CHICKEN AND VEGGIE SKILLET



Chicken and Veggie Skillet image

I love to make this one-pan dinner on especially busy weeknights. (It's also great if you're a meal prepper.) Chicken thighs and root veggies are all cooked together in my beloved cast-iron skillet. If you don't have access to fresh herbs, feel free to use dried instead.

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
1 tablespoon Miss Brown's House Seasoning, recipe follows
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 small beets (golden or red), cut into 1/2-inch chunks
1/2 bunch rainbow carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
1/2 cup 1-inch parsnip chunks
1/2 red onion, sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
2 sprigs fresh sage
2 sprigs fresh thyme
1 sprig fresh tarragon
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons dry sherry, optional
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
3 cloves garlic, minced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon paprika
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • For the chicken and veggies: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Sprinkle the chicken with half of the House Seasoning and brush both sides with the Dijon mustard. Drizzle the beets, carrots, parsnips and onion with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 tablespoon House Seasoning. Set aside.
  • Heat the remaining tablespoon olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken until browned, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 4 to 5 minutes more. Remove the chicken to a plate.
  • Add the beets, carrots, parsnips and onions to the skillet and cook until browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the herbs and nestle the chicken into the vegetables.
  • Transfer the skillet to the bottom rack of the oven. Bake until the juices from the chicken run clear and the vegetables are tender, about 40 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the butter sauce: Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the sherry, if using, along with the parsley, lemon juice and garlic. Bring the mixture to a simmer and season with salt and pepper. Remove the skillet from the oven and pour the sauce over the chicken and vegetables.
  • Stir together the garlic and onion powders, paprika, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Store in an airtight container.

I invented this chicken and veggie dish to use up extra mushrooms and asparagus. My husband suggested I write it down because it's a keeper. -Rebekah Beyer, Sabetha, Kansas
