Categories     main-dish

Time 4h5m

Yield 4 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

8 chicken thighs, bone-in, skin-on (3 1/2 to 4 pounds)
4 large cloves garlic, thinly sliced
3 large shallots, thinly sliced
3/4 cup dry vermouth
Extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup Dijon mustard
1/4 cup lemon juice (about 2 large lemons)
2 tablespoons fresh thyme
2 teaspoons crushed red pepper
Kosher salt
3 small leeks, root and dark green top removed
1 1/2 pounds Peewee Dutch Yellow potatoes (see Cook's Note)
1 medium red onion, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus 3 tablespoons melted butter
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1/2 cup chicken stock
1 1/2 cups fresh breadcrumbs, preferably from sourdough bread (see Cook's Note)
3 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon
1 teaspoon crushed sea salt flakes
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Place a 1-gallon resealable plastic bag in a large bowl, open up the bag and roll down the sides. Add the chicken thighs to the bag. Then add the garlic, shallots, vermouth, 1/2 cup olive oil, 1/4 cup of the Dijon, lemon juice, thyme, crushed red pepper and 2 teaspoons salt. Close the bag tightly, squeezing out any excess air. Use your hands (on the outside of the bag) to mix all the ingredients together, making sure to completely coat the chicken in the marinade. Place the bag back in the bowl and refrigerate for 2 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Remove the marinated chicken from the refrigerator and allow it to come to room temperature while you roast the vegetables.
  • Slice the leeks into 1/2-inch rounds and place in a bowl of water to remove any dirt. Drain and dry with paper towels.
  • To a 9-by-12-by-3-inch baking dish, add the cleaned leeks, potatoes, red onions, 1 tablespoon olive oil and a generous sprinkle of salt. Toss together so everything is evenly coated. Roast for 35 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and browned in spots but the potatoes have not split. Remove from the oven and set aside until the chicken is ready to add to the baking dish.
  • While the vegetables are roasting, use to tongs to remove the chicken from the marinade to a baking sheet, making sure to wipe any sliced shallots or garlic back into the marinade. Next, set a large strainer over a large bowl and strain the marinade; reserve the liquid and solids.
  • Sprinkle the chicken all over with salt. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken on both sides, 3 minutes per side; work in batches if necessary, adding more oil and butter as needed. Remove the chicken to a clean baking sheet and reserve. Degrease the saute pan, wiping out any dark bits, and then melt 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat. Add all the solids from the marinade; saute until the shallots have just begun to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the flour until completely incorporated, and then stir in the reserved marinade liquid and the chicken stock. Bring to a boil and cook for 2 minutes; for food safety reasons, it is important that the mixture comes to a full boil for a couple minutes.
  • Pour the sauteed shallot mixture evenly over the roasted vegetables in the baking dish. Place the chicken pieces on top and return to the oven for 10 to 15 minutes, until the chicken is almost cooked through (about 150 degrees F).
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs, tarragon, crushed sea salt and melted butter.
  • Remove the chicken from the oven, slather with the remaining 1/4 cup Dijon mustard, and top with the breadcrumb mixture. Return to the oven for an additional 12 minutes, until the chicken has finished cooking and the breadcrumbs have browned on top. Serve immediately.

Time 1h10m

Yield 3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 cloves garlic
1 tablespoon minced fresh thyme leaves
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cups panko (Japanese bread flakes)
1 tablespoon grated lemon zest (2 lemons)
2 tablespoons good olive oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

  • Place the garlic, thyme, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper in a food processor fitted with the steel blade and process until the garlic is finely minced. Add the panko, lemon zest, olive oil, and butter and pulse a few times to moisten the bread flakes. Pour the mixture onto a large plate. In a shallow bowl, whisk together the mustard and wine.
  • Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Sprinkle generously all over with salt and pepper. Dip each piece in the mustard mixture to coat on all sides, and then place skin-side down only into the crumb mixture, pressing gently to make the crumbs adhere. Place the chicken on a sheet pan crumb-side up. Press the remaining crumbs on the chicken pieces.
  • Bake the chicken for 40 minutes. Raise the heat to 400 degrees F and bake for another 10 minutes, until the crumbs are browned and the chicken is cooked through. Serve hot, warm, or at room temperature.

CRUSTY MUSTARD CHICKEN



Crusty Mustard Chicken image

This chicken gets its crisp crust from a mustard-and-breadcrumb coating, which imparts tangy flavor while keeping the chicken moist and tender. Sauteed swiss chard makes a great side dish.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Chicken

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 whole chicken (about 3 pounds), cut into 10 serving pieces
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon minced shallots
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon crushed red-pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 1/2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1 1/2 cups fresh white breadcrumbs

  • In a small bowl, combine mustard, shallots, thyme, black pepper, red-pepper flakes, and salt. Stir in butter and oil until thoroughly combined.

BROILED CRUSTY MUSTARD CHICKEN



Broiled Crusty Mustard Chicken image

This is a recipe that I wrote down while watching "Martha Stewart Living"...Seemed so easy and looked so good! It really tastes good! I have changed it up a bit...Her recipe calls for 2-3 lb. chicken fryer, but I use boneless chicken breasts instead, and tweaked it just a tad for my own taste...(Personal preferences...) It was my first attempt at broiling chicken, but it really turned out flavorful and yummy!

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

3/4 cup panko (Japanese breadcrumbs)
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons thyme leaves, plus 3 sprigs
8 skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs, patted dry

Steps:

  • Place a rack in highest position in oven; preheat to 450°F. Place panko in a small bowl. Mash butter, mustard, and thyme leaves in another small bowl with a fork (it will be a little lumpy). Season chicken thighs on both sides with salt and pepper. Arrange skin side up a rimmed baking sheet and smear all over skin side of thighs. Working with 1 piece at a time, firmly press chicken, skin side down, into panko so crumbs adhere. Place back on baking sheet skin side up.

Tips:

  • Choose the right type of mustard. For a milder flavor, use a yellow or Dijon mustard. For a more robust flavor, use a brown or horseradish mustard.
  • Make sure the chicken is dry before applying the mustard mixture. This will help the mustard adhere to the chicken and create a crispy crust.
  • Don't overcrowd the chicken in the pan. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat. This will help the chicken cook through without burning.
  • Serve the chicken immediately with your favorite sides.

Conclusion:

This tangy and flavorful chicken is a great option for a weeknight meal. It's easy to make and can be paired with a variety of sides. The crispy mustard crust adds a delicious crunch to the chicken, and the flavorful mustard sauce is perfect for dipping.

If you're looking for a new way to enjoy chicken, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
