BAKED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH APPLES AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Season both sides of the chicken thighs with salt and pepper.
• Heat oil in a deep oven-proof skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add chicken thighs to the hot oil and cook until browned on both sides, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to a plate and keep warm.
• Add sliced onions to the skillet and saute until they just start to brown, about 3 minutes. Pour in apple cider and chicken stock, scraping the bottom of the pan to loosen any browned bits. Stir in thyme and salt. Simmer until the onions are soft, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn off the heat.
• Add chicken back to the skillet and spoon some sauce over the top. Arrange sliced apples around the chicken. Cover the skillet with a lid or aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove skillet from the oven and carefully uncover. Transfer chicken from the skillet to a plate and keep warm. Whisk heavy cream and cornstarch together in a small bowl. Stir gently into the sauce in the skillet. Place chicken back into the skillet and spoon some of the sauce over the chicken.
• Return skillet to the oven and bake, uncovered, until the chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, and an instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone reads 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 15 minutes more. Serve chicken and apples with the sauce.

BAKED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH MUSHROOMS AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Pat thighs dry with paper towels. Combine garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Sprinkle seasoning on both sides of the chicken thighs.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a 12-inch nonstick oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Swirl the pan to coat the bottom with the hot oil. Place seasoned thighs in the skillet and cook until browned, about 3 minutes. Turn thighs and brown the other side, about 2 minutes. Transfer browned thighs to a plate and keep warm.
• Add remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to the same skillet. Add mushrooms; cook and stir for about 2 minutes. Add smashed garlic cloves and herbes de Provence; cook and stir for 1 more minute.
• Move mushrooms to one side of the skillet and place 3 onion slices into the skillet. Place a browned chicken thigh on top of each onion slice. Move mushrooms to create an empty space in the skillet, and place the remaining onion slices and chicken thighs in the skillet.
• When all the onion slices and chicken thighs are placed, redistribute the mushrooms evenly around the skillet. Pour white wine over all and cover.
• Transfer skillet to the preheated oven and bake until chicken thighs are no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Serve each chicken piece with a slice of the cooked onion and some mushrooms. Garnish with snipped chives or parsley.

• In a small pan heat butter and oil till liquid, set aside.
• Take a large, heavy based, frying pan, heat and add 2 tbsp fat.
• Fry chicken on a high heat until it has turned from its original rosy colour to white on both sides, remove from pan immediately, conserve the fat.
• With a mortar and pestle take the rosemary, the salt, both types of peppercorns and the flour and crush everything together so you have a fine powder with a few sprigs of rosemary remaining, set aside.
• Take the hot water and add the stock cube (use stock if you have any left from another day), add Tabasco, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, vinager and sugar set aside.
• Heat oven to 350°F and place the remaining fat in an earthenware dish in the oven on a high shelf.
• Re-heat the fat in the frying pan and when hot fry the onions on a medium heat until they "relax".
• Turn the heat up to high and add 1/4 of the liquid, reduce until there is no liquid left, add another 1/4 of the liquid and repeat the process, finally add the remaining liquid and reduce again until all the liquid has evaporated, leave on a low heat for another 5 minutes, cover and set aside.

• Take the earthenware dish out of the oven and place the dusted side down in the fat, sprinkle the remaining mixture over the chicken.
• Bake for 15 minutes (turn halfway).
• Take crumbled feta cheese and crumble over the chicken.
• Grill until the feta cheese has "set", so that its dry and slightly golden (feta does NOT melt, so don't sit around waiting for it to melt 'cus you'll get a very dry chicken).
• To serve: re-heat the onions that have been steeping in their juices, and set up 3 pieces of chicken each with a"dollop" of onions in the centre.
• Garnish with a sprig of rosemary (if you must garnish things).

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees f.
• Place chicken skin side down in casserole dish large enough to leave some space between the chicken pieces. I bought one large aluminum tray. Pour remaining marinade over chicken. Bake for 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place peas and onions in a large bowl. Season with 1 tablespoon of salt (or to taste) and 1 teaspoons pepper, and 1/4 cup of olive oil. Toss to coat.
• After 20 minutes, remove chicken from oven and add the peas and onions. Turn chicken so that the skin side is up, and make sure the chicken is sitting on top of the peas so that the skin can brown. Raise oven temperature to 400 degrees and Cook for about 30 to 40 minutes or until chicken is fully cooked. I served this with my white rice recipe http://www.food.com/recipe/white-rice-503045.
