BRAISED CHICKEN WITH ARTICHOKES AND OLIVES



Braised Chicken With Artichokes and Olives image

Imbued with the classic Mediterranean flavors of artichokes, garlic, mint and olives, this braised chicken is complex and highly satisfying, with a white wine sauce brightened with lemon. Fresh artichokes have the most pronounced character and meatiest texture, but if you can't get them or don't want to go to the trouble of cleaning them, you can substitute frozen artichoke hearts (you'll need a 9- or 10-once package). Serve this with crusty bread for sauce-mopping.

Categories     one pot, main course

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/2 lemons
3 medium artichokes, about 1 1/2 pounds
3 1/2 pounds bone-in chicken pieces
2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 teaspoons black pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, more as needed
4 garlic cloves, smashed and peeled
1 1/2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
Pinch red pepper flakes
3/4 cup dry white wine
1/3 cup pitted olives, halved (use black, green or a mix)
2 large rosemary branches
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
Grated Parmigiano-Reggiano, as needed
Chives or mint leaves, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Squeeze the juice of 1 lemon into a large bowl of water. Discard the outer leaves of each artichoke. As you do so, and as you continue cleaning the artichokes, dip them into the lemon water to stop the cut sides from browning. Use a paring knife to peel the base and stems. Slice off the top third of each artichoke. Slice the artichokes in half lengthwise. Using a teaspoon or grapefruit spoon, scoop out the hairy chokes inside, pulling out any prickly purple leaves as well. Slice each half into three pieces. Put trimmed artichoke pieces in lemon water until needed.
  • Heat oven to 375 degrees. Pat the chicken dry with paper towel and season with salt and pepper. In a large (12-inch) ovenproof skillet with a lid, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken pieces and sear in batches until well browned, 5 to 7 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to a plate.
  • Add artichokes and garlic to pan, adding more oil if needed, and cook, turning occasionally, until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Stir in tomatoes and red pepper flakes; cook 1 minute more.
  • Pour in wine and stir in olives, rosemary branches and grated zest of 1/2 lemon. (Do not discard after zesting.) Return chicken to pan. Bring liquid to a simmer.
  • Cover pan and transfer to oven. Cook until chicken is tender, 30 to 35 minutes. (Check white meat after 25 minutes and remove from oven if done.) Transfer chicken to a plate and place skillet over medium-high heat. Simmer until pan juices thicken and become saucelike, about 3 to 5 minutes. Whisk in butter.
  • Return chicken to pan and sprinkle with cheese. Adjust oven heat to broil and place pan in the oven until cheese is melted and golden, 2 to 3 minutes. (Watch carefully to see that it does not burn.) Squeeze juice of remaining lemon half over pan and serve garnished with chives or mint if you like.

Provided by Tom Kerridge

Categories     Dinner, Lunch, Main course

Time 1h55m

Number Of Ingredients 14

2½kg chicken, jointed (ask your butcher to do this)
8 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
200ml white wine
4 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp thyme leaves
10 ripe plum tomatoes, halved
1 tbsp tomato purée
½ tsp herbes de Provence
1 tbsp fennel seeds
500ml chicken stock
1 celery stick, finely diced
15 button or silverskin onions, or small shallots, peeled
285g jar chargrilled artichoke hearts, drained
100g pitted green olives

Steps:

  • Tip the chicken into a large bowl or dish and add the garlic, wine, 2 tbsp oil and the thyme. Season with 2 tbsp flaky salt and mix well until completely coated. Cover and chill for at least a few hours, but preferably overnight.
  • Heat grill to high. Arrange the plum tomatoes on a tray, cut-side up, drizzle with the remaining 1 tbsp oil and grill for 15 mins, or until charred. Set aside.
  • Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large casserole dish or flameproof roasting tin. Scrape the marinade off the chicken pieces back into the bowl and fry the chicken in batches for about 15 mins until the skin is golden and crisp - watch out, the oil has a tendency to sputter. Remove the chicken from the dish and pour off the oil. Place the dish back on the heat, add the tomato purée and cook for 2 mins, then add the herbs, fennel seeds, remaining marinade and chicken stock. Bring up to the boil, add the grilled tomatoes, then simmer gently for 20 mins.
  • Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 4. Nestle the chicken pieces back into the dish, then stir them in to coat in the sauce. Scatter over the celery, button onions and artichokes. Bring up to a simmer, pop the lid on, then transfer to the oven and cook for 1 hr. Remove the lid and stir in the olives. Season to taste and leave everything to settle for 15 mins before serving straight from the dish.

Artichoke and black olive baked chicken is a delicious and flavorful dish that can be enjoyed by anyone who loves Mediterranean cuisine. This dish is made with juicy chicken breasts that are marinated in a blend of garlic, lemon juice, and olive oil, then baked with a mixture of artichokes, black olives, and tomatoes. The combination of flavors makes this a perfect meal for anyone who enjoys a hearty, flavorful meal.

