Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

Extra-virgin olive oil, for liberal drizzling plus 2 tablespoons
1/4 pound pancetta, chopped
2 red onions chopped
Salt and black pepper
1 fresh bay leaf
2 pounds ground chicken
1 1/2 tablespoons fennel seed, lightly toasted
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes -- go heavier for extra spicy
1/4 teaspoon allspice
Zest and juice of 1 orange
3 tablespoons finely chopped rosemary, 4 to 5 sprigs
4 cloves garlic, grated with a microplane or the small side of a box grater
2 generous handfuls of grated Parmigiano Reggiano or Romano cheese
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce, eyeball it
1/2 cup aged balsamic vinegar
3 tablespoons honey or dark brown sugar
1/2 endive, chopped
1 cup arugula leaves, shredded
1/2 radicchio, chopped
4 crusty rolls, split, toasted and drizzled with extra-virgin olive oil or buttered

Steps:

  • Put 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil in a pot over medium high heat. If you're cooking outside you can cook over the grill flames. Add the pancetta to the pot and crisp it up, 3 to 4 minutes, add the onion to the pot and season with salt and pepper - go heavy on that pepper. The black pepper will really balance out the sweetness of your sauce later on. Add the bay leaf to the pot.
  • While the onions cook, place the ground chicken in a bowl and add fennel seed, red pepper flakes, allspice, orange zest, rosemary, garlic, salt and pepper, to taste, and cheese. Mix the meat with seasonings and form 4 large patties. Make a shallow dent in each patty at the center of it to prevent the burger from bulging up as it cooks. Wash up and drizzle the patties liberally with extra-virgin olive oil. Place the patties on the grill and cook 6 to 7 minutes on each side.
  • When the onions are very soft and begin to caramelize, remove the bay leaf and add the Worcestershire sauce, balsamic vinegar, honey or sugar, and orange juice. Let the sauce thicken up and sweeten up 6 to 7 minutes until the liquids are syrupy. Adjust the black pepper level to your taste.
  • Mix the chopped endive, shredded arugula and chopped radicchio together. Pile the chopped lettuces on the bun bottoms top with burgers and lots of onion barbecue sauce. Set bun tops in place and serve.

SKILLET CHICKEN THIGHS WITH WHITE WINE-BUTTER SAUCE



Skillet Chicken Thighs with White Wine-Butter Sauce image

The stovetop-to-oven cast-iron skillet technique in this recipe is our go-to for achieving crispy, juicy chicken thighs. If you're tight on time, the chicken is delicious without the butter sauce (simply plate the thighs straight out of the oven). But to truly impart restaurant-worthy flavor, try your hand at the classic white wine and butter sauce known as beurre blanc in French. The recipe makes a plentiful amount of sauce; nestle the chicken into some of it, then spoon more over every other component of your dinner.

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs (about 2 pounds)
Kosher salt and coarsely ground black pepper
1/3 cup champagne vinegar
1/3 cup dry white wine
2 shallots, finely chopped
1/2 lemon, juiced
2 bay leaves
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 pound (2 sticks) unsalted butter, cubed
1/4 cup chopped chives

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Sprinkle them on both sides with 1 1/2 teaspoons each salt and pepper.
  • Heat a large oven-proof skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium-high heat. Add the chicken thighs to the skillet skin-side down and cook, moving them around once or twice to ensure even browning, until the skin is very golden brown, 11 to 12 minutes.
  • Turn off the heat. Grasp a wad of paper towels with tongs and mop up excess fat in the bottom of the skillet-this will prevent the grease from spattering all over your oven; carefully discard the paper towel. Repeat several times until there's only a thin film of oil over the bottom of the skillet.
  • Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast until the chicken is almost cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Flip the thighs so they are skin side up, then continue roasting until no longer pink near the bone, another 6 minutes. Remove the skillet from the oven and transfer the chicken thighs to a plate, skin side up. Wipe out the skillet and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, start your sauce. Combine the vinegar, wine, shallots, lemon juice and bay leaves in a heavy 2-quart saucepan. Simmer over medium heat until the mixture is reduced to a wet paste, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the cream and continue to simmer until the mixture is reduced to about 2 tablespoons.
  • Reduce the heat to low and remove the bay leaves. Add a few chunks of the butter and whisk constantly until melted, then add a few more chunks and whisk again until melted. Continue adding and whisking the butter, which should melt into a creamy emulsion, until all the butter is incorporated, about 4 minutes. Do not let the sauce go over 130 degrees F or it will separate. If the sauce starts to break, remove from the heat, add 2 ice cubes and whisk until it cools down and comes back together.
  • Season the sauce with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a pinch of pepper. Transfer it to the cast iron skillet, nestle the chicken on top and sprinkle the whole dish with chives. Serve immediately.

