Steps:
- Place a rack in upper third of oven; preheat to 425°F. Mix coriander, cumin, and cayenne in a small bowl. Sprinkle chicken with spice mixture, pressing to adhere; season with salt and pepper.
- Heat oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high. Cook chicken, skin side down, until browned and beginning to crisp, about 5 minutes. Transfer chicken to a plate and arrange pineapple slices in pan. Place chicken, skin side up, on top. Transfer to oven and roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of thigh registers 165°F, 40-45 minutes.
- Meanwhile, bring chile, garlic, pineapple juice, vinegar, brown sugar, and paprika to a boil in a small saucepan and cook until thickened and syrupy, 12-15 minutes; season glaze with salt.
- When chicken is done, brush with glaze and roast just until glaze is bubbling, about 2 minutes; repeat with any remaining glaze. Transfer chicken and pineapple to a cutting board; let rest 10 minutes. Serve chicken and pineapple with any juices from skillet alongside.
RUM AND CHILE ROASTED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH PINEAPPLE
This dish, inspired by jerk chicken, uses amber rum to moisten the rub. The resulting dish is complex, mouth tingling but not searing, and softened by the golden cubes of succulent roasted pineapple. It's not quite recognizable as a jerk, but it is no less pleasing.

PINEAPPLE GLAZED CHICKEN
When I first made this recipe, I couldn't stop eating, and I don't usually eat large quantities of meat in one sitting. This is a very tasty and fast way to prepare chicken breasts--another great recipe from Cook's Illustrated. You can prevent dry, overcooked chicken breasts by using an instant-read thermometer to check when they're done. This can be garnished with parsley, cilantro, scallions, or chives before serving.

Steps:
- Brown chicken: Pat chicken dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. Heat oil in 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until just smoking. Brown chicken lightly on both sides, about 4 minutes total.
- Assemble glaze: Drain pineapple chunks, reserving 1/2 cup juice. Whisk reserved pineapple juice, honey, soy sauce, curry powder, and cayenne together.
- Simmer chicken in glaze: Add pineapple juice mixture and pineapple chunks to skillet and bring to simmer. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until chicken is no longer pink in center and thickest part registers 160 degrees F on instant-read thermometer, 8 to 12 minutes.
- Rest chicken and simmer glaze: Transfer chicken to serving platter, cover with foil, and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes. Return glaze to simmer and cook, uncovered, until thickened slightly and glossy, about 8 minutes.
- Finish glaze: Add accumulated chicken juices to glaze. Whisk cornstarch and vinegar together until smooth, then whisk into glaze. Continue to simmer glaze until thick and syrupy, about 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Pour glaze over chicken, sprinkle with toasted almonds, and serve.
- Note: To toast the 1/4 cup almonds, put them in a dry skillet over medium heat. Shake the skillet occasionally to prevent scorching and toast until they are lightly browned and fragrant, 3 to 8 minutes.

MAPLE ROASTED CHICKEN
This sweet, well-seasoned dish is great for Sunday dinner. You only have to marinate for an hour, but you could do it up to overnight. Set it up the night before, then simply roast the chicken just before serving. The sticky glaze adds color, but its sweetness is not overpowering, getting some good balance from the vinegar and the smoky paprika. Pair the roasted chicken with sweet potatoes and brussels sprouts or bitter greens, like collard greens and kale, and use any leftovers in a salad or rice bowl the next day.

Steps:
- Using paper towels, pat the chicken dry and trim off any excess fat. Place in a large resealable plastic bag or medium bowl with a lid.
- In a medium bowl, stir together the maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika and 2 tablespoons salt. Pour into the bag with the chicken, seal and refrigerate overnight or for at least 1 hour.
- Heat oven to 400 degrees. Pull the brined chicken out of the fridge, drain off the brine and pat the chicken dry. On a rimmed sheet pan, rub the chicken with the olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt and the pepper.
- Set it skin side up and roast for 25 to 35 minutes, or until the juices run clear when pierced and the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.
- As the chicken roasts, make the glaze: Add the maple syrup, cinnamon, salt, fennel, paprika and ½ cup water to a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the mixture has reduced and thickened enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon.
- Brush the cooked thighs with the glaze and set under the broiler for 30 seconds to 1 minute, keeping an eye on the glaze as it is quick to burn. Serve hot.
Tips:
- Choose the right chicken: A whole chicken is the best option for this recipe, as it will give you the most flavor. You can also use a chicken cut into pieces, but make sure the pieces are all roughly the same size so they cook evenly.
- Season the chicken well: The combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika is a classic seasoning blend that works well with chicken. You can also add other seasonings, such as cumin, chili powder, or oregano, to taste.
- Brown the chicken before roasting: Browning the chicken in a hot skillet before roasting it will help to develop its flavor and color. Make sure to brown the chicken on all sides.
- Use a flavorful glaze: The pineapple-chile glaze is what really makes this recipe special. The combination of sweet pineapple, spicy chiles, and tangy vinegar is irresistible. Be sure to brush the glaze on the chicken frequently while it is roasting.
- Let the chicken rest before serving: Once the chicken is cooked through, let it rest for a few minutes before carving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
This pan-roasted chicken with pineapple-chile glaze is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of sweet, spicy, and tangy flavors is sure to please everyone at the table. Serve it with a side of rice or roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
