Chicken Osso Bucco:
3 breasts of chicken (bone in, skin on, cut into 2 pieces, preferably by the butcher)
2 chicken thighs
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup all-purpose flour, for dredging
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 small onion, finely diced
3 carrots, finely diced
2 celery stalks, finely diced
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 cup dry white wine
4 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 large sprig fresh rosemary
2 large sprigs fresh thyme
2 bay leaves
2 whole cloves
Gremolata:
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 lemon, zested
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon minced rosemary leaves
Pinch salt
Pinch freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the Chicken Osso Bucco: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Pat the chicken with paper towels to dry and ensure even browning. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Dredge the chicken in the flour to coat. In a heavy roasting pan large enough to fit the chicken in a single layer, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook until brown on both sides, about 6 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to a plate and reserve. In the same pan, add the onion, carrot, and celery. Season vegetables with salt. Cook until the vegetables are tender, about 6 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 1 minute. Stir in the wine and simmer until the liquid is reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Return the chicken to the pan. Add enough chicken broth to come 2/3 up the sides of the chicken. Add the herb sprigs, bay leaf, and cloves to the broth mixture. Bring the liquid to a boil over medium-high heat. Remove the pan from the heat. Cover the pan tightly with foil and transfer to the oven. Braise until the chicken is fork-tender, turning the chicken after 1 hour. For the Gremolata: Combine the chopped parsley, lemon zest, garlic, minced rosemary, and a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper in a bowl. Cover and reserve until serving the chicken. To serve, transfer the chicken to shallow serving bowls. Season the sauce to taste with salt and pepper. Ladle the sauce over the meat. Sprinkle each piece of chicken with a large pinch of Gremolata. Serve immediately.
