EASY PAN-ROASTED CHICKEN AND SHALLOTS



Easy Pan-Roasted Chicken and Shallots image

Shallots are the perfect size for roasting whole with larger cuts of meat. When halved or quartered with chicken breasts, they make a quick weeknight dinner, complete with a pan sauce. If you have champagne vinegar or white wine vinegar on hand, add a splash to the sauce just before serving.

Time 25m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 bone-in chicken breasts, skin on, halved (about 10 ounces each)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 medium shallots, peeled and quartered lengthwise through the root (about 8 ounces)
4 medium shallots, peeled and quartered lengthwise through the root (about 8 ounces)
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
3/4 cup chicken stock, plus 1/2 cup more if needed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Sprinkle both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
  • Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat for 2 minutes. Working quickly, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter, swirling it around the pan. Add the chicken, skin side down. Add the shallots, cut side down and not overlapping. Cook until the chicken and shallots are browned on the bottom, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip the shallots and chicken, nestle in the rosemary sprigs, then carefully pour in the chicken stock.
  • Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast until the chicken is cooked through and the shallots are tender, 12 to 14 minutes, removing the smaller pieces of chicken first as they become cooked. Transfer the chicken to a serving plate.
  • Check the skillet with the shallots to make sure the stock has not evaporated; if less than a few tablespoons remain, add 1/2 cup more stock or water. Reduce the pan juices over medium heat until about 1/2 cup of liquid remains, about 2 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter with a wooden spoon to thicken the pan sauce until it coats the spoon. Remove the rosemary and season the sauce with salt and pepper. Spoon some of the sauce over the chicken and scallions and the rest onto the plate.

Time 55m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 thigh, bone and skin removeds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound carrots, cut into 2-inch pieces
½ onion, cut in 1/2-inch thick slices
1 teaspoon minced garlic
½ cup dry white wine
3 tablespoons water, divided
2 teaspoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Blot chicken thighs with paper towels and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Melt butter with olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Place chicken thighs in the hot oil and cook until browned, about 4 minutes per side. Remove chicken from the skillet and keep warm.
  • Add carrots, onion, and minced garlic to the same skillet, stirring to coat with pan drippings. Season with salt and pepper and cook for about 2 minutes. Nestle browned chicken thighs into the vegetables, pour wine and 2 tablespoons water over everything, and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
  • Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer until carrots are fork-tender and chicken juices run clear, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove chicken and vegetables from the skillet with a slotted spoon.
  • Combine cornstarch and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl, stirring to dissolve any lumps. Add slurry to the drippings in the skillet and bring to a boil, stirring constantly; cook until thickened, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Pour sauce over chicken pieces and vegetables and sprinkle with fresh parsley to serve.

SKILLET ROAST CHICKEN WITH CARAMELIZED SHALLOTS



Skillet Roast Chicken With Caramelized Shallots image

Chicken, shallots, a splash of oil and vinegar - that's all you need to make this deeply flavorful one-pot dish. The shallots caramelize and sweeten under the crisping chicken, while vinegar adds tang to keep things interesting. You could toss in mustard, herbs, fresh chile or toasted spices with the vinegar for a twist. Don't forget some crusty bread or rice; you'll want either as a landing pad for the sweet, schmaltzy shallots and pan juices.

Categories     dinner, weekday, poultry, main course

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 to 4 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken pieces
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
15 shallots, peeled, trimmed and halved through the root
2 tablespoons sherry vinegar, red wine vinegar or balsamic vinegar

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 425 degrees. Pat the chicken dry and season it on all sides with salt and pepper.
  • In a large (12-inch) oven-proof skillet, working in batches as needed to avoid crowding, add the oil, then add the chicken pieces, skin-side down. Turn the heat to medium-high and cook, undisturbed, until the skin is crisp and releases easily from the skillet, and the fat is rendered, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a plate and repeat with additional chicken pieces as needed.
  • Add the shallots to the skillet, season with salt and pepper and arrange so most are cut-side down. Cook, undisturbed, until browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip the shallots and repeat until browned on the other side, another 5 minutes.
  • Add the vinegar and scrape the bottom of the pan to release any browned bits. Add the chicken, skin-side up, on top of the shallots. Roast until the shallots have collapsed and the chicken is cooked through, about 45 minutes. Check the chicken halfway through. If the skillet looks dry, add a few tablespoons of water. Serve the chicken and shallots with the pan juices.