Categories     main-dish

Time 26m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (about 1 pound)
2 teaspoons kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
3/4 cup apple cider
1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat a medium to large skillet over medium-high heat, for about 1 minute or until the surface of the pan is hot. Add the oil and heat until rippling on the surface. Pat the chicken breast dry and season with salt and pepper. Place the chicken in the pan and cook until the meat is golden, about 4 minutes. Turn the chicken breasts, lower the heat to medium and add 1 tablespoon of the butter. Cook until firm to the touch or an instant-read thermometer registers 160 degrees F, about 4 to 6 minutes more. Transfer the chicken to a plate to rest.
  • Pour off any fat remaining in the skillet. Add the vinegar and deglaze over medium-high heat, scraping up any browned bits stuck to the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Add the cider and the broth. Bring to a boil and cook until it thickens to form a sauce, about 6 minutes. Whisk in the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, lemon juice and thyme leaves. Return the chicken to the pan, adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper, and serve.

CHICKEN BITES WITH SAUSAGES IN A VINEGAR SAUCE



CHICKEN BITES WITH SAUSAGES IN A VINEGAR SAUCE image

Categories     Chicken

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
½ pound sweet Italian sausage
salt
2 pounds boneless chicken breast
4 garlic cloves, chopped fine
2 teaspoons honey
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
¼ cup wine vinegar
½ cup white wine
½ cup chicken stock, or canned low-sodium chicken broth
2 tablespoons Italian parsley, chopped fresh

Steps:

  • In a wide (at least 12-inch), heavy skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium heat. Add the sausage and cook, stirring often, until the sausage is lightly browned on all sides, about 3 minutes for thinner sausages and 5 minutes for wider sausages. Pour off the fat from the pan and add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Season the chicken cubes with salt and add them to the skillet. Cook the chicken, turning the pieces often, until light golden brown, about 4 minutes. About halfway through, clear a small area on the side of the skillet and add the garlic to it. When the garlic is light golden brown, about 1 minute, stir it into the chicken and sausage mixture. Drizzle the honey over the chicken and sausage and cook, stirring constantly, until the chicken is a rich mahogany color, about 1 minute. Add the butter and stir until melted. Pour in the vinegar and bring to a boil. Boil until the vinegar is almost entirely evaporated, about 2 minutes. Add the wine, bring to a boil, and then add the chicken stock. Boil until the sauce is quite thick and there is just enough sauce to barely coat the chicken pieces, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle the parsley over the chicken and serve.

CHICKEN BITES WITH POTATO, SAUSAGES, AND VINEGAR



Chicken Bites with Potato, Sausages, and Vinegar image

For this dish I prefer luganega, a thin (about 1/2-inch-wide) pork sausage seasoned only with salt and pepper and without fennel or other seeds. If that is unavailable, use the wider (about 1-inch-thick) sweet pork sausages, preferably made without aromatic seeds of any kind. Cut the smaller luganega into 1-inch lengths, and the wider sausages into 1/2-inch lengths. When I cook a whole chicken, or any chicken on the bone, I always salt it three times: in its raw state, when I first begin to cook it, and as it finishes cooking. It seems that the first two saltings are absorbed and somewhat dissipated, especially if you add more ingredients as the chicken cooks. The last salting should be to balance the whole act. Each time you salt, it should be done judiciously, to avoid oversalting and ruining the dish.

Yield makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 frying chickens (about 3 pounds each, preferably free-range)
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 pound sweet Italian sausage
1 pound small red-bliss potatoes (about 12), washed and cut in half
6 cloves garlic, peeled
3 sprigs fresh rosemary
1/4 cup red-wine vinegar
2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley

Steps:

  • Cut each chicken into twelve pieces as described on page 261. Wash and pat the chicken pieces dry, then season them generously with salt and pepper. Preheat the oven to 450° F. Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a wide, heavy skillet over medium heat. Add the sausage and cook, stirring often, until lightly browned on all sides, about 3 minutes for thinner sausages or 5 minutes for wider sausages. Remove the sausage pieces with a slotted spoon and transfer them to a roasting pan or baking dish large enough to hold all the sausage, chicken, and potatoes comfortably while allowing room for stirring. (An 18 × 15-inch roasting pan is ideal.) Season the chicken generously with salt and pepper again. Increase the heat to medium-high and add to the skillet as many pieces, skin side down, as will fit in a single layer. Cook, turning once, until well browned on both sides, about 8 minutes. As the pieces are done, remove them to the roasting pan and add the remaining chicken pieces as room becomes available. When all the chicken has been browned and removed from the pan, add the potatoes, cut side down, and cook until browned, about 6 minutes. Transfer those to the roasting pan as well.
  • Whack the garlic cloves with the flat side of the knife and scatter them and the rosemary over the contents of the roasting pan. Drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and roast 15 minutes, stirring gently occasionally. Sprinkle the chicken, sausage, and potatoes with the vinegar and continue roasting, stirring gently occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are very tender, about 15 minutes.
  • Prop up one end of the roasting pan so the fat settles on one end and let rest 5 minutes. Spoon off the excess fat from the roasting pan, sprinkle the parsley over everything, and transfer to a warm serving platter. Serve immediately.
