CORIANDER CHICKEN THIGHS WITH MISO-GLAZED ROOT VEGETABLES



Coriander Chicken Thighs with Miso-Glazed Root Vegetables image

The root vegetables in this dish have a secret umami booster: miso paste. This recipe also offers a delicious way to use those oft-discarded beet and turnip greens. If you can’t find beets or turnips with greens, simply reduce the amount of each vegetable to 1/2 pound.

Categories     Chicken     Bake     Kid-Friendly     Dinner     Carrot     Parsnip     Turnip     Honey     Soy Sauce     Quick and Healthy     Dairy Free     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Kosher     Small Plates

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

8 skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs (about 2 1/2 pounds)
4 tablespoons vegetable oil (such as grapeseed), divided
1 3/4 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, divided
1 tablespoon ground coriander
3 tablespoons white or yellow miso paste
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 teaspoons honey
1 pound total carrots, parsnips, and/or celery root, peeled and cut into 3/4-inch pieces
3/4 pound small-to-medium golden or red beets with fresh greens, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch wedges, greens reserved
3/4 pound small-to-medium turnips with fresh greens, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch wedges, greens reserved
1 medium red onion, peeled, root trimmed, cut lengthwise into 1/2-inch wedges
6 garlic cloves, unpeeled
1 lime, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Set racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven. In a large bowl, pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Add 1 tablespoon oil and toss to coat. Season chicken all over with 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and coriander. Rub in seasoning and set aside at room temperature.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons oil, miso paste, vinegar, soy sauce, honey, and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Add vegetables and garlic cloves to the bowl and toss to coat. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet, place on the upper rack of the oven, and roast until softened and browned, 40 to 45 minutes, tossing a few times during roasting. Peel garlic and discard skins.
  • Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with 1 tablespoon oil. Once hot, add half the chicken thighs skin side down. Cook until skin is golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from skillet and place skin side up on a second rimmed baking sheet. Repeat with remaining chicken thighs, reserving skillet with fat after cooking. Transfer baking sheet to lower rack of oven and roast until the chicken's internal temperature reaches 165°F, 12 to 15 minutes more.
  • Discard stems from reserved beet and turnip greens; wash and roughly chop the leaves. Pour out all but 2 teaspoons of oil from the skillet and place the pan over medium-high heat. Add the greens to the pan with 2 tablespoons water and 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, tossing, until wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer roasted vegetables to a serving bowl, add the sautéed greens, and toss to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning. Serve chicken thighs with vegetables and lime wedges.

FESTIVE HONEY-GLAZED ROASTED ROOT VEGETABLES WITH SAFFRON



Festive Honey-Glazed Roasted Root Vegetables With Saffron image

Roasted parsnips, carrots and pink shallots, glazed with saffron honey and sprinkled with cumin and celery seeds......sublime! These roasted root vegetables are undoubtedly very special, and they are so easy to roast as they require NO par-boiling beforehand. A simple glaze is made by adding saffron to melted honey, before sprinkling cumin and celery seeds over the top......slam them in the oven, and pour yourself a glass of wine! I make these nearly every Christmas and for other special events throughout the year. I have experimented with other vegetables, but have found that this simple combination works the best for optimum flavour and colour, so no need to over gild the lily! Sprinkle them with chopped lovage or parsley before serving. I have indicated amounts per person and not weights....please adjust the quantities to your own requirements.

Categories     Onions

Time 1h10m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 large carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
6 large parsnips, peeled and cut into 2-inch lengths
6 -12 pink shallots, peeled and halved if very large
1 -2 tablespoon olive oil
1 -2 tablespoon honey, to taste heated through until runny
3 g powdered saffron or 6 -12 saffron threads, softened in a little warm water
2 teaspoons cumin seeds
2 teaspoons celery seeds
chopped lovage (to garnish) or parsley (to garnish)
sea salt
black pepper

Steps:

  • Pre-heat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas Mark 6.
  • Take a large roasting tray, one that will take the vegetables in one layer, and add the olive oil to it, then heat the oil in the oven for about 5 minutes until very hot.
  • Take the tray out and add the prepared vegetables immediately, tossing them around to get a good coating of oil, put them back in the oven and roast them for 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat up the honey in a small saucepan or in the microwave and add the softened saffron threads or saffron powder - mix well.
  • After 30 minutes, take the vegetables out and add the honey and saffron, pouring over the vegetables and turning them around to make sure that all have an even coating of the mixture.
  • Sprinkle the cumin seeds, celery seeds, sea salt and black pepper to taste over the top and give them a quick mix again, before putting them back into the oven for a further 20 to 30 minutes, or until the vegetables are soft, glazed and tinged brown at the edges.
  • Serve them in an attractive serving bowl and sprinkle with chopped lovage or parsley.
  • I have allowed one of each vegetable per serving, this may be too generous - please adjust the quantities to suit what else you may be serving alongside these vegetables!