1 (3 1/2-4-lb.) chicken
Kosher salt
1 head of garlic, halved crosswise, plus 4 cloves, thinly sliced

2 Tbsp. unsalted butter
1 Tbsp. honey
2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
1 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 cup fresh lime juice

4 bone-in, skin-on chicken breast halves
4 cloves garlic, minced, or more to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 ½ teaspoons salt, or more to taste
freshly cracked black pepper to taste
1 sprig fresh rosemary, leaves stripped and finely chopped
8 carrots, peeled and chopped
4 red potatoes, quartered
2 slices onion

Lower the temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and cook until vegetables are tender and chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 20 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Categories     vegetables, side dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 pounds carrots, peeled and halved, or quartered lengthwise into long, thin sticks
5 small or 3 large shallots, peeled and cut lengthwise into 1/2-inch-thick wedges (about 1 1/4 cups)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup panko bread crumbs
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan
1 fat garlic clove, minced or finely grated
1/4 teaspoon red-pepper flakes, plus more for serving
6 ounces mozzarella, hand-pulled or chopped into small pieces (1 1/2 cups)
1/4 cup green olives, pitted and rough chopped
1 to 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice, plus more to taste
1/3 cup fresh basil, dill or mint, torn

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. Place carrots and shallots on a rimmed baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper, and toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil until well coated. Roast for 25 minutes, rotating pan halfway through. (The shallots will start to shrivel and brown at the edges, but they won't be cooked through yet.)
  • In a small bowl, stir together bread crumbs, Parmesan, garlic, red-pepper flakes, remaining 3 tablespoons oil and a pinch of salt, tossing until well combined.
  • Sprinkle mozzarella and olives all over carrots and shallots, then top with the seasoned bread crumbs. Continue to roast until the vegetables are golden brown and tender, 12 to 15 minutes longer. Just before serving, drizzle lemon juice all over the top and garnish with herbs.

ROASTED CARROTS AND SHALLOTS



Roasted Carrots and Shallots image

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Fall Recipes

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 pounds carrots, peeled and cut into 3-inch pieces, tops reserved for garnish (optional)
8 ounces shallots (about 6), peeled and cut in half lengthwise
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
2 cups safflower oil (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place carrots and shallots on a rimmed baking sheet, and toss with olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Spread in a single layer, and roast 40 minutes, turning a few times to ensure even cooking.
  • If frying carrot tops for garnish, bring safflower oil to 350 degrees in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Fry carrot tops in batches until crisp, about 45 seconds. Drain on a paper-towel-lined plate, and season with salt.
  • Place vegetables around beef tenderloin; garnish with fried carrot tops.

Tips:

  • Ensure Proper Defrosting: If using frozen chicken, thaw it completely in the refrigerator overnight or use the defrost setting on your microwave. Never cook a frozen chicken directly, as this increases the risk of uneven cooking and bacterial contamination.
  • Preheat Your Oven: Always preheat your oven to the desired temperature before placing the chicken inside. This helps the chicken cook evenly and prevents it from drying out.
  • Season Generously: Don't be shy with the seasonings! Use a combination of salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices to give the chicken a flavorful crust. You can also add aromatics like garlic and shallots for extra depth of flavor.
  • Roast at High Temperature: Initially, roast the chicken at a high temperature (425°F or 220°C) for 15-20 minutes. This will help to brown the skin and lock in the juices.
  • Reduce Heat and Continue Roasting: After the initial high-temperature roasting, reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue to roast the chicken until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). This ensures that the chicken is cooked thoroughly while maintaining its moisture.
  • Let the Chicken Rest: Once the chicken is cooked, let it rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful chicken.

Conclusion:

Roast chicken with carrots and shallots is a classic dish that is both delicious and easy to prepare. With careful attention to seasoning, roasting technique, and resting time, you can create a flavorful and succulent chicken that is perfect for any occasion. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad, for a complete and satisfying meal. Enjoy!
