Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon olive oil
6 (4 ounce) bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt, divided
¾ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
⅔ cup finely chopped yellow onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 ½ cups uncooked long-grain rice
3 cups chicken stock, divided, or more to taste
1 tablespoon finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
1 medium lemon, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Heat oil in large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sprinkle chicken thighs evenly with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
  • Place chicken skin-side down in the Dutch oven; cook undisturbed until golden crisp and easily released from the bottom, about 5 minutes. Flip chicken and cook for 3 minutes more. Transfer to a plate and set aside. Chicken will not be cooked through at this point.
  • Add butter to the drippings and melt. Add onion and cook, stirring often, until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add garlic; cook for 1 minute. Add rice; cook, stirring to coat grains in drippings and lightly toast, about 1 minute. Stir in 3 cups stock and remaining salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Use a wooden spoon to scrape any browned bits from the bottom of the Dutch oven. Place the chicken thighs over the rice.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until all liquid has been absorbed and chicken is cooked through, 45 to 55 minutes. Add remaining stock if liquid is absorbed before rice and chicken are cooked through. Sprinkle with parsley and squeeze lemon juice over the top.

Rice cereal is not just for breakfast. It also happens to be a great coating for fried chicken. (Just make sure you don't buy the frosted rice cereal.)

Provided by Kardea Brown

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Vegetable or peanut oil, for frying
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon Miss Brown's House Seasoning, recipe follows
1/2 cup whole milk
3 large eggs
4 cups crispy rice cereal, coarsely crushed
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 chicken drumsticks (about 2 1/2 pounds)
1 teaspoon garlic powder

Whisk together the milk and eggs in a separate shallow dish. Place the crushed cereal in a third shallow dish. Season the cereal with salt and pepper.

  • Stir together the garlic and onion powders, paprika, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Store in an airtight container.

CHICKEN WITH CRISPY RICE



Chicken with Crispy Rice image

Poaching chicken in a ginger-scallion broth not only flavors the meat, it leaves you with flavorful stock and rendered fat for crisping up fluffy white rice.

Provided by Carla Lalli Music

Categories     Bon Appétit     Chicken     Rice     Avocado     Poach     Dinner     Lunch     Ginger     Basil     Green Onion/Scallion

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 skin-on, bone-in chicken breasts
2 chicken legs (thigh and drumstick)
2 bunches scallions
1 (2-inch) piece fresh ginger
2 medium shallots
1 teaspoon black peppercorns
1 bunch Thai basil or regular basil
2 cups sushi rice
1-2 tablespoons vegetable oil (optional)
Sliced avocado, lime wedges, hot sauce, soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, and/or black vinegar (for serving)

Steps:

  • Place chicken and 12 cups water in a large pot. Cut green tops from scallions; add to pot. Cut a small nub off ginger; set aside. Cut remaining ginger into quarters (do not peel) and halve shallots; toss ginger, shallots, and peppercorns into pot. Set aside a handful of basil and submerge the rest in pot; bring to a boil. As liquid heats, skim off any foam, but try not to remove too much fat (you'll use it later). As soon as liquid is boiling, reduce heat and gently simmer until chicken is cooked through, about 15 minutes for legs and 20 minutes for breasts (an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a piece should register 155°F; temperature will continue to rise off heat). Transfer to a plate; let cool.
  • Meanwhile, strain stock into a large bowl (you'll have about 10 cups). Use a large spoon or ladle to skim off any fat from surface into a small bowl; set aside. Measure out 2 1/2 cups stock. Reserve remaining stock for another use.
  • Rinse rice in a sieve, stirring with your fingers until liquid runs mostly clear. Shake off excess water and transfer to a medium nonstick skillet. Add reserved 2 1/2 cups stock and bring to a boil over medium-high, about 4 minutes. Reduce heat, cover skillet, and simmer until rice is tender and liquid is mostly absorbed, 8-10 minutes.
  • Drizzle reserved chicken fat around edge of pan (do not stir). Increase heat to medium-high and cook rice, uncovered, until underside is golden and crisp, 10-12 minutes. If pan seems dry, drizzle vegetable oil around edge of rice as needed. The goal is an evenly browned bottom with tender rice on top.
  • While rice is crisping, cut scallion whites into thin rounds and finely grate remaining piece of ginger.
  • Pull chicken meat off bones and shred; discard skin and bones. Divide rice and chicken among bowls; add some avocado, scallions, grated ginger, and reserved basil to each. Serve with lime wedges, hot sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, and vinegar as desired.

Tips:

  • To make the crispy rice, use day-old rice. This will help the rice grains to stay separate and crispy.
  • Be sure to rinse the rice thoroughly before cooking it. This will remove any excess starch, which can make the rice gummy.
  • When cooking the rice, use a 1:1 ratio of rice to water. This will result in fluffy, tender rice.
  • Once the rice is cooked, spread it out on a baking sheet and let it cool completely. This will help to prevent the rice from sticking together.
  • When frying the rice, be sure to use a large skillet or wok. This will allow the rice to spread out and cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet or wok with rice. This will make it difficult for the rice to cook evenly and become crispy.
  • Use a high heat when frying the rice. This will help to create a crispy texture.
  • Stir the rice constantly while frying. This will help to prevent the rice from burning.
  • Season the rice to taste with salt, pepper, and other spices.
  • Serve the crispy rice immediately, while it is still hot and crispy.
