Provided by Giada De Laurentiis

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 garlic cloves, chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 (4-pound) whole chicken, cut into pieces (giblets, neck and backbone reserved for another use)
1/2 cup low-salt chicken broth
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley leaves

Steps:

  • Whisk the vinegar, mustard, lemon juice, garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper in small bowl to blend. Combine the vinaigrette and chicken pieces in a large resealable plastic bag; seal the bag and toss to coat. Refrigerate, turning the chicken pieces occasionally, for at least 2 hours and up to 1 day.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Remove chicken from the bag and arrange the chicken pieces on a large greased baking dish. Roast until the chicken is just cooked through, about 1 hour. If your chicken browns too quickly, cover it with foil for the remaining cooking time. Transfer the chicken to a serving platter. Place the baking dish on a burner over medium-low heat. Whisk the chicken broth into the pan drippings, scraping up any browned bits on the bottom of the baking sheet with a wooden spoon and mixing them into the broth and pan drippings. Drizzle the pan drippings over the chicken. Sprinkle the lemon zest and parsley over the chicken, and serve.

4 strips thick-cut bacon, chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
1 green bell pepper, stemmed, seeded and chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
16 ounces (about 3 1/2 cups) sweet corn kernels, drained if canned, thawed if frozen
16 ounces (about 3 1/2 cups) cooked lima beans, drained if canned, thawed if frozen
2 cups peeled pearl onions, thawed if frozen
1 teaspoon hot sauce, such as Frank's Red Hot, or to taste
1/2 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crisp, about 5 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer the crisp bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
  • Season the chicken well with salt and pepper and sear in the same skillet, stirring, until the edges begin to brown, about 5 minutes. Add the bell pepper and garlic and cook until softened slightly, about 5 minutes. Add the corn, lima beans, pearl onions, hot sauce, and cream, and cook until simmering. Reduce the heat to medium low and cook until the vegetables are tender and the chicken is cooked through, about 15 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh vegetables, herbs, and chicken will give your dish the best flavor.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken is best when it is cooked through but still tender. Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough.
  • Reduce the balsamic vinegar: Reducing the balsamic vinegar will concentrate its flavor and make it more syrupy. This will help it cling to the chicken and vegetables.
  • Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it is cooked. The vegetables will start to lose their crunch if they sit for too long.

Conclusion:

This chicken with balsamic succotash is a flavorful and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of sweet and savory flavors is sure to please everyone at the table. This recipe can easily be customized to your liking. For example, you could use different vegetables, such as zucchini or bell peppers. You could also add a protein, such as shrimp or tofu. And if you like your food spicy, you could add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes.
