SKILLET CHICKEN WITH MUSHROOMS AND CARAMELIZED ONIONS



Skillet Chicken With Mushrooms and Caramelized Onions image

This comforting one-pot dinner is reminiscent of a rich French onion soup, but made in less time and with lighter ingredients. Cooking the onions in a hot, dry pan forces them to release their moisture, so that they shrink and become silky and sweet in 30 minutes. Serve everything directly from the pan, with some crusty bread to soak up all the juices, or shred the chicken and pile it on top of buttered noodles. For something green, stir in some spinach to wilt at the end or serve alongside a simple green salad or roasted broccoli.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

5 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons sherry vinegar
2 teaspoons honey
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 3-inch pieces
2 medium yellow onions, thinly sliced (about 4 cups)
3/4 pound cremini mushrooms, stems removed and thinly sliced (about 4 cups)
1/2 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley or dill leaves and fine stems, roughly chopped
1/4 cup grated Parmesan or pecorino (optional)
Bread or cooked pasta, for serving

Steps:

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 tablespoons oil, 2 tablespoons vinegar, the honey, mustard, red-pepper flakes and 1 teaspoon salt; whisk until smooth. Pat the chicken dry and season with salt and pepper, then add to the mixture, coating it well. Set aside at room temperature, stirring it once while you make the onions.
  • Heat a 12-inch cast-iron or heavy skillet over medium-high until very hot, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, then add the onions in an even layer. Season with salt, then cook, mostly undisturbed, for 4 minutes more, stirring every minute or so. Add the mushrooms, season with salt, and stir to combine. (It will look crowded, and that's OK.) Allow to cook mostly undisturbed until the mushrooms shrink and start to brown, about 4 minutes, stirring every minute or so.
  • Stir in the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil and allow the onions to cook until they start to color, stirring and lowering the heat as necessary to avoid burning, about 2 minutes. Push the onions and mushrooms to the edges of the skillet, then add the chicken pieces to the center. Pour any remaining marinade (there will be very little) over the onions and mushrooms. Cook undisturbed for 4 to 5 minutes, then combine the chicken and vegetables and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through, about 10 minutes more. (Reduce the heat to medium if the onions look like they are burning at any point.)
  • Add the remaining 2 teaspoons sherry vinegar, stirring and scraping up anything on the bottom of the skillet. Season to taste with salt.
  • Remove from the heat and top with the parsley and cheese, if using. Serve with bread or pasta.

EASY CREAMY CHICKEN WITH MUSHROOMS AND ONIONS



Easy Creamy Chicken With Mushrooms and Onions image

This is one of those meals I fix when I haven't got much time. It uses ingredients I usually always have at hand. My BF loves it. Serve with pasta, rice or potatoes or just some crusty bread to mop up the sauce. This is enough for two people, but can easily be doubled. Or if you want some greens, just add frozen peas or some steamed broccoli florets for the last few minutes.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients prepped and measured. This will help you stay organized and ensure that you don't forget anything.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your dish will taste. If possible, try to use organic or locally-sourced ingredients.
  • Season Generously: Don't be afraid to season your food well. Salt and pepper are essential, but you can also add other spices and herbs to taste.
  • Don't Overcook the Chicken Livers: Chicken livers are very delicate and can easily become overcooked. Cook them over medium heat until they are just cooked through, about 5 minutes per side.

  • Use a Good Quality Balsamic Vinegar: Balsamic vinegar is a key ingredient in this dish, so make sure you use a good quality one. Look for a vinegar that is aged for at least 12 years.
