Number Of Ingredients 5

3 medium sweet potatoes (1 1/2 to 2 pounds), scrubbed well
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
3/4 cup pure maple syrup
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
Small sprigs fresh thyme, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Slice each sweet potato in half lengthwise, and slice each half crosswise into 1-inch-thick half-moons.
  • Melt butter in a large cast-iron or other ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add sweet potatoes; toss to coat evenly. Add maple syrup; toss potatoes to coat, and bring to a boil.
  • Transfer skillet to oven; cook, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are golden, well glazed, and tender when pierced with a paring knife, about 20 minutes. Remove from oven, and season with salt and pepper. Serve hot, garnished with thyme.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 pound fingerling potatoes
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt, such as Lawry's
One 3 to 4-pound chicken, cut into 8 pieces
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon seasoned salt, such as Lawry's
1/4 cup pure maple syrup
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1 clove garlic, lightly crushed
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon pure maple syrup
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup olive oil
2 heads butter lettuce, leaves separated

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • For the potatoes: Place the potatoes in a medium saucepan, cover with cold water by 1 inch and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are tender when pierced with the tip of a sharp knife, about 15 minutes. (This is a good time to start the chicken.)
  • Drain the potatoes and transfer to a large skillet (not nonstick). Gently flatten the potatoes so the skin bursts but the potatoes still hold together (see Cook's Note).
  • Drizzle the olive oil all over the potatoes and set the skillet over medium heat. Cook for about 8 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the potatoes are golden brown on both sides. Sprinkle all over with the seasoned salt and gently toss to coat.
  • For the chicken: Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil to the skillet and make sure it gets very hot. Pat the chicken dry with paper towels and sprinkle all over with the seasoned salt. Place the chicken skin-side down in the skillet and cook, undisturbed, until the skin is golden but not too dark, 4 to 5 minutes. Without flipping the chicken over, bake until firm to the touch and an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part (avoiding the bone) registers 165 degrees F, 12 to 14 minutes. (This is a good time to finish the potatoes.)
  • Remove the skillet from the oven and flip the chicken. Brush the skin with the maple syrup. Drizzle any of the remaining maple syrup over the chicken.
  • For the salad: Whisk the vinegar, garlic, mustard, maple syrup, salt and olive oil together in a medium bowl until combined; season with pepper. Set aside so the garlic can infuse the dressing, about 5 minutes. Remove the garlic and lightly toss the lettuce with the dressing in the bowl.

MAPLE-GLAZED CHICKEN

This one-pan dish is filled with the flavors of fall. Maple syrup adds sweetness and depth to the tangy cider-infused glaze that coats tender pan-roasted chicken, apple wedges and shallots.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 pounds skin-on, bone-in chicken breasts, cut into large chunks
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 apples (1 red, 1 green), cored and cut into wedges
8 medium shallots, quartered lengthwise
1/4 cup fresh sage leaves, torn
1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1/4 cup pure maple syrup
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar

Steps:

  • Pat the chicken dry and season all over with salt. Heat a large heavy skillet over high heat and add the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the chicken skin-side down and cook, undisturbed, until the skin is browned and crisp, about 5 minutes.
  • Turn the chicken and add the apples, shallots and sage to the skillet. Reduce the heat to medium high and cook until the chicken is browned on the bottom, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate and continue to cook the apples and shallots, stirring, until golden, about 2 more minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the glaze: Mix the chicken broth, maple syrup, vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Add the mixture to the skillet with the apples and shallots and boil until reduced by about three-quarters, 2 to 3 minutes. Return the chicken to the skillet, turning to coat, until cooked through, about 2 more minutes.
