Pasta With Roast Chicken, Currants and Pine Nuts image

Provided by Julia Moskin

Categories     dinner, pastas, main course

Time 45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 1/2 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs, patted dry
Salt
freshly ground black pepper
Paprika
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/2 pounds dried pasta, preferably bucatini or linguine
2 teaspoons crumbled dried rosemary
1/2 cup dried currants or raisins
2/3 cup pine nuts, toasted
3 tablespoons chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Arrange thighs in a large roasting pan, preferably nonstick. Thickly sprinkle with salt, pepper and paprika, and dot with butter. Bake until just cooked through and skin is crisp (if oven has a convection feature, use it), about 35 minutes.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. When chicken is done, let cool slightly, then use hands (rubber gloves are helpful) to pull meat and skin from bones, making bite-size pieces. Reserve meat and skin in roasting pan; discard bones.
  • Meanwhile, add pasta to boiling water and cook just until tender but not mushy. Reserving 1 cup cooking water, drain pasta and add to roasting pan with chicken meat and skin. Add 1/2 cup pasta cooking water to roasting pan on stovetop and turn heat to low.
  • Add rosemary, currants and pine nuts to roasting pan and toss, adding more salt and black pepper to taste, and more cooking water if mixture seems dry. Sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately in shallow bowls.

CHICKEN BRAISED WITH POTATOES AND PINE NUTS



Chicken Braised With Potatoes and Pine Nuts image

Margot Henderson is the chef at Rochelle Canteen in Shoreditch, where London's cool kids wait hours to score a garden table for lunch. Her food is mainly English classics, but this one-pot meal - more home cooking than hipster - has hints of Spanish and Portuguese flavor. Except for the sherry vinegar, the seasonings here (bay leaves, cloves, saffron) can be adjusted for your taste and the contents of your spice drawer.

Provided by Julia Moskin

Categories     dinner, one pot, poultry, vegetables, main course

Time 1h45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 tablespoons olive oil
6 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
Salt and pepper
2 white or yellow onions, sliced
2 celery stalks, chopped
8 garlic cloves, smashed, peeled and left whole
2/3 cup dry white wine
3 tablespoons sherry vinegar, plus more if needed
3 tablespoons pine nuts
4 dried bay leaves
4 whole cloves (or a pinch of ground cinnamon)
Pinch of saffron (optional)
1 pound baby potatoes, washed and halved
3 ounces kale, stemmed, leaves thinly sliced
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup chopped Italian parsley, plus more for serving

Steps:

  • In a Dutch oven large enough to hold the chicken in one layer, heat the olive oil over high until shimmering. Season chicken pieces on the skin side with salt and pepper, then lay them in the pan, skin-side down. Adjust the heat so they sizzle but do not pop or scorch. Cook until skin is deeply browned and comes away easily from the pan, about 10 minutes. Remove and set aside.
  • Add onions, celery and garlic to the fat in the pot, season with salt and cook, stirring until softened, about 5 minutes, scraping up the browned bits at the bottom of the pan. Deglaze with the wine and vinegar. Stir in 1/2 cup water, pine nuts, bay leaves, cloves and saffron (if using). Return the chicken pieces to the pan, and nestle them into the liquid, skin-side up.
  • Cover tightly and let cook undisturbed over the lowest possible heat until cooked through, about 45 minutes.
  • Add the potatoes, then add more water until the liquid barely covers the potatoes. If in doubt, use less; you can always add more. Cover again and cook another 20 minutes.
  • When ready to serve, gently reheat. Taste the cooking liquid and season with salt, pepper and a drop more vinegar if needed. Stir in the kale and simmer, uncovered, until completely cooked through, about 5 minutes. Stir in butter and parsley and serve, sprinkling each serving with more parsley.

Tips:

- Use a large skillet or wok to ensure that the chicken and vegetables have enough space to cook evenly. - Make sure the chicken is cut into bite-sized pieces for even cooking. - To save time, use store-bought orange juice and chicken broth. - If you don't have pine nuts on hand, you can substitute slivered almonds or chopped walnuts. - Serve the chicken with rice, noodles, or your favorite side dish.

Conclusion:

This orange pine nut chicken recipe is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is packed with flavor. The combination of sweet orange sauce, savory chicken, and crunchy pine nuts makes this dish a hit with the whole family. Plus, it's a healthy meal that's low in calories and fat.
