Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 medium bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (2 1/4 pounds)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Good olive oil
2 cups halved and thinly sliced yellow onions (2 onions)
2 tablespoons dry white wine
8 ounces creme fraiche
1 tablespoon good Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon whole-grain mustard
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Place the chicken thighs on a cutting board, skin side up, and pat them dry with paper towels. Sprinkle the chicken with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 3/4 teaspoon pepper. Turn them over and sprinkle them with one more teaspoon of salt.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large (11 to 12-inch) cast-iron skillet over medium heat. When the oil is hot, place the chicken in the pan in one layer, skin side down. Cook over medium heat for 15 minutes without moving, until the skin is golden brown. (If the skin gets too dark, turn the heat to medium low.) Turn the chicken pieces with tongs, add the onions to the pan, including under the chicken, and cook over medium heat for 15 minutes, stirring the onions occasionally, until the thighs are cooked to 155 to 160 degrees and the onions are browned. Transfer the chicken (not the onions) to a plate and allow to rest uncovered while you make the sauce. If the onions aren't browned, cook them for another minute.
  • Add the wine, creme fraiche, Dijon mustard, whole-grain mustard, and 1 teaspoon salt to the skillet and stir over medium heat for one minute. Return the chicken, skin side up, and the juices to the skillet, sprinkle with parsley, and serve hot.

My husband says this dish is sweet and a little bit sassy, just like me. I like to use Granny Smith apples for a bit of tartness. Winesaps are great for this dish, too. -Linda Cifuentes, Mahomet, Illinois

Time 1h45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 ½ cups apple cider
¼ cup stone-ground mustard
1 teaspoon freeze-dried dill
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
2 pounds skin-on chicken thighs
8 ounces baby carrots
½ medium head cabbage, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Whisk apple cider, mustard, dill, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Add chicken thighs and stir until evenly coated. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Remove chicken from the refrigerator.
  • Transfer chicken to a plate and pour marinade into a large skillet. Add carrots and cabbage and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat, cover, and cook until carrots have softened, about 30 minutes.
  • While carrots and cabbage are cooking, place chicken thighs on the preheated grill and cook until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes, flipping halfway through the cook time. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Transfer chicken to a serving plate and let rest for 5 minutes. Serve with carrots and cabbage.

Tips:

  • To ensure your chicken thighs are evenly cooked, make sure they are all roughly the same size. If you have a mix of large and small thighs, cook the larger ones for a few minutes longer.
  • For a more flavorful sauce, use a dry white wine that has a bit of acidity, such as Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio. Avoid using a sweet white wine, as it will make the sauce too cloying.
  • If you don't have heavy cream on hand, you can substitute milk or yogurt. However, the sauce will be thinner and less rich.
  • To make sure the apples hold their shape in the sauce, choose a firm variety, such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp.
  • Serve the chicken and apples over rice, mashed potatoes, or noodles for a complete meal.

Conclusion:

This Mustard Chicken Thighs and Apples in White Wine and Cream Sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is tender and flavorful, the apples are tart and sweet, and the sauce is rich and creamy. Serve it over rice, mashed potatoes, or noodles for a complete meal that the whole family will enjoy.
