SKILLET CHICKEN WITH SPRING VEGETABLES
Steps:
- Add the coriander to a spice grinder and pulse a few times until the seeds are just cracked. Set aside.
- Sprinkle the chicken thighs all over with salt and pepper. Add the oil to a large cast-iron skillet and heat over medium-high. Once the oil begins to shimmer, sear the chicken, skin side down, until golden brown and crispy, about 5 minutes. Turn the thighs over and cook until brown, about 5 minutes more. Remove from the pan to a plate, skin side up, and set aside.
- After the chicken is removed from the pan, add the cracked coriander and toast, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the leeks and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 7 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until soft, about 2 minutes. Nestle the bok choy into the leeks and add 2 tablespoons of water. Bring to a simmer and cook until the liquid has reduced, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Nestle the chicken, skin side up, into the vegetables and cook for a few minutes until the thighs are 165 degrees F in the thickest part. Remove from the heat and sprinkle with the chives. Serve right from the pan!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450°F. Using kitchen shears, remove bones from chicken thighs, keeping skin and flesh intact; discard bones. Season chicken all over with 1 tsp. salt and 1/2 tsp. pepper.
- Toss asparagus, potatoes, radishes, 2 Tbsp. oil, and remaining 1 tsp. salt and 1/2 tsp. pepper in a large bowl. Transfer everything but the asparagus to a rimmed baking sheet and roast 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, grease another rimmed baking sheet with 1 tsp. oil. Heat remaining 1 tsp. oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Working in batches, sear chicken skin side down until skin is crisp and golden brown, 5-7 minutes. Transfer skin side up to prepared sheet. After all chicken is seared (reserve fat in skillet), transfer baking sheet to oven and roast until chicken is cooked though, 8-10 minutes.
- When you open oven to roast chicken, remove baking sheet with vegetables, arrange asparagus over potatoes and radishes, then continue to roast until asparagus is crisp-tender and potatoes and radishes are well browned and tender, 8-10 minutes more (it should take the same amount of time to finish as the chicken).
- Meanwhile, carefully pour off excess fat from reserved skillet, leaving browned bits on the bottom. Add garlic, anchovy paste, and 1 Tbsp. butter to skillet and cook over medium heat until garlic is softened and fragrant, about 1 minute. Add wine, scraping up browned bits with a spatula or wooden spoon, and continue to cook, stirring, until reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Remove pan from heat and stir in lemon juice. Add remaining butter one piece at a time, swirling and stirring after each addition to fully emulsify sauce. Stir in 1 Tbsp. parsley.
- Transfer chicken and vegetables to a platter, then pour sauce over. Top with more parsley before serving.
