RISHIA ZIMMERN'S CHICKEN WITH SHALLOTS



Rishia Zimmern's Chicken With Shallots image

Here is a simple, excellent one-pot recipe for a midweek feast, full of rich flavor, with a sauce that you won't want to waste. It came to The Times in 2014 via the Twitter account of Andrew Zimmern, the chef and globe-trotting television personality who thrills to home cooking when he's not at work, which is not often. His then wife, Rishia Zimmern, adapted it from Martha Stewart, and he put it on the social network: "Brown 8 thighs, 3 C shallots. Add wine, tarragon, Dijon, sim 30 min covered. Remove lid, reduce. Add 2C cut cherry toms." We've been messing around with that ever since, and thrill to its flavor. Lay in bread to accompany it, and sop up the sauce.

Categories     dinner

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon black pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
12 to 15 whole medium shallots, peeled
2 cups white wine
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tarragon sprigs
2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved

Steps:

  • Pat the chicken thighs very dry with paper towels. Sprinkle the flour, salt and pepper over the chicken.
  • Melt the butter in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or skillet set over medium-high heat. When the butter foams, cook the chicken, in batches if necessary, until well browned and crisp on all sides. Set aside.
  • Add the whole shallots to the pot and sauté them in the butter and chicken fat until they begin to soften and caramelize, about 10 to 12 minutes. Add the wine to deglaze the pot, stir with a large spoon, then add the mustard and tarragon, then the chicken thighs. Cover the pot, turn the heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes.
  • Remove the lid, and allow the sauce to reduce and thicken, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Add the cherry tomatoes to the pot, stir lightly to combine and serve immediately.

CHICKEN WITH SHALLOTS

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 boneless chicken breasts, skin on (6 to 8 ounces each)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons vegetable or canola oil
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/3 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (3 lemons)
1/4 cup minced shallots (1 large)
3 tablespoons heavy cream
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, diced, at room temperature

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
  • Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and sprinkle them generously on both sides with salt and pepper. In a 12-inch cast-iron skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat for 2 minutes, until it begins to smoke. Place the chicken breasts, skin side down, in the skillet and cook for 4 to 5 minutes without moving, until golden brown.
  • Using tongs, turn the chicken breasts skin side up, place the skillet in the oven, and roast for 12 to 15 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium saute pan, combine the white wine, lemon juice, and shallots and cook over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes, until only 2 tablespoons of liquid remain in the pan. If it reduces too much, add an extra splash of white wine or water. Add the cream, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and bring to a full boil. Remove from the heat, add the diced butter, and swirl the pan until the butter is incorporated. Don't reheat or the sauce will "break"! Sprinkle with salt and serve the chicken hot with the sauce spooned over it.

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

1/3 cup all-purpose flour
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 chicken thighs, bone in and skin on
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, preferably from California
One 10-ounce package sliced white mushrooms
1 medium shallot, thinly sliced
1 small head fennel, thinly sliced (about 3 cups)
1/2 cup white wine, such as Chardonnay, preferably from California
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
2 sprigs fresh thyme
1 lemon, zested and juiced, plus thinly sliced lemon, for garnish
Pistachio Pesto Pasta, recipe follows, for serving, optional
Fresh basil leaves, for garnish
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound fettuccine
1 cup roasted shelled pistachios
3/4 cup fresh basil leaves, plus more for garnish
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup grated Parmesan, plus more for serving
3 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
Zest and juice of 1 lemon

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Season the flour with salt and pepper, then mix together in a shallow bowl. Lightly dust both sides of the chicken with the flour, shaking off any excess.
  • Add the olive oil to a skillet and heat over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the chicken skin-side down and cook until the skin is golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Flip the chicken and cook on the other side until golden brown, about 4 more minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  • Add the mushrooms, shallot and fennel to the skillet and cook just until beginning to soften, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of the excess dredging flour and stir well. Add the white wine, chicken broth, garlic, rosemary, thyme and lemon juice, then bring to a simmer, scraping the bottom of the skillet. Add the chicken back to the skillet skin-side up and place in the oven. Cook until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes.
  • Serve with Pistachio Pesto Pasta if desired and garnish with basil leaves, lemon zest and lemon slices.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to the package directions.
  • While the pasta is cooking, make the pistachio pesto. Combine the pistachios, basil, olive oil, Parmesan, garlic, lemon zest and juice and some salt and pepper in a food processor and process until well combined.
  • Reserve 1 cup of the pasta water and drain the pasta. Toss the pasta with the pistachio sauce, thinning with the pasta water for the desired consistency if necessary. Serve with more Parmesan and basil leaves.

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.
