GARLICKY CHICKEN THIGHS WITH SCALLION AND LIME



Garlicky Chicken Thighs With Scallion and Lime image

These tangy chicken thighs are a weeknight alternative to a long, weekend braise. They may not fall entirely off the bone, but the quick simmer in a rich, citrusy sauce yields an impossibly tender thigh that you wouldn't get with a simple sear. Serve with rice, whole grains or with hunks of crusty bread for mopping up the leftover sauce.

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 bunch scallions
1 head garlic, unpeeled and halved crosswise
2 cloves garlic, peeled and finely grated
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice, plus 1 lime
1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce

Steps:

  • Season chicken with salt and pepper on both sides.
  • Heat oil in a large Dutch oven or large, high-sided skillet over medium heat.
  • Add chicken, skin-side down and cook, undisturbed, until chicken is crisped and the fat has begun to render, 8 to 10 minutes. Using tongs, carefully flip chicken skin-side up. Cook until golden brown, 4 to 6 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, thinly slice two scallions; set aside.
  • Add both halves of the head of garlic, cut side down, and remaining whole scallions to the pot and season with salt and pepper, tossing to coat in the chicken fat. Cook until scallions are lightly blistered and browned, about 3 minutes. Add grated garlic and stir a minute or two, but do not brown.
  • Add lime juice, soy sauce and 1 cup of water. Bring to a simmer and partly cover. Cook until chicken is completely tender and nearly falling apart on the underside and liquid is reduced by three-quarters, 15 to 20 minutes. Discard the halved head of garlic.
  • Scatter sliced scallion over chicken and using a Microplane or zester, zest lime over. Cut lime into quarters and serve alongside.

GINGER-LIME CHICKEN



Ginger-Lime Chicken image

Though this may look like regular old chicken, don't be fooled: It's buzzing with the bright flavors of ginger and lime. Mayonnaise is the secret ingredient in this recipe, which is a trick J. Kenji López-Alt has written about. When slathered on boneless chicken and cooked, the beloved condiment carries flavor, sticks to the meat well, encourages browning and prevents the pieces of lime zest and ginger - or whatever seasonings you choose - from burning. Try this technique first with ginger and lime zest, then experiment with grated garlic, jalapeño, lemon, Parmesan and whatever else you can imagine. Serve with a pile of white rice and a fresh green salad topped with thinly sliced avocado.

Categories     dinner, weekday, poultry, main course

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 1/2 to 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts
Kosher salt and black pepper
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon lime zest (from about 2 limes), plus lime wedges, for serving
1 tablespoon finely grated fresh ginger (from a 3-inch piece of peeled ginger)

Steps:

  • Pat the chicken dry and season all over with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. In a medium bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, lime zest and ginger; season with salt and pepper. Add the chicken to the mayonnaise mixture and stir to coat. (The chicken can sit in the marinade for up to 8 hours in the fridge. Let come to room temperature before cooking.)
  • To grill: Heat a grill to medium-high. Grill the chicken over direct heat until cooked through and juices run clear, about 5 minutes per side for thighs and about 4 minutes per side for breasts, turning as necessary to avoid burning.
  • To cook in a skillet: Heat a large skillet over medium-high. Cook the chicken until juices run clear, about 5 minutes per side for thighs and about 4 minutes per side for breasts.
  • Serve chicken with lime wedges, for squeezing on top.

Tips:

- To ensure crispy skin, make sure the chicken thighs are completely dry before cooking. You can use paper towels to pat them dry, or even let them air dry on a wire rack in the refrigerator for an hour or two before cooking. - For extra crispy skin, coat the chicken thighs in a mixture of equal parts flour and cornstarch before pan-frying. This will help create a golden brown, crispy crust. - Be careful not to overcrowd the pan when cooking the chicken thighs. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and getting crispy. - Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken thighs are cooked through. The internal temperature should read 165 degrees Fahrenheit (74 degrees Celsius) before removing them from the heat and allow them rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. - For the ginger-lime sauce, use fresh ginger and lime juice whenever possible. This will give the sauce the best flavor. - If you don't have fish sauce, you can substitute soy sauce or tamari. However, fish sauce will give the sauce a more authentic flavor. - Serve the crispy ginger-lime chicken thighs with rice, noodles, or your favorite side dishes.

Conclusion:

This crispy ginger-lime chicken thigh recipe is an easy and delicious weeknight meal. The chicken thighs are perfectly crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside. The ginger-lime sauce is the perfect complement to the chicken, with its bright, citrusy flavor. This dish is sure to be a hit with family and friends.
