Time P14DT30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 quarts water
1 teaspoon household bleach
12 sprigs tarragon
12 chives
6 cups white wine vinegar
2 quarts water
1 teaspoon household bleach
12 sprigs tarragon
12 chives

Steps:

  • For the infusion: Combine the water and bleach in a large container. Dunk the tarragon and chives in the solution, and then rinse with cold water and pat dry. Place the herbs in a 2-quart container large enough to hold the vinegar.
  • Heat the vinegar in an electric kettle. When the vinegar reaches 190ºF, pour the vinegar over the herbs. After the vinegar has cooled, place the lid on the container, and store in a cool, dark place for 2 weeks.
  • For storage: After 2 weeks, sterilize the containers and lids that you will store the vinegar in by immersing them in a large pot of boiling water and boiling for 10 minutes. If using corks, purchase pre-sterilized corks, and then dip them in and out of boiling water 3 to 4 times.
  • Sanitize the second batch of herbs in the water and bleach solution, rinse, pat dry, and set aside. Divide the fresh herbs among the containers.
  • Strain the vinegar through a sanitized funnel lined with cheesecloth. Seal and refrigerate over the fresh herbs in the sanitized containers. Discard the old herbs. The vinegar may be stored at room temperature for 5 to 6 weeks, or in the refrigerator for up to 6 months.

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.

CHEF JOHN'S GREEN GODDESS DRESSING



Chef John's Green Goddess Dressing image

This creamy, herby, addictively delicious sauce is not only my favorite salad dressing, but is one of my favorite dips as well. You can of course tweak the acidity with more or less lemon, as well as play with the salt and pepper, but please do not change the trio of herbs. The way the parsley and chive play against the sweet tarragon makes this unlike any other herb dressing.
