Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 cloves garlic
1 tablespoon minced fresh thyme leaves
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cups panko (Japanese bread flakes)
1 tablespoon grated lemon zest (2 lemons)
2 tablespoons good olive oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup Dijon mustard, such as Grey Poupon
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 (3 1/2- to 4-pound) chicken, cut in eighths

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Place the garlic, thyme, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper in a food processor fitted with the steel blade and process until the garlic is finely minced. Add the panko, lemon zest, olive oil, and butter and pulse a few times to moisten the bread flakes. Pour the mixture onto a large plate. In a shallow bowl, whisk together the mustard and wine.
  • Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Sprinkle generously all over with salt and pepper. Dip each piece in the mustard mixture to coat on all sides, and then place skin-side down only into the crumb mixture, pressing gently to make the crumbs adhere. Place the chicken on a sheet pan crumb-side up. Press the remaining crumbs on the chicken pieces.
  • Bake the chicken for 40 minutes. Raise the heat to 400 degrees F and bake for another 10 minutes, until the crumbs are browned and the chicken is cooked through. Serve hot, warm, or at room temperature.

BRAISED CHICKEN WITH LEMON AND OLIVES



Braised Chicken With Lemon and Olives image

A good cook needs an assortment of chicken dishes to fall back on. Aside from roasting or frying (and in addition to grilling), braising chicken is a simple technique to master. Chicken thighs make the best braises; use skin-on bone-in thighs for the best flavor. Though it could be done on the stovetop, this dish is oven-braised. Here are more recipes using chicken thighs.

Categories     dinner, lunch, roasts, main course

Time 1h45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 chicken thighs, skin-on and bone-in, about 3 1/2 pounds
Salt and pepper
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
6 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon crushed fennel seeds
1 tablespoon roughly chopped rosemary
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 Meyer lemons, cut in wedges
1 cup flavorful olives with pits, a mixture of black and green, about 1 pound
1 cup chicken broth
3 tablespoons chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Season well with salt and pepper and place in an earthenware baking dish in one layer, skin side up. Sprinkle with red pepper, garlic, fennel and rosemary and drizzle with olive oil. Rub seasoning into thighs on all sides. Tuck lemon wedges here and there. Let marinate for 15 minutes. Heat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Put baking dish in oven, uncovered, and roast until skin browns lightly, about 20 minutes. Scatter olives evenly over chicken and add broth. Cover tightly and bake for 1 hour, until meat is very tender when probed with a skewer.
  • Remove thighs and lemon wedges and arrange on a platter. Keep warm. Pour pan juices into a saucepan and quickly skim fat from surface. Over high heat, simmer rapidly until reduced by half. Spoon juices over chicken, sprinkle with parsley and serve.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Chicken

Time 1h25m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 large onion, cut into 1/4-inch rounds
2 sweet potatoes, cut into 1/4-inch rounds
12 ounces brussels sprouts, trimmed
9 thyme sprigs
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1 whole chicken (3 1/2 pounds), room temperature, patted dry
2 lemons, pricked all over with a fork, plus wedges for serving
1/4 cup Dijon mustard

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss onion, sweet potatoes, brussels sprouts, and 3 thyme sprigs with 2 tablespoons oil. Season with salt and pepper; spread in a single layer. Season chicken cavity with salt and pepper, then stuff with lemons and remaining 6 thyme sprigs.

Carve chicken and serve, with vegetables and lemon wedges alongside.

ROAST CHICKEN WITH APRICOTS AND OLIVES



Roast Chicken With Apricots and Olives image

This festive dish is a fairly easy main course for the Seder meal - or anytime. Marinating overnight leaves very little work on the day of serving, but two hours is enough to infuse the chicken with tangy citrus and the sumac. Dried apricots, already more tart than sweet, are marinated along with the chicken and become almost savory in the oven. Using pitted Castelvetrano olives will save you a lot of elbow grease, and their meaty texture and mild flavor are perfect here. After roasting together, everything goes under the broiler to deeply brown and thicken the cooking juices into a tasty sauce.

