halfway).
  • Take crumbled feta cheese and crumble over the chicken.
  • Grill until the feta cheese has "set", so that its dry and slightly golden (feta does NOT melt, so don't sit around waiting for it to melt 'cus you'll get a very dry chicken).
  • To serve: re-heat the onions that have been steeping in their juices, and set up 3 pieces of chicken each with a"dollop" of onions in the centre.
  • Garnish with a sprig of rosemary (if you must garnish things).
