SHEET-PAN TARRAGON CHICKEN WITH SHERRY VINEGAR ONIONS



Sheet-Pan Tarragon Chicken With Sherry Vinegar Onions image

Roasting chicken with tarragon is a classic combination, but here it's given a twist. Instead of a whole bird, bone-in thighs are marinated in tarragon and garlic, then quickly roasted over a bed of sliced onions. As the chicken cooks, the fat renders, coating the onions, while the fragrant steam rising from the onions flavors the bird. It's a succulent, easy and very flavorful dinner. If you'd rather use all white meat, substitute bone-in chicken breast halves, and start checking them after 20 minutes.

Time 7h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup finely chopped tarragon (leaves and tender stems), plus 4 whole sprigs
2 garlic cloves, finely grated or minced
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, more for drizzling
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, more as needed
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper, more as needed
3 pounds bone-in chicken thighs (skin on)
2 large onions, peeled and sliced (about 4 cups)
4 thyme sprigs
Sherry vinegar, to taste

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, stir together tarragon, garlic, oil, salt and pepper. Add chicken thighs and toss to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and chill for at least 6 hours, and up to overnight.
  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. Spread onions out on a rimmed baking sheet, drizzle with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper and toss well. Clear spaces on the baking pan, then place chicken pieces in the cleared spaces so the onions surround the chicken. Strew thyme and tarragon sprigs over onions and chicken.
  • Roast, tossing the onions after 15 minutes, until chicken is cooked through and the onions tender, 25 to 35 minutes. If the chicken skin or onions are not as brown as you'd like, run pan under the broiler for 1 to 2 minutes at the end of cooking.
  • Place chicken on a platter. Drizzle onions with sherry vinegar and more salt and pepper if needed. Spoon onions around the chicken and serve.

TARRAGON CHICKEN WITH LEMON

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
4 skinless chicken legs, skin removed (about 2 1/4 pounds)
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons dry white vermouth
1 cup chicken broth, low-sodium canned, or homemade
1 teaspoon cold water, more if needed
1 teaspoon cornstarch
Finely grated zest of 1 lemon
2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
3 tablespoons minced fresh tarragon leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Heat a medium-large skillet over high heat. Add the olive oil. Season the chicken all over with salt and pepper, and lay the pieces in the pan rounded-side down first (the side that had the skin). Cook the chicken, turning only once, until golden brown on both sides, about 5 minutes. Transfer chicken to an oven-proof dish, reserving the skillet. Place the chicken to the oven and bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the chicken registers 170 to 75 degrees F, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, pour the vermouth into the reserved skillet, scraping up any browned bits that cling to the pan with a wooden spoon, and cook over medium heat until the liquid reduces by about half. Add the chicken broth and continue to cook until slightly thickened.
  • In a small bowl whisk a teaspoon or so of cold water with the cornstarch, then whisk the mixture into the broth and bring to a full boil. Remove from heat and add the zest, lemon juice, and tarragon. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Remove the chicken from the oven. Pour any pan drippings from the chicken into the sauce and stir to combine. Divide the chicken pieces between 4 plates. Pour the sauce over the chicken and serve.
