Best Baked Chicken Brussels Sprouts Recipes

RANCH-BAKED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH BACON, BRUSSELS SPROUTS, AND POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place chicken thighs in a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Toss potatoes, Brussels sprouts, and garlic together with olive oil in a bowl until vegetables are lightly coated. Add vegetables around and between chicken thighs in the baking dish. Season with salt, pepper, and thyme. Evenly pour the entire packet of ranch seasoning over chicken and vegetables. Sprinkle chopped bacon on top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 30 to 35 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Place the baking dish under the broiler and cook until chicken skin becomes golden brown and a bit crisp, 2 to 3 minutes

BAKED RICE WITH BRUSSELS SPROUTS AND CHICKEN

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the brussels sprouts and blanch for 5 minutes. Drain well and cut sprouts in half. Set aside. Heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil in a large, deep, ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken thighs and sear until browned, about 3 minutes each side. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Begin to bring the chicken broth to a boil in a medium saucepan. Meanwhile, add the remaining oil to the skillet. Add the garlic and onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the wine and cook, scraping the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon, for about 1 minute. Add the rice and stir constantly for 30 seconds. Add the boiling chicken broth, cumin, coriander, salt, pepper and orange zest.
• Turn the heat to low and simmer slowly, stirring frequently, until most but not all of the liquid has been absorbed, about 15 minutes. Stir in the brussels sprouts and lay the chicken over the rice. Bake, uncovered, until the liquid is absorbed, about 20 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and cover with a kitchen towel. Let stand for 10 minutes. Season the rice with additional salt if needed and pepper to taste. Sprinkle with cilantro. Divide the chicken and rice among 4 plates and serve immediately.
