CHICKEN CONFIT
This may be the most impressive chicken you'll ever cook. Chicken confit is tender, juicy, and totally okay to store in the fridge for up to one month.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 250ºF.
- Two options to heat the chicken: In the oven : Preheat the oven to 400°F. Remove the chicken from the oil and scrape off some of the congealed oil. Set them on a rimmed baking sheet or roasting pan, skin side-up. Roast for 25 minutes, until the skin is golden brown and crisp. On the stovetop : In a large non-stick skillet over medium-low heat, add the chicken skin side-down. Cook until the skin is golden brown and crisp, about 10 minutes. Flip the chicken over and cook the other side for 2 to 3 minutes to finish warming them through.

CHICKEN CONFIT
Steps:
- Lay the leg portions on a platter, skin side down. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of the kosher salt and black pepper. Place the garlic cloves, bay leaves, and sprigs of thyme on each of 2 leg portions. Lay the remaining 2 leg portions, flesh to flesh, on top. Put the reserved fat from the chicken in the bottom of a glass or plastic container. Top with the sandwiched leg portions. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt. Cover and refrigerate for 12 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
- Remove the chicken from the refrigerator. Remove the garlic, bay leaves, thyme, and chicken fat and reserve. Rinse the chicken with cool water, rubbing off some of the salt and pepper. Pat dry with paper towels.
- Put the reserved garlic, bay leaves, thyme, and chicken fat in the bottom of an enameled cast iron pot. Sprinkle evenly with the peppercorns and salt. Lay the chicken on top, skin side down. Add the olive oil. Cover and bake for 12 to 14 hours, or until the meat pulls away from the bone.
- Remove the chicken from the fat. Strain the fat and reserve. Pick the meat from the bones and place it in a stoneware container. Cover the meat with some of the strained fat so that there is a 1/4-inch layer of fat on top. The chicken confit can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.
- The excess oil can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator and used like butter for cooking. The tinge of chicken taste in the oil is wonderful and I use the oil to roast potatoes, cook green beans, and pan-fry veal.
CHICKEN CONFIT WITH PICKLED TOMATOES
Steps:
- Put the chicken, salt, ras el hanout, garlic, and thyme in a ziplock freezer bag. Seal the bag and shake vigorously. Put the bag in a plastic container to prevent leakage, and refrigerate for 12 to 24 hours.
- To pickle the tomatoes, combine the vinegar, water, molasses, salt, and vanilla in a nonreactive container with a tight-fitting lid. Cover and shake to completely dissolve the salt. Add the tomatoes, onion, and thyme and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour or up to 2 weeks.
- Heat the oven to 225°F. Remove the bag with the chicken from the refrigerator. Pour the contents into a colander in the sink and rinse. Transfer the chicken, garlic, and thyme sprigs to an 8 by 8-inch baking dish with fairly high sides, or a Dutch oven, so that the chicken sits in one layer. Spread the sliced onion on top and pour in the oils, until the chicken is completely covered. Bake for 6 hours, or until the onion has caramelized and the chicken is super tender and delicious and falling off of the bone. Carefully pull the dish out of the oven to cool for an hour, then remove the chicken and strain the fat into a clean lidded jar (it'll keep in the fridge for months). Shred the cooked chicken and set aside on a large plate.
- To make the noodle salad, in a bowl, toss the rice noodles with the herbs, 1⁄2 cup of the reserved confit fat, and the salt.
- Heat 2 teaspoons of the confit fat in a large nonstick pan over high heat until it just starts to smoke. Add the shredded chicken confit and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the meat is browned, crispy, and insanely fragrant. Divide the noodle salad among eight bowls and top with the sautéed confit and some pickled tomatoes, and serve.
CHICKEN CONFIT WITH ROASTED POTATOES AND PARSLEY SALAD
This recipe takes its name from the French technique for preserving food by salting it and cooking it for a long time in fat, as in your classic duck or goose confit. But it isn't truly a confit - you won't need gallons of fat. It's more of a slow braise in olive oil scented with thyme and garlic. The chicken grows dense in the cooking, and deeply flavorful. (Have an immersion circulator? Just bag the chicken with a few tablespoons of olive oil, some salt, pepper, peeled garlic and a couple sprigs of thyme, then put it in the bath at 165 degrees for about four hours.) Pull the chicken from the oil when it's done, and allow it to chill uncovered in the refrigerator until you're ready to crisp it up in a hot pan while the potatoes roast unattended in the oven. For serving alongside, you discipline some parsley with a knife, and mix it with a salty, acidic mustard dressing that complements the bird.

