CHICKEN WITH ARTICHOKES AND LEMON



Chicken With Artichokes and Lemon image

If you like artichokes as much as I do, this recipe, often made at Passover by Jews from Morocco, is for you. You can use fresh or frozen artichokes, though trimming fresh artichokes is worth the effort for their delicate texture. To save waste, boil the trimmed artichoke leaves about 15 minutes until tender in water with a lemon, then enjoy them for lunch, dipping them into an easy sauce of yogurt spiked with a spoonful of Dijon mustard. Easily made in a frying pan, this tagine goes well with couscous, or a quinoa or bulgur pilaf, though that might depend on your Passover traditions, and Moroccan Jews do not allow rice or couscous. The dish can easily be made a day or two in advance and refrigerated or even frozen.

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 large lemons
8 fresh globe artichokes (or 8 frozen artichoke bottoms, quartered, or about 1 1/2 cups frozen artichoke hearts)
6 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (about 2 pounds total)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium yellow onion, diced
4 garlic cloves, chopped
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, plus more to garnish
1/2 teaspoon saffron
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 1/2 cups chicken broth, plus more if needed

Steps:

  • If using fresh artichokes, fill a large bowl with water. Cut 1 lemon in half then squeeze the juice into the water; add the spent lemon halves to the bowl, too.
  • Prepare the artichokes one at a time, rubbing them all over with the spent lemon halves as you cut and expose the inner artichoke heart. First, cut off at least 1 inch of the thorny top. Trim the stem near the heart, leaving about 2 inches of stem if possible, then peel off the outer green fiber of the stem. Using your fingers, tear off the tough outer leaves, then switch to a sharp paring or bird's beak knife, when necessary, to shave more inner artichoke leaves until you reach the tender pale green or yellow leaves and create a bulbous shape. Gently open the leaves and remove the choke using a grapefruit spoon or melon baller, then scrape and tear (or slice) the remaining leaves off so that only the bottom remains. Cut the artichoke heart in quarters; put the quarters in the lemon water as you work to prevent discoloration. Discard the rest of the artichoke, leaves and stem, or reserve for another use.
  • Pat chicken dry, then season all over with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, warm the olive oil over medium-high heat, then add the chicken, skin-side down. Cook, undisturbed until well browned, 7 to 8 minutes. Flip and brown the other side, about 5 minutes. Transfer chicken thighs to a plate and spoon out about 3 tablespoons of fat from the pan, if desired. (You can discard the excess fat or save for another use.)
  • Return the skillet to medium heat and add the onion, garlic, parsley and saffron. Season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle the cinnamon over the onion, then stir to combine.
  • Add the broth to deglaze, scraping the bottom of the pan, and bring to a simmer over medium-high. Return the chicken to the pan, nestling it into the pan skin-side up. Arrange the artichokes between the chicken pieces, cover, and simmer over medium-low until the chicken is cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the chicken with a slotted spoon and transfer to a plate.
  • Raise the heat to medium-high and cook until the sauce is thickened and the artichokes slightly browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in the juice from half the remaining lemon, taste, and adjust with salt and more lemon juice if needed. Spoon artichokes and pan sauces over the chicken, sprinkle with parsley to garnish, and serve.

ARTICHOKES WITH LEMON AND DILL



Artichokes with Lemon and Dill image

In this classic vegetable preparation, the cooking liquid is used to make the velvety sauce. The dish is normally served at room temperature, but it's equally good warm.

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons plus 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
6 fresh artichokes (about 3 3/4 pounds)
1 lemon, halved
1/3 cup olive oil
8 green onions, chopped (about 2 cups)
3 cups (or more) water
1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
2 teaspoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons all purpose flour

Steps:

  • Pour 2 tablespoons lemon juice into large bowl of water. Cut stem from 1 artichoke; pull off and discard 3 outer bottom layers of leaves, exposing pale green base. Carefully trim artichoke base and leaf ends. Cut artichoke in half. Using small spoon, remove choke and prickly leaves from center. Rub cut edges of artichoke with cut side of lemon half. Place artichoke in bowl of water and lemon juice. Repeat trimming of remaining artichokes, placing each in water with lemon juice.
  • Heat oil in large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add green onions; sauté until tender, about 3 minutes. Add 3 cups water, dill, sugar, salt and 1/4 cup lemon juice. Bring to simmer. Drain artichokes; add to Dutch oven. Cover, simmer until artichoke bottoms are tender and leaves can be pulled off easily, occasionally pushing artichokes under water, about 30 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer artichokes to platter; reserve cooking liquid. Test artichokes with foil to keep warm, if desired.
  • Place flour in small bowl. Whisk in 1/2 cup cooking liquid. Pour flour mixture into liquid in Dutch oven; bring to boil, stirring. Cook until sauce thickens, stirring constantly and thinning with more water if necessary, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Pour over artichokes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor. Fresh lemon, artichokes, and dill will make a big difference in the taste of the dish.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken is best when it is cooked through but still tender and juicy. Overcooking will make it dry and tough.
  • Make sure the artichokes are cooked through before adding them to the dish. Artichokes can take a while to cook, so it's important to make sure they are tender before adding them to the chicken and sauce.
  • Use a good quality white wine for the sauce. A dry white wine will add a nice flavor to the sauce without overpowering the other ingredients.
  • Serve the dish immediately after it is cooked. This will ensure that the chicken and artichokes are hot and the sauce is warm and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Lemon chicken and artichokes with dill sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of tangy lemon, savory artichokes, and creamy dill sauce is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new and exciting dish to try, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed!
