ROAST CHICKEN WITH ONIONS AND PARSLEY



Roast Chicken With Onions And Parsley image

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     dinner, roasts, main course

Time 1h30m

Yield 6 servings or more

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 cups chopped fresh parsley or chervil leaves
1 teaspoon chopped garlic
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 large chicken or capon, about 6 pounds, trimmed of excess fat
3 tablespoons butter or extra virgin olive oil
3 cups thinly sliced onions
1 cup chicken or vegetable stock or water

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 500 degrees. Combine the lemon juice, 1/2 cup parsley, garlic and some salt and pepper, and rub this mixture all over the chicken. Put the chicken, breast side down, on a rack in a roasting pan and put the pan in the oven.
  • While it's roasting, melt the butter or heat the olive oil in a medium skillet or saucepan over medium heat, then add the onions; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in the remaining parsley and the stock.
  • After the chicken has roasted for about 20 minutes, spoon some of the onion mixture over it, then turn the bird breast side up. Top with more of the onion mixture, leaving some in the saucepan. Baste again after 10 minutes; at this point the breast should be beginning to brown (if it isn't, roast a few more minutes). Turn the heat down to 325 degrees, baste again, and roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh reads 155 to 165 degrees. Total roasting time will be about an hour and a half.
  • Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, pour some or all of the pan juices into the saucepan with the remaining onion mixture and bring to a boil; reduce slightly if the mixture is thin. Carve the chicken and serve with the sauce.

8 pieces chicken, skin on (such as thighs, breasts)
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons olive oil
6 slices streaky bacon, chopped

Baked Chicken Thighs with Mushrooms and Onions image

Chicken thighs are so versatile and healthy. This delicious main dish can be ready in just about 35 minutes. To complete the menu, serve with roasted potatoes and green beans, or a salad.

Provided by Bibi

Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 ½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
8 ounces white mushrooms, sliced
4 cloves garlic, smashed
1 teaspoon herbes de Provence
1 medium onion, sliced horizontally into 6 slices
½ cup dry white wine
snipped fresh chives or parsley for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Pat thighs dry with paper towels. Combine garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Sprinkle seasoning on both sides of the chicken thighs.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a 12-inch nonstick oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Swirl the pan to coat the bottom with the hot oil. Place seasoned thighs in the skillet and cook until browned, about 3 minutes. Turn thighs and brown the other side, about 2 minutes. Transfer browned thighs to a plate and keep warm.
  • Add remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to the same skillet. Add mushrooms; cook and stir for about 2 minutes. Add smashed garlic cloves and herbes de Provence; cook and stir for 1 more minute.
  • Move mushrooms to one side of the skillet and place 3 onion slices into the skillet. Place a browned chicken thigh on top of each onion slice. Move mushrooms to create an empty space in the skillet, and place the remaining onion slices and chicken thighs in the skillet.
  • When all the onion slices and chicken thighs are placed, redistribute the mushrooms evenly around the skillet. Pour white wine over all and cover.
  • Transfer skillet to the preheated oven and bake until chicken thighs are no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Serve each chicken piece with a slice of the cooked onion and some mushrooms. Garnish with snipped chives or parsley.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken. Bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs or breasts work best for this recipe. The bones and skin add flavor to the dish, and the chicken will stay moist and juicy as it cooks.
  • Use a large skillet. You want to make sure the chicken has enough room to brown properly. If you don't have a large skillet, you can cook the chicken in batches.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet. If you overcrowd the skillet, the chicken will steam instead of brown. Make sure there is enough space between the pieces of chicken so that they can brown evenly.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat. Medium heat will help the chicken brown evenly without burning. If you cook the chicken over too high heat, it will burn on the outside and be raw on the inside.
  • Don't stir the chicken too often. Stirring the chicken too often will prevent it from browning properly. Let the chicken cook undisturbed for a few minutes at a time, then stir it gently to ensure that it cooks evenly.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken. The chicken is done cooking when the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the chicken rest before serving. Letting the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.

Conclusion:

This recipe for chicken with onions and garlic is a simple but delicious dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is tender and juicy, and the onions and garlic add a flavorful punch. Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad. This recipe is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
