Time 1h25m

Yield 4 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 small onion, thinly sliced
4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme, plus a few sprigs
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup dry white wine
1/4 cup breadcrumbs or matzo meal
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon minced fresh chives
2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and sliced about 1/4 inch thick
1 3/4 cups low-sodium chicken broth

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic, chopped thyme, 1 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the garlic and onion are slightly golden, about 5 minutes. Add the wine and cook until mostly evaporated, about 2 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine the breadcrumbs or matzo meal, parsley, chives, the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl; reserve 2 tablespoons for topping.
  • Arrange one-third of the potatoes over the onion in the skillet. Sprinkle with half of the remaining crumb mixture; top with another layer of potatoes. Repeat with another layer of the crumb mixture and potatoes. Pour the broth on top. Cover, bring to a boil and cook, undisturbed, 5 minutes.
  • Uncover, sprinkle with the reserved crumb mixture, drizzle with olive oil and season with salt. Transfer the skillet to the oven; bake until the potatoes are golden brown and crisp on top, about 45 minutes. Let rest 5 to 10 minutes before serving.

1 pound Yukon gold or red potatoes
1 1/2 cups grated Gruyere

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Butter a 1 1/2-quart shallow baking dish.

CHICKEN AND POTATO GRATIN WITH BROWN BUTTER CREAM



Chicken and Potato Gratin With Brown Butter Cream image

This gratin is decidedly autumnal, inspired by a recipe from one of my favorite food writers, Richard Olney. Olney's chicken gratin calls for making a savory custard, but here you'll combine brown butter and heavy cream with aromatics for a flavorful and easy sauce instead. It's still a luxurious dish. The breadcrumbs for the topping get toasted separately, so they stay crisp and the chicken (ideally seasoned a day in advance so the salt has time to work its way into the meat) and vegetables can get nicely browned and crisp too. I love that this gratin can reinvent itself based on what's available at the market (or in my fridge). In the spring, you might make it with asparagus and young onions; in summer, with tomato wedges, swapping in olive oil for the cream. I recommend serving this fall version with lemon wedges for squeezing over to cut the richness of the dish. A brightly dressed arugula salad would also do the trick.

Categories     Dinner     Casserole/Gratin     Chicken     Potato     Shallot     Butter     Milk/Cream     Garlic     Pepper     Nutmeg     Thyme     Sage     Lemon

Yield 4 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 lb. skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs and drumsticks
7½ tsp. kosher salt, divided
1 lb. small potatoes (such as fingerling or baby Yukon Gold), halved lengthwise
8 oz. small or medium shallots, halved through root ends
5 Tbsp. unsalted butter, divided
¾ cup heavy cream
2 garlic cloves, finely grated
½ tsp. freshly ground black pepper
¼ tsp. freshly grated or ground nutmeg
8 sprigs thyme
8 sage leaves
3½ oz. country-style bread, preferably day-old, torn into large pieces
1 lemon, cut into wedges (optional)

Steps:

  • Season chicken all over with 4 tsp. salt. Place in an airtight container and cover. Chill at least 1 hour and up to 1 day.
  • Place a rack in middle of oven; preheat to 425°F. Toss potatoes, shallots, and 2 tsp. salt in a large bowl.
  • Melt 4 Tbsp. butter in a small saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring often, until butter foams, then browns, 5-8 minutes. Immediately remove from heat (it will continue to darken) and stir in cream, garlic, pepper, nutmeg, and remaining 1½ tsp. salt. Set saucepan over medium-low heat and cook, stirring, until salt is dissolved and mixture is warm to the touch. Stir in thyme and sage; remove from heat.
  • Heat remaining 1 Tbsp. butter in a large stainless-steel skillet over medium-high until melted and bubbling. Working in 2 batches, cook chicken, skin side down, until golden underneath, about 5 minutes. Transfer chicken to a 13x9" or 3-qt. baking dish and arrange skin side up. Set skillet with pan drippings aside. Nestle potatoes and shallots around chicken (don't place on top). Pour brown butter cream over chicken and vegetables, making sure herbs and spices are evenly dispersed and tucking herbs into vegetables so they don't get too crispy when they bake.
  • Bake gratin until cream is mostly reduced and chicken and vegetables are dark golden brown, about 40 minutes. Let gratin cool 5-10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, pulse bread in a food processor until pieces are about oat-size (you should have about 1¼ cups). Toss breadcrumbs in pan drippings in reserved skillet to coat. Cook over medium heat, scraping up browned bits with a spatula, until deep golden brown, 5-7 minutes. Let cool.
  • To serve, top gratin with breadcrumbs. Serve lemon wedges alongside for squeezing over if desired.

JULIA CHILD'S PROVENçAL POTATO GRATIN



Julia Child's Provençal Potato Gratin image

Potatoes aren't usually associated with Provençal cooking, but every French region must have its gratin: sliced potatoes baked into a delicious mass that is the perfect side dish for roasts. The binder can be milk, broth, cream or, as in this case, the natural juices of vegetables like tomatoes and onions. With less liquid, this gratin is more foolproof than most. Anchovies give the dish a South of France funk, but you can leave them and the cheese out to make a vegan gratin.