History

While the exact origin of this recipe is unknown, it is believed to have originated in the Mediterranean region, where olives, artichokes, and tomatoes are commonly used in cooking. These ingredients have been a staple in Mediterranean cuisine for centuries, and have been used in a variety of dishes, from salads to stews and everything in between. The combination of artichokes and black olives in this recipe creates a unique flavor that is both savory and slightly tangy.

Ingredients

The ingredients for this recipe include:
For the marinade:
  • 4 large chicken breasts
  • 4 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1/3 cup of olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon of dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon of salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
For the chicken:
  • 1 can of artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
  • 1/2 cup of pitted black olives, chopped
  • 1/2 cup of cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/4 cup of chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil

Preparation

To prepare this dish, begin by marinating the chicken breasts in a mixture of minced garlic, olive oil, fresh lemon juice, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper for at least an hour in the refrigerator. This will allow the flavors to meld together and make the chicken more tender. Once the chicken has marinated, preheat your oven to 375°F. Then, remove the chicken from the marinade and place it in a baking dish. Top the chicken with the chopped artichoke hearts, black olives, and cherry tomatoes, then drizzle with olive oil. Bake the chicken for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender. If you’re unsure whether the chicken is cooked, you can use a meat thermometer to check its internal temperature, which should reach 165°F. Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve with your favorite sides, such as roasted potatoes and steamed vegetables.

Variations

There are a number of variations you can make to this recipe, depending on your preferences and what ingredients you have on hand. For example, you could use green olives instead of black olives, or add some chopped red onion to the vegetable mixture for extra flavor. You could also add some feta cheese or grated Parmesan cheese on top of the chicken before baking for an extra cheesy kick. If you don't have access to fresh artichokes, you can also use canned artichoke hearts. Just be sure to drain and rinse them before using to remove any excess salt. And if you don't have cherry tomatoes, you could use sun-dried tomatoes or canned diced tomatoes instead.

Conclusion

Artichoke and black olive baked chicken is a flavor-packed meal that is both easy to make and delicious to eat. This recipe brings together the best of Mediterranean cuisine, with juicy chicken breasts and a vegetable medley of artichokes, black olives, and tomatoes. If you're looking for a hearty and flavorful meal that will satisfy your cravings, this dish is definitely worth a try.
Artichoke and black olive baked chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weekday dinner or special occasion. When prepared correctly, it is a flavorful and healthy dish that can satisfy even the pickiest of eaters. However, there are a few things to keep in mind when making this dish to ensure that it is truly exceptional. In this article, we will provide valuable tips for making artichoke and black olive baked chicken that is both delicious and healthy.

Tip 1: Choose the Right Chicken

The first and most important tip for making artichoke and black olive baked chicken is to choose the right chicken. When selecting your chicken, look for organic or free-range chicken that is hormone and antibiotic-free. This type of chicken is not only healthier for you and your family, but it also has a richer and more flavorful taste. Additionally, when buying chicken, choose pieces that are similar in size and thickness to ensure even cooking.

Tip 2: Use High-Quality Artichokes and Olives

When making artichoke and black olive baked chicken, it is important to use high-quality artichokes and olives. Look for artichokes that are fresh and firm, with tightly packed leaves and no brown spots. For olives, choose black olives that are cured in oil, rather than vinegar or brine, as they will have a richer and smoother flavor.

Tip 3: Properly Season the Chicken

Proper seasoning is essential to making a delicious artichoke and black olive baked chicken. Begin by seasoning the chicken with salt and pepper, then add herbs and spices such as thyme, oregano, garlic, and lemon zest. If you prefer a spicy flavor, add red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper. Be sure to rub the seasoning mixture all over the chicken, including under the skin and inside the cavity, for a flavorful and aromatic dish.

Tip 4: Layer the Ingredients Properly

Layering the ingredients properly is key to making a delicious artichoke and black olive baked chicken. Begin by lining the bottom of the baking dish with sliced onions or shallots, then add a layer of artichokes and black olives. Place the seasoned chicken on top of the vegetables and drizzle with olive oil. Add another layer of artichokes and black olives around the chicken, then cover the dish with foil or a lid.

Tip 5: Cook at the Right Temperature and Time

Cooking at the right temperature and time is critical to making a delicious artichoke and black olive baked chicken. Preheat the oven to 375°F and bake the chicken for 40 to 50 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Remove the foil or lid for the last 15 minutes of cooking to allow the chicken to brown and crisp up. If the chicken begins to brown too quickly, cover it loosely with foil.

Tip 6: Allow the Chicken to Rest

Allowing the chicken to rest after cooking is an important step that should not be skipped. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, resulting in a more flavorful and tender dish. Once the chicken is cooked, let it rest for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
Conclusion
Artichoke and black olive baked chicken is a delicious and healthy dish that is easy to make at home. By following these valuable tips, you can ensure that your chicken is flavorful, tender, and satisfies your taste buds. Remember to choose the right chicken, use high-quality artichokes and olives, properly season the chicken, layer the ingredients properly, cook at the right temperature and time, and allow the chicken to rest before serving. With these tips, you will be able to create a dish that is truly exceptional and sure to impress your guests.
