Categories     Carrot     Chicken     Potato     Dinner     Lunch     Sauté     Quick & Easy

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 Chicken Thighs
1 Sweet or Spanish Onion
3 Carrots
2 tablespoons Olive Oil
3 Medium Potatoes
2 teaspoons Seasoning Salt, Herb Blend, or Your Favorite Spices
1/2 cup Dry White Wine

Steps:

  • Step 1: Add 1 Tbsp. oil to medium skillet, and heat over medium-high heat. Season the chicken thighs, and add to the skillet, cooking 5 minutes a side or until nice color develops on both sides. Remove.
  • Step 2: While the chicken cooks, slice onion, carrot, and potato into thin bite-size pieces, medallions for the carrots and potatoes, slices for the onion.
  • Step 3: Add remaining oil and potatoes and carrots, sautéing for 5-6 minutes. Add onion, and sauté until nice color develops, another 5 minutes.
  • Step 4: Before fully cooked, add the chicken thighs back to the pan, add the white wine, and cover. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the thighs register at 165 degrees.

Tips for Making One-Pan Chicken Thighs and Vegetables:

  • Use bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs. The bones and skin add flavor and help keep the chicken moist.
  • Season the chicken thighs generously with salt and pepper. This will help them develop a nice crispy skin.
  • Use a variety of vegetables. This will add color, flavor, and nutrients to the dish.
  • Cut the vegetables into uniform pieces. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. If the pan is too crowded, the vegetables will steam instead of roast.
  • Roast the chicken thighs and vegetables at a high temperature. This will help them brown and caramelize.
  • Baste the chicken thighs and vegetables with the pan juices halfway through cooking. This will help keep them moist and flavorful.
  • Serve the chicken thighs and vegetables immediately. They are best when served hot out of the oven.

Conclusion:

One-pan chicken thighs and vegetables is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a busy weeknight dinner. This dish is also a great way to get your daily dose of protein and vegetables. With a little planning, you can have a healthy and flavorful meal on the table in under an hour.
