ROASTED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH LEMON, THYME AND ROSEMARY



Roasted Chicken Thighs With Lemon, Thyme and Rosemary image

The ease and deliciousness of this recipe, from the chef Nancy Silverton's cookbook "Mozza at Home," deserves to be emphasized. Though you need several hours of refrigeration to allow the chicken skin to dry out, which makes it crisp, you can be flexible about it; do what's convenient. No matter what, just be sure to pat the skin dry with paper towels. You may also find the final run under the broiler unnecessary. Use your judgment. And also consider swirling in a good splash of white wine or chicken stock to the juices in the baking dish before spooning them on the chicken.

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

12 chicken thighs, bone in and skin on
1 medium onion, peeled, quartered vertically and sliced 1/4-inch thick vertically
1 cup peeled garlic cloves (about 40)
1 lemon cut in 1/4-inch-thick slices, seeded
15 fresh thyme sprigs
4 (3-inch) rosemary sprigs
2 tablespoons kosher salt, or to taste
2 teaspoons ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Pat chicken thighs dry and place, skin side up, in a single layer on a baking sheet. Place in refrigerator, uncovered, for 8 hours or overnight to dry skin. Remove chicken from refrigerator at least 45 minutes before cooking.
  • Heat oven to 500 degrees. Spread onion slices and garlic cloves in a baking dish that can hold the chicken snugly in a single layer. Scatter lemon on the onion-garlic mixture and strew with thyme and rosemary sprigs.
  • Remove chicken from baking sheet and place on several layers of paper towels, skin side down. Sprinkle with half the salt and pepper. Turn thighs over and season with remaining salt and pepper. Transfer to the baking dish skin side up. Use your hands to arrange the bed of onions and garlic so they're completely under the chicken.
  • Bake for 40 to 50 minutes, until juices run clear when chicken is pierced with a knife point. If skin is not a deep golden brown and crispy, turn on broiler and broil chicken close to heat a few minutes to crisp and brown it.
  • To serve, move chicken off the bed of onions, garlic, lemon and herbs. Discard lemon and spoon the rest of the ingredients, along with pan juices, onto a serving platter. Place chicken on top and serve.

Tips:

  • Thaw chicken thighs properly: Place the frozen chicken thighs in a colander set over a bowl in the refrigerator overnight, or for at least 8 hours. This will allow the chicken to thaw evenly and safely.
  • Use a high-quality olive oil: The flavor of the olive oil will come through in the final dish, so it's important to use a good quality oil. Look for an extra virgin olive oil that is cold-pressed and has a fruity flavor.
  • Season the chicken thighs generously: Don't be shy with the salt and pepper. Season the chicken thighs liberally on all sides before cooking to ensure they are well-flavored.
  • Roast the chicken thighs at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy skin and juicy interior. Roast the chicken thighs at 425°F for 20-25 minutes, or until they are cooked through.
  • Let the chicken thighs rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish. Let the chicken thighs rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

Straight-from-the-freezer chicken thighs with rosemary is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is packed with flavor. By following these tips, you can ensure that your chicken thighs are cooked perfectly and that the dish is a hit with your family and friends. You can also experiment with different herbs and spices to create your own unique flavor combinations.
