Crispy Chicken Breasts with Chermoula and Escarole Recipe - (4.7/5) image

Provided by garciamoss

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
2 large skin-on, bone-in chicken breasts, bones removed (1 1/2-2 lb.)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cloves garlic finely chopped
1 teaspoon coriander seeds, chopped
1 teaspoon cumin seeds, chopped
1/2 teaspoon hot smoked paprika
1 medium shallot, sliced into rings
1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves with tender stems
2 tablespoons (or more) fresh lemon juice
1/2 head escarole, torn into pieces

Steps:

  • Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper and cook, skin side down, until golden brown, 10-12 minutes. Turn and cook until cooked through, 5-8 minutes longer. Transfer to a plate; reserve skillet. Wipe out skillet and heat remaining 3 Tbsp. oil over medium heat. Add garlic, coriander, cumin, and paprika. Cook, stirring occasionally, until garlic is softened and spices are fragrant, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat, add shallot, and toss to coat; season with salt and pepper. Combine cilantro, lemon juice, and 2 Tbsp. garlic-shallot mixture in a large bowl; season chermoula with salt and pepper. Add escarole and toss to coat. Slice chicken and arrange on top. Spoon remaining garlic-shallot mixture over and drizzle with more lemon juice, if desired.

I thought the chicken was a bit bland, but the escarole salad was very good.

This was my first time making chermoula and it was a success! The chicken was moist and flavorful, and the sauce was delicious. I will definitely be making this again.

The chicken was a little dry, but the chermoula sauce was delicious. I would try this recipe again, but I would marinate the chicken for longer next time.

This chicken dish was a hit with my family! The chermoula marinade added a delicious flavor to the chicken, and the escarole provided a nice, bitter contrast. I will definitely be making this again!