CAST IRON HONEY-SRIRACHA GLAZED CHICKEN WITH ROASTED ROOT VEGETABLES



Cast Iron Honey-Sriracha Glazed Chicken with Roasted Root Vegetables image

I combined 3 recipes to create tender juicy chicken with an awesome honey-sriracha glaze. If you've always wanted to cook more stuff with turnips, give this a try. Aside from the delicious sauce, the most important part of this dish is using the high heat of cast iron to brown the chicken and vegetables before finishing in the oven.

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Chicken     Chicken Thigh Recipes

Time 1h23m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 18

4 large chicken thighs with skin
2 tablespoons ground black pepper, divided
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon paprika
1 tablespoon ground cumin
2 teaspoons salt, divided
4 tablespoons peanut oil
5 tablespoons butter
⅓ cup honey
1 tablespoon sriracha sauce
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 teaspoons lime juice
4 potatoes, chopped
2 carrots, chopped
1 large yellow onion, chopped
1 turnip, chopped
1 head garlic, peeled
¾ cup red wine

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Pat chicken dry. Combine 1 tablespoon black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, cumin, and 1 teaspoon salt in a bowl. Rub the mixture on the chicken.
  • Heat a cast iron skillet over high heat. Add peanut oil to the hot skillet and watch it carefully; when oil smokes, add chicken, skin-side down. Cook until browned, about 4 minutes each side. Transfer chicken to a plate; reserve drippings in the skillet.
  • Melt butter in a small saucepan. Add honey, sriracha sauce, soy sauce, and lime juice. Add remaining black pepper and salt. Bring sauce to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes.
  • Return skillet with drippings to medium-high heat. Add potatoes, carrots, onion, turnip, and garlic. Cook and stir until browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat. Add chicken on top of the vegetables, skin-side up. Coat with about a third of the sauce.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Add wine to the skillet and coat chicken with another third of the sauce. Cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the meat near the bone reads 165 degrees F (74 degrees C) and vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes. Coat chicken with remaining sauce before serving.

'RYE-SOTTO' WITH GLAZED ROOT VEGETABLES



'Rye-sotto' with Glazed Root Vegetables image

This 'rye-sotto' is obviously a play on words. The technique used to make this dish is more like making a pilaf than making a true risotto. Rye berries will not release starch like arborio or carnaroli rice, and therefore the slow cooking while stirring constantly method is unnecessary here. I simply simmer the rye berries until tender and make it creamy by folding in the goat cheese.

Categories     100+ Everyday Cooking Recipes     Vegetarian

Time 1h40m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 25

2 quarts vegetable broth
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 yellow onion, diced
4 cloves garlic, minced
4 cups rye berries
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 pound carrots, peeled and cut into obliques
1 pound parsnips, peeled and cut into obliques
1 pound baby turnips, peeled and cut into obliques
1 pound golden beets, peeled and diced
4 sprigs fresh thyme
2 tablespoons sugar
2 bay leaves
10 whole black peppercorns
¼ teaspoon salt
1 quart water, or as needed
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 shallot, minced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (750 milliliter) bottle red wine
4 bunches fresh thyme
1 bay leaf
2 tablespoons honey
salt and ground black pepper to taste
3 ounces chevre (goat cheese)

Steps:

  • Pour vegetable broth into a saucepan and bring to a simmer. Meanwhile, heat oil in a heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and cook until soft and translucent but not browned, about 5 minutes. Add rye berries and stir to coat with oil and toast slightly. Pour in hot vegetable broth, cover pot with a tight-fitting lid, and reduce heat. Simmer until berries are tender, about 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, heat a large saute pan over medium heat. Add carrots, parsnips, turnips, beets, thyme, sugar, bay leaves, peppercorns, and salt. Cover with water to about 1/4 inch above the vegetables. Bring to a simmer and watch carefully; cook until vegetables just tender, 10 to 20 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer vegetables to a bowl. Strain liquid through a mesh strainer to remove herbs and peppercorns and return liquid to the pan over medium heat. Cook liquid until reduced and almost evaporated, 5 to 10 minutes. Return vegetables to the pan and toss in the glaze. Keep warm until ready to use.
  • Heat oil in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Add shallot and garlic and cook briefly, about 1 minute. Add red wine, thyme, and bay leaf and adjust heat to a low simmer. Cook until reduced by half, 10 to 20 minutes. Strain reduction through mesh strainer and discard herbs. Return reduction to the saucepan and add honey to soften the wine and add sheen and color to the final sauce. Heat over medium heat until saucy and flavorful without being harsh, 5 to 10 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Season cooked rye berries with salt and pepper, remove from heat, and set aside. Toss chevre with rye berries at the last minute and adjust seasonings if necessary.
  • Place rye-sotto in a line down the near-center of a serving plate, then spoon vegetables at an askew angle. Drizzle red wine reduction across the top.