Categories     casseroles, side dish

Time 1h30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 to 3 onions, thinly sliced (2 heaping cups)
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, more for drizzling
Salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1 1/2 pounds ripe tomatoes, seeded and cut into strips about 3/8-inch wide
1 2-ounce can anchovies packed in olive oil, drained (reserve anchovies and oil separately)
2 large cloves garlic, smashed and peeled
1 tablespoon fresh herbs, such as thyme, oregano or savory, or 1 teaspoon dried herbes de Provence
About 2 pounds thin-skinned, waxy potatoes like Yukon Gold, sliced 1/8-inch thick (6 to 7 cups)
1/2 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano or Gruyère

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees and place a rack at the middle level. In a large saucepan, combine onions and 2 tablespoons olive oil and stir to coat over low heat. Sprinkle lightly with salt. At a gentle simmer, cook uncovered until onions are softened and lightly golden, 10 to 15 minutes, stirring often. Do not brown; lower the heat if necessary. When done, fold in tomatoes just until heated through. Set aside.
  • In a small food processor or a mortar, add the anchovies - anywhere from 6 to 12 fillets, depending on their size and your taste. Add garlic, herbs and a dozen grinds of pepper. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil (or use the oil from the anchovy can, if you like). Crush or pulse together into a chunky paste, thinning with oil as needed to make a loose, fluid mixture.
  • In a medium-size baking dish, spread a quarter of the onion-tomato mixture. On top, arrange half the potato slices, then half the anchovy mixture. Add half the remaining onion-tomato mixture. Build one more layer with remaining potato slices, anchovy mixture and onion-tomato mixture. Sprinkle cheese on top and drizzle with olive oil.
  • If the dish is very full, place on a baking sheet. Transfer to oven and bake, uncovered, until potatoes are tender and have absorbed all of the juices in the bottom of the dish, 40 to 50 minutes. Test by tasting a bit of potato; it should be soft all the way through, with no raw taste. If the top is browning too fast, cover very loosely with a sheet of foil. If the top is not brown enough when the potatoes are cooked, broil briefly until deliciously glazed.
  • Serve gratin hot or warm. Can be cooled and reheated later the same day, but do not refrigerate.

POTATO GRATIN WITH BROTH AND PARMESAN



Potato Gratin With Broth and Parmesan image

This is a simple and delicious Potato Gratin. I usually add some fresh minced herbs such as sage, thyme or parsley. I also never peel my potatoes no matter what potato dish I am making. (Except for gnocchi lol) Prep time is approximate. This is adapted from Cooks Illustrated, Nov. 1995 issue. I hope you enjoy as much as we do!

POTATO GRATIN WITH CHICKEN BROTH, GARLIC AND THYME



Potato Gratin With Chicken Broth, Garlic and Thyme image

Pair your lamb roast with a delicious potato gratin and broiled asparagus.

Provided by Allrecipes

Categories     Potato Side Dishes

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 garlic cloves, peeled
½ cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 ½ teaspoons dried thyme leaves
4 pounds starchy potatoes, such as russets, peeled
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 cups canned or cartoned chicken broth

Steps:

  • Adjust oven rack to lowest position. Heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • With motor running, drop garlic through the feeder tube of a food processor to mince. Scrape down sides of bowl. With motor running, add oil through feeder tube; continue to process. Transfer to a small bowl, stir in thyme and set aside. Switch to the slicing blade and slice the potatoes (or thinly slice them with a knife).
  • Brush a little of the garlic oil over the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch (or similar size) baking dish. Make 4 layers in this order: potatoes, a generous brushing of the oil, a sprinkling of salt and pepper. Slowly add broth at one corner to avoid washing off garlic and herbs.
  • Bake until most of the broth has been absorbed, about 45 minutes. To brown, move pan to middle rack and broil until spotty brown, about 5 minutes.
  • Let rest so potatoes continue to absorb liquid, about 10 minutes. May be made ahead, held at room temperature while roast cooks, then reheated.

Tips:

- For a richer flavor, use chicken broth instead of water. - Add a splash of dry white wine to the broth for an extra layer of flavor. - Don't be afraid to experiment with different cheeses. A combination of Gruyère, Parmesan, and Comté is a classic, but you could also try using Fontina, Jarlsberg, or Gouda. - For a crispy top, sprinkle some bread crumbs on top of the potatoes before baking. - If you're short on time, you can use pre-sliced potatoes from the store. - To make sure the potatoes are cooked through, insert a knife or toothpick into the center of the gratin. It should come out clean when the potatoes are done.

Conclusion:

Potato gratin is a classic French dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a simple weeknight meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With its creamy, cheesy, and garlicky flavor, potato gratin is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
