Roasted Chicken Thighs With Apples Gin And Coriander Seeds Food

ROASTED SPICED CHICKEN AND APPLES

Steps:

• Place the chicken breast-side up in a 9-by-13-inch pan. Season inside and out with 2 1/2 teaspoons salt and the Baharat. Refrigerate, uncovered, for at least 1 hour and up to overnight; this will help the skin get crispy!
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Stuff the cavity of the chicken with the onion, 4 sprigs of thyme and 2 sprigs of rosemary. Scatter the apples and remaining sprigs of thyme and rosemary around the chicken, sprinkle with the sugar and a pinch of salt and drizzle with the olive oil. Roast the chicken until the juices run clear and the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F, about 1 hour. Let the chicken sit for 10 minutes.
• Discard the herb sprigs. Add a splash of vinegar to the apples and toss to coat. Carve the chicken and serve with the apples on the side.
• In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the coriander seeds, black pepper seeds, cumin seeds, cloves and cardamom seeds, stirring often, until fragrant, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a spice grinder and blend. Stir in the paprika, cinnamon and nutmeg.

BRAISED CHICKEN THIGHS AND APPLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degree F. Sprinkle the chicken generously with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a large, deep ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Place the chicken in the skillet skin-side down and cook, flipping once, until golden on both sides. Transfer to a plate.
• Reduce the heat to medium, add the thyme and leeks to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 4 minutes. Pour in the wine and use a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom. Cook until the skillet is nearly dry. Stir in the broth, apple cider and a pinch each of salt and pepper and bring to a boil.
• Use a fork to mash the butter and flour together in a small bowl until smooth. Whisk the butter-flour mixture into the skillet until dissolved. Stir in the apples and remove from the heat. Nestle the chicken skin-side up in the skillet along with any collected juices from the plate. Bake until the chicken is cooked through, about 25 minutes.

SHEET-PAN CHICKEN WITH APPLE, FENNEL AND ONION

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. In a small skillet, toast the fennel seeds over medium-low heat, stirring frequently until fragrant, about 2 to 3 minutes. Pound into a coarse powder with a mortar and pestle or, alternatively, roughly chop. In a large bowl, toss together the chicken with 1 tablespoon olive oil and the fennel seeds and season well with salt and pepper.
• Place the onion, fennel and apple slices on the sheet pan. Toss with the remaining olive oil and season well with salt. Spread in an even layer. Add the chicken skin side up on top of the vegetables and lay the rosemary (distributing evenly) on top of the chicken. Roast for 25 to 30 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the onions, fennel and apples are softened and have begun to caramelize at the edge of the pan.
• Turn the oven to broil and move the oven rack to sit right below it. Remove and discard the rosemary sprigs and broil the chicken for 1 to 2 minutes until the skin of the chicken is crispy and golden. Season with flaky salt.

BAKED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH APPLES AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Season both sides of the chicken thighs with salt and pepper.
• Heat oil in a deep oven-proof skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add chicken thighs to the hot oil and cook until browned on both sides, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to a plate and keep warm.
• Add sliced onions to the skillet and saute until they just start to brown, about 3 minutes. Pour in apple cider and chicken stock, scraping the bottom of the pan to loosen any browned bits. Stir in thyme and salt. Simmer until the onions are soft, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn off the heat.
• Add chicken back to the skillet and spoon some sauce over the top. Arrange sliced apples around the chicken. Cover the skillet with a lid or aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove skillet from the oven and carefully uncover. Transfer chicken from the skillet to a plate and keep warm. Whisk heavy cream and cornstarch together in a small bowl. Stir gently into the sauce in the skillet. Place chicken back into the skillet and spoon some of the sauce over the chicken.
• Return skillet to the oven and bake, uncovered, until the chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, and an instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone reads 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 15 minutes more. Serve chicken and apples with the sauce.

SARASOTA'S SAVORY ROASTED CHICKEN, APPLES & ONIONS

Steps:

• Glaze -- Add the jelly, garlic and thyme to a small measuring cup and microwave for just 30 seconds on medium. This will warm it up just enough so the jelly is easier to brush on the chicken.
• Chicken -- Remove the chicken from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature. Season well with salt and pepper on both sides.
• Apples -- Slice the apples, peels on, but you can peel them if you want and toss with lemon juice. This will just prevent them from browning.
• Casserole -- In a 13x9" pan, spray well with a non-stick spray and add the chicken. Add the apples and onions around the chicken. Mix the wine, cider, salt and pepper and pour over the apples and onions. Break up the sprigs of thyme and lay around the chicken.
• Glaze -- Brush each of the chicken thighs with the glaze.
• Bake -- Middle shelf in the oven at 375 degrees, uncovered. They will take about 30 minutes, but this will depend on what type and size of chicken parts you are using. As the chicken cooks, make sure to glaze the chicken at least one more time.
• Serve -- As I mentioned, I prefer mashed parsnips or even a baked sweet potato, but, it is up to you. Most of the sauce will have cooked down, but you can always use any leftover sauce over the onions and apples. ENJOY!

CORIANDER ROAST CHICKEN THIGHS WITH PUY LENTIL SALAD

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/ gas 7. Boil the lentils for 35-40 mins over a medium heat until tender.
• Meanwhile, put the ginger, fresh coriander, garam masala, the ground coriander, ground cumin and the 2 whole garlic cloves in a large bowl with half the lemon juice and 3 tbsp of the yogurt. Blitz using a hand blender until smooth. Use 4 tbsp of the mixture to coat the chicken thighs in a large bowl. Arrange the chicken on a baking tray in a single layer.
• Add the remaining yogurt to the remaining spice and herb mixture, along with the turmeric, 1 tsp oil, the grated garlic, 1 tbsp water and remaining lemon juice to taste. Set aside.
• Tip the onions, peppers and cauliflower into the bowl used for the chicken, and toss with 1 tbsp oil to coat in some of the spice mix. Spread the veg out on a baking tray, then put in the oven with the chicken for 30-35 mins until the chicken is cooked through.
• Remove the chicken and wrap in foil to keep it warm. Scatter the cumin seeds over the veg and return to the oven for 5 mins until golden.
• To serve, drain the lentils and put in a serving bowl with the roasted veg and the remaining turmeric yogurt. Gently toss together. Serve with the chicken (taking the meat off the bones), and scatter with the extra coriander. If you're following the Healthy Diet Plan, eat half and pack up the rest to eat cold another day. Will keep chilled for up to three days or frozen for up to a month.

SPICY ROASTED CHICKEN THIGHS

Steps:

• Put chicken thighs in a bowl. Mince garlic, ginger and pepper. Toss with all remaining ingredients or put in a small food processor, and grind to a paste. (It is O.K. if the coriander seeds are not fully pulverized. They will add a little crunch.)
• Rub mixture thoroughly into chicken. At this point, you can cover, and refrigerate for up to a day.
• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Put thighs, skin side up, in a roasting pan. Roast for 35 to 45 minutes or until done.