Steps:
- Make the chicken confit. Heat oven to 250. Season the chicken legs with salt and pepper, and place in a pan just large enough to fit them comfortably. Add oil, thyme and garlic, place on stovetop over medium heat and cook until the oil just begins to bubble.
- Transfer pan to oven, uncovered. Cook for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, until the meat is easily pierced with a thin-bladed knife. (Adjust oven temperature up or down to make sure oil is just bubbling.) Allow to cool, then remove chicken from oil and place on a plate. Place in refrigerator until ready to cook. Strain oil, and reserve, covered, in the refrigerator. Chicken can be cooked a few days ahead of use.
- Make the potatoes. Heat oven to 425. Place the potatoes in a roasting pan, and toss with 2 to 3 tablespoons of the reserved oil. Arrange the potatoes cut side down on the pan, and place in the oven, until golden and crisp, approximately 40 minutes to an hour. Remove from oven, and salt to taste.
- Finish the chicken confit. Put 3 tablespoons of the reserved oil into a pan set over medium heat. When it shimmers, add the chicken, and cook, turning once or twice, until both sides are nicely crisp and brown, approximately 15 minutes. Serve hot or at room temperature.
- Make the parsley salad. Combine parsley leaves, shallots and olives in a medium-size bowl. In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, 3 tablespoons of the reserved oil and the mustard. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then toss the parsley and the dressing together.
- To serve, place a chicken leg and half of the potatoes and parsley salad on each plate.

Steps:
- Place chicken in shallow dish. Season with salt and pepper and scatter shallots, 2 cloves garlic, bay leaves and thyme on top. Cover and refrigerate 24 hours.
- Place chicken, with seasonings, in saucepan that will hold it snugly in single layer. Pour in enough oil to cover completely. Heat, adjusting burner so oil simmers very gently. Cook 1 3/4 hours, skimming surface from time to time. Allow to cool, then refrigerate overnight. It can be refrigerated for a week or even a bit more.
- Saute bacon until lightly browned. Drain, reserving 2 teaspoons fat, and place on paper towel. Rub toast slices with remaining garlic clove and brush with a little olive oil.
- Beat 6 tablespoons olive oil with vinegar and bacon fat. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Place frisee and arugula or watercress in salad bowl and toss with dressing. Season with salt and pepper.
- Remove chicken from refrigerator, and scrape off as much oil as possible. Heat a nonstick skillet and place chicken, skin side down, in it over medium heat. Saute until skin is browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn and saute other side 2 to 3 minutes. Remove chicken from pan and use small knife to remove bone. Slice chicken, place in salad bowl and toss gently with greens.
- Place 2 slices toast on each of 4 plates. Mound chicken and greens in center. Scatter with bacon and parsley, and serve.

Steps:
- Mix the thyme leaves with the salt and lemon zest. Rub over the chicken legs, then chill for 1 hr. Heat oven to 140C/120C fan/gas 1.
- Pat the chicken dry with kitchen paper. Place in a small roasting tin with the remaining confit ingredients. Bake in the oven for 2-2 1/2 hrs until tender, then remove from the oil and drain on a wire rack. Reserve and strain the oil - this is great for roasting veg or making more confit. Reserve the shallot and garlic.
- To make the hash, heat 1 tbsp of the infused oil in a heavy-bottomed frying pan. Add the potatoes and cook for about 10 mins until they start to soften. Add the bacon and cook, stirring, until it's crisping. Add the leeks, chilli, confit shallot and garlic (squeezed out of its skin). Cook for another 5 mins until the leeks have softened and the potatoes are cooked through. Season, then add the spinach, kale and parsley. Stir until the leaves have wilted. Add a splash of vinegar.
- Poach the eggs in barely simmering water for 3 mins, then drain on kitchen paper. Serve the chicken with the hash, eggs and a sprinkling of parsley.
