SHEET-PAN CHICKEN WITH APPLE, FENNEL AND ONION



Sheet-Pan Chicken With Apple, Fennel and Onion image

Chicken thighs are roasted with classic fall ingredients for a quick, flavorful sheet-pan supper. The toasted fennel seeds subtly amplify the anise flavor of the roasted fennel and play nicely with the apples and onions. Look for an apple on the tart side as it will naturally sweeten as it cooks in the oven. If you want to use bone-in chicken breasts you can, just make sure to cut the cooking time by a few minutes so they don't dry out. Serve with a bright, bitter green salad flecked with blue cheese and toasted walnuts.

Time 40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 teaspoons fennel seeds
2 1/2 to 3 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs, patted dry
3 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced (about 1 1/2 cups)
1 medium fennel bulb, tough outer leaves removed, cored and thinly sliced (about 1 cup)
1 tart apple, such as Mutsu (Crispin) or Granny Smith, halved, cored and cut into 8 wedges
4 sprigs rosemary
Flaky salt, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. In a small skillet, toast the fennel seeds over medium-low heat, stirring frequently until fragrant, about 2 to 3 minutes. Pound into a coarse powder with a mortar and pestle or, alternatively, roughly chop. In a large bowl, toss together the chicken with 1 tablespoon olive oil and the fennel seeds and season well with salt and pepper.
  • Place the onion, fennel and apple slices on the sheet pan. Toss with the remaining olive oil and season well with salt. Spread in an even layer. Add the chicken skin side up on top of the vegetables and lay the rosemary (distributing evenly) on top of the chicken. Roast for 25 to 30 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the onions, fennel and apples are softened and have begun to caramelize at the edge of the pan.
  • Turn the oven to broil and move the oven rack to sit right below it. Remove and discard the rosemary sprigs and broil the chicken for 1 to 2 minutes until the skin of the chicken is crispy and golden. Season with flaky salt.

BAKED CHICKEN, POTATOES, AND FENNEL



Baked Chicken, Potatoes, and Fennel image

Fresh fennel (often mistakenly called anise) is a common ingredient in Mediterranean cooking. Here, it is baked until tender and buttery-tasting. If you are unable to find fennel bulbs with the fronds still attached, you can garnish the dish with dill instead.

Provided by Tasty

Categories     Dinner

Time 1h35m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 small gala apples
2 medium fennel bulbs
1 large red onion
4 cloves garlic
olive oil, to taste
kosher salt, to taste
6 sprigs fresh thyme, plus more for sauce and garnish
8 fresh sage leaves, plus more for garnish
2 lb bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs and drumsticks
⅓ cup white wine
1 ½ teaspoons dijon mustard
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • Cut each apple in half, then cut into ½-inch wedges, removing the core and seeds. Place the apples in a roasting pan.
  • Slice the fennel bulbs in half lengthwise. Cut the core out, then cut each half into ½-inch wedges. Add the fennel to the pan with the apples. Reserve some of the fronds for garnish.
  • Peel the red onion and cut in half through the stem. Cut into ½-inch wedges through the stem to keep the wedges intact. Add to the pan with the fennel and apples.
  • Peel the garlic and crush the cloves with the side of a knife. Add to the pan.
  • Drizzle everything lightly with olive oil. Season generously with salt and toss to coat. Place the thyme and sage on top.
  • Generously season the chicken on all sides with salt. Arrange the chicken on top of the vegetables.
  • Roast chicken for 20 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350ºF and continue roasting for 35-45 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165ºF. Remove the pan from the oven.
  • Use a baster to remove most of the liquid from the bottom of the pan and transfer to a small saucepan.
  • Heat the drippings over medium heat. Add the white wine and bring to a simmer. Strip a few thyme sprigs and add the leaves to the pot, along with the mustard and a few grinds of black pepper. Whisk well to combine. Let reduce for 4-5 minutes, until slightly thickened. Stir in the butter until melted. Season with more salt to taste, if necessary.
  • Pour the sauce over the roasted chicken and vegetables. Garnish with more thyme, sage, and the reserved fennel fronds.
  • Enjoy!
