CHICKEN WITH CARAMELIZED SHALLOTS AND SHIITAKE-WINE SAUCE



Chicken with Caramelized Shallots and Shiitake-Wine Sauce image

This is a perfect autumn dish, full of rich flavor and deep color. Be sure to really press down on the chicken when you add it to the pan to help the shallots and green onions stick to the skin and form a sort of caramelized onion crust. I prefer dark meat because it is generally juicier and more flavorful, but this method works very well with both dark and light meat.

Yield makes 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 bone-in chicken thighs or 4 bone-in or boneless breasts, with skin
Kosher salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 large shallots (about 4 ounces), thinly sliced
2 green onions (white and light green parts), chopped
Ingredients for Shiitake-Wine Sauce (page 167, see Note)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Lightly season the chicken with salt and pepper. In a large, ovenproof skillet, heat the oil over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Add the shallots and green onions and cook, stirring, just until beginning to brown, about 2 minutes. Arrange the chicken over the onions skin-side down and use a spatula to firmly press each piece of chicken into the onions. Cover the skillet and cook until the shallots and green onions are browned and sticking to the skin of the chicken and the chicken is almost completely cooked, 8 to 10 minutes. Uncover and transfer the pan to the oven until the chicken is completely cooked, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the shiitake-wine sauce.
  • Transfer the chicken and the caramelized onions to individual plates or a serving platter. Pour over some of the sauce; transfer the remainder to a gravy boat and pass at the table. Serve.

I was given a HUGE bag of dried shiitakes, so I'm on the hunt for ways to use them up. This is from the Oakshire Mushroom Farm website.
