Butter Vinegar Sauce For Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet until foaming, then, a few pieces at a time, brown the chicken well on all sides. You're not cooking the chicken here; just making the skin crisp and giving it color, so 5 minutes per side is about right. Remove the chicken to a plate.
• Add the garlic to the pan and cook about 10 minutes. Deglaze the pan with the vinegar and boil to reduce by half, 10 to 15 minutes. Return the chicken to the pan. Add the tomatoes and tomato paste. Using a piece of kitchen twine, tie together the thyme, parsley, and bay leaf. Add the herb bundle to the chicken and simmer, uncovered, until the meat falls from the bone, about 30 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a dish, cover, and keep warm.
• Pour the stock into the pan juices and boil until thickened, about 10 minutes. Strain into a saucepan, and if it's still not concentrated enough for you liking, boil it down a little more. Whisk in the remaining tablespoon of butter. Season, and pour over the chicken. Serve with chopped parsley, sprinkled over, and with a bowl of roasted or mashed potatoes on the side.

Steps:

• Make sure chicken parts are patted dry.
• Season them.
• Heat olive oil in large sauté pan or dutch oven.
• Lay the chicken skin side down (cook the chicken in batches if the pan is not large enough) turn chicken to allow it to brown evenly on all sides (about 3 minutes each side.).
• Add butter, diced onion, garlic cloves, and sauté for a few more minutes.
• Remove any access fat.
• Deglaze the pot with the white wine vinegar and reduce the liquid COMPLETELY.
• Add the bouquet garni, white wine, chicken stock and diced tomatoes to the pot.
• Bring to a boil, lower the heat to a slow simmer, cover and simmer for 30 minutes.
• Take off the lid, raise the temperature to medium, take out the herb sachet and cook for another 10 minutes (patience, patience! this process will reduce the liquid and thicken the sauce).
• Plate chicken with the sauce and garnish chopped parsley.

Steps:

• Mix together.
• (I use a clean half gallon container for easy pouring and mixing).
• Use it as a basting sauce for chicken on the grill.

Steps:

• For the spice rub: Toast the fennel seeds, coriander seeds, and peppercorns in a small heavy pan over medium heat. When the fennel turns light brown, add the cinnamon, salt, chili powder, and red pepper flakes and toss. Immediately turn the spice mixture out onto a plate to cool. Put into a food processor with the small bowl attachment and blend until the spices are evenly ground. Makes about 1 cup.
• For the brine: Combine all the ingredients, except ice, in a stockpot, bring to a boil, and stir to dissolve the solids. Remove from the heat, add ice, and cool to room temperature. Refrigerate until thoroughly chilled.
• Put the chickens in the brine, cover, and refrigerate for 4 to 8 hours. Turn the chickens once half way through brining. Remove the chickens from the brine and pat them dry. Remove the backbones and split the chickens in half. Coat with 1/2 cup toasted spice rub on all sides, pressing into the skin. Put the chickens on a cookie sheet and put them into the refrigerator, uncovered, overnight to dry.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Heat a 14 to 16-inch saute pan or roasting pan over medium-high heat and add the butter. When it is melted place the chicken halves in the pan, skin side down. Cook on the stove for approximately 5 minutes, basting with the pan juices. Put chickens into the oven and roast for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and turn the chickens over on a cookie sheet to rest for 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer chicken to a platter.
• Put the roasting pan back on the stove, heat the pan juices to simmering, add the thyme and vinegar, and reduce by half. Spoon some of the vinaigrette over the arugula. Serve with tomato slices and Olive Oil Braised Potatoes. Spoon the rest of the sauce over the chicken and dig in.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Sprinkle them on both sides with 1 1/2 teaspoons each salt and pepper.
• Heat a large oven-proof skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium-high heat. Add the chicken thighs to the skillet skin-side down and cook, moving them around once or twice to ensure even browning, until the skin is very golden brown, 11 to 12 minutes.
• Turn off the heat. Grasp a wad of paper towels with tongs and mop up excess fat in the bottom of the skillet-this will prevent the grease from spattering all over your oven; carefully discard the paper towel. Repeat several times until there's only a thin film of oil over the bottom of the skillet.
• Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast until the chicken is almost cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Flip the thighs so they are skin side up, then continue roasting until no longer pink near the bone, another 6 minutes. Remove the skillet from the oven and transfer the chicken thighs to a plate, skin side up. Wipe out the skillet and set aside.
• Meanwhile, start your sauce. Combine the vinegar, wine, shallots, lemon juice and bay leaves in a heavy 2-quart saucepan. Simmer over medium heat until the mixture is reduced to a wet paste, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the cream and continue to simmer until the mixture is reduced to about 2 tablespoons.
• Reduce the heat to low and remove the bay leaves. Add a few chunks of the butter and whisk constantly until melted, then add a few more chunks and whisk again until melted. Continue adding and whisking the butter, which should melt into a creamy emulsion, until all the butter is incorporated, about 4 minutes. Do not let the sauce go over 130 degrees F or it will separate. If the sauce starts to break, remove from the heat, add 2 ice cubes and whisk until it cools down and comes back together.
• Season the sauce with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a pinch of pepper. Transfer it to the cast iron skillet, nestle the chicken on top and sprinkle the whole dish with chives. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Pat chicken pieces dry with paper towels and season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper.
• Heat 2 teaspoons oil and butter in a large heavy casserole or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add half the chicken pieces and cook, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove to a large plate. Add 2 teaspoons oil to the pot. Add the remaining chicken and cook, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove to the plate.
• Heat 2 more teaspoons oil. Add shallots and garlic and cook, stirring, until the shallots are soft and lightly browned, about 1 minute. Add vinegar and bring to a simmer. Return the chicken to the pot. Pour in broth and then carefully nestle the thyme sprigs among the chicken pieces (or stir in dry thyme).
• Cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid and simmer over medium-low heat until the chicken is very tender, about 50 minutes.
• Just before the chicken is done, whisk sour cream, mustard, tomato paste and flour in a small bowl until smooth. Combine tomatoes, chives, the remaining 1 teaspoon oil and pinch of salt in another small bowl; reserve for
• When the chicken is done, remove to a plate, discarding the thyme sprigs (if using). Stir the sour cream mixture into the sauce; bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low, return the chicken to the sauce and reheat, about 1 minute. Serve garnished with the tomato mixture.