Categories     dinner, poultry, main course

Time 3h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 1/2 to 4 pounds bone-in chicken pieces (see Note)
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice, plus 1 lemon, sliced and seeded
1/4 cup fresh blood orange or regular orange juice
1/4 cup honey
4 to 6 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
3/4 teaspoon dried thyme
3 tablespoons ground sumac
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup (6 ounces) dried apricots
1 cup (4 ounces) pitted Castelvetrano olives with 2 tablespoons brine
4 large or 8 small shallots, roots trimmed, peeled and cut lengthwise into quarters or halves
1/4 cup dry white wine

Steps:

  • Slash each piece of chicken through the skin a few times, about 1 inch deep. Season with the salt and pepper and place in a large bowl or large resealable plastic bag. Whisk lemon juice, orange juice, honey, garlic, thyme, sumac and 3 tablespoons olive oil in a bowl to combine. Add lemon slices, apricots, olives and olive brine. Pour the marinade over the chicken and cover tightly or remove as much air as possible before sealing it. Set on a small sheet pan and refrigerate for at least 2 hours and up to 24 hours, turning the bag from time to time.
  • Position a rack 8 inches from the broiler heat source. Place an oven rack in the lower third of the oven and heat oven to 450 degrees. Toss shallots with remaining tablespoon oil and spread out on a large sheet pan, cut sides down. Place on the lower rack and cook, turning once, until starting to turn golden, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Remove the pan from the oven and use your hands and a slotted spoon to scoop the chicken, apricots, lemon slices and olives onto the pan, reserving the marinade. Arrange in an even layer with the chicken skin side up and return to the oven. Cook for 15 minutes, baste the chicken with the drippings, and cook until chicken juices run clear, about 10 minutes longer. Remove the pan from the oven. Heat the broiler to high.
  • Pour the reserved marinade and wine over the chicken, and broil until the chicken is browned and the liquid is thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. If the apricots start to get too dark, turn them over in the sauce. Transfer to a platter. If you used chicken breasts, cut them in half. Pour the sauce over everything or serve it on the side.

ROAST CHICKEN WITH OLIVES, GARLIC, AND THYME



Roast Chicken With Olives, Garlic, and Thyme image

Note: The vinaigrette and this dish can be made with rosemary instead of thyme, and orange zest instead of lemon.

Provided by JackieOhNo

Categories     Whole Chicken

Time 2h15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (from 1 to 2 lemons)
1 teaspoon honey
1 small shallot, minced
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
3 1/2 lbs chicken, cut into pieces
3/4 cup basic vinaigrette
1 lemon, zest of, slivered
1 cup oil-cured black olive, pitted
5 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 small bunch fresh thyme
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Make vinaigrette: Whisk together the lemon juice, honey, and shallot in a small bowl. Slowly add the oil in a thin stream, whisking constantly until emulsified. Season with the salt and pepper.
  • Make chicken: Rinse the chicken pieces under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Place in a baking dish large enough to hold the pieces in a single layer.
  • In a small bowl, combine the vinaigrette with the lemon zest, olives, garlic, thyme, and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt. Pour the mixture over the chicken and turn to coat. Refrigerate, covered, for at least 1 hour or overnight.
  • Heat oven to 425°F Season the chicken with the pepper and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Roast until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Reduce heat to 375°F Continue to roast until the chicken is cooked through, about 40 minutes more.
  • Spoon the olives and pan juices over the chicken and serve.

Tips:

  • To ensure even cooking, truss the chicken before roasting. This will help the chicken retain its shape and cook evenly.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken. The chicken is done when the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  • Let the chicken rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.
  • For the green salad, use a variety of greens such as romaine lettuce, arugula, and spinach. Add some chopped vegetables like tomatoes, cucumbers, and red onions for extra flavor and texture.
  • Make sure to use a good quality olive oil for the dressing. Extra virgin olive oil has a richer flavor and aroma.
  • If you don't have any olives, you can substitute another salty ingredient such as feta cheese or croutons.

Conclusion:

This roast chicken with mustard-thyme sauce and green salad with olives is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion. The chicken is juicy and flavorful, and the sauce is rich and creamy. The green salad is a refreshing and light side dish that complements the chicken perfectly. With a little planning and preparation, you can have this delicious meal on the table in under an hour.
