GRILLED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH CHARRED CORN AND SUMMER SQUASH

After a quick turn on the grill, these flame-kissed boneless thighs get tossed with a minty lemon dressing. Corn and zucchini are next up on the grates-and when you platter everything up with the meat on top, the sauce dresses everything.

Steps:

  • Heat grill to high. In a shallow baking dish, whisk together lemon zest and juice, garlic, shallot, and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in chopped herbs.
  • Season both sides of chicken with salt and pepper; drizzle lightly with olive oil. Brush grates with vegetable oil. Grill chicken, turning once, until charred in places and a thermometer inserted into thickest parts registers 160°F, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to dish and turn to coat with lemon mixture; tent with foil. Cover grill; return to medium-high heat.
  • Drizzle vegetables lightly with olive oil; toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Grill, turning occasionally, until vegetables are charred in places and squash is crisp-tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Let corn cool slightly, then strip kernels from cobs and transfer to a serving platter with squash, cheese, and herb leaves. Top with chicken; spoon more lemon mixture over top, if desired.

1 teaspoon grated lemon zest, plus 1/4 cup fresh juice
3/4 teaspoon grated garlic
1 tablespoon minced shallot
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 cup fresh herbs, such as mint and dill, chopped, plus 1/2 cup whole leaves and sprigs for serving
1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs (4 to 6)
Vegetable oil, for grill
3 ears corn, husks and silks removed
3 large zucchini or summer squash (about 1 1/2 pounds), cut into 3/4-inch-thick rounds
1 ounce Pecorino Romano, shaved (1/2 cup)

  • Cover the pan and let simmer over medium heat, 20 to 30 minutes.

Steps:

  • Place a baking sheet on the top oven rack and preheat to 475 degrees F. Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper; arrange skin-side up on the hot baking sheet, leaving some space between each piece. Bake until the chicken is cooked through and the skin is crisp, 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the squash, leeks and 1/2 cup water. Cover and cook until the squash is almost tender and the leeks are softened, 6 to 7 minutes. Add the sage, escarole and 1/4 cup water; season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cover and cook until the escarole is wilted, 6 to 7 minutes.
  • Gently stir the mustard and maple syrup into the skillet. Season with salt and pepper. Serve the chicken with the squash and escarole.

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C).

  • Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.
  • While squash bakes, combine lime juice, hot sauce, paprika, honey, salt, and pepper. Dry chicken legs and toss in sauce until evenly coated. Place chicken in a separate baking dish.

  • Bake until chicken is no longer pink in the centers and juices run clear and calabaza is soft, about 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone of a leg quarter should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove and plate.

ROASTED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH WINTER SQUASH

Roasted chicken thighs can be the juicy, meaty center of many weeknight meals. Add delicata squash, quickly tossed in a maple syrup-butter glaze, along with slices of lemon and sage, and you have a something more unusual, an interplay of flavors that don't generally meet on the same sheet pan. This recipe is a little too fussy to count as a fast weeknight dish, but there is nothing difficult about any of the steps. And it's a fine introduction to delicata squash, if you haven't cooked with them yet. Unlike many other winter squash varieties, they have a thin skin and don't need to be peeled (just cut them in half and remove the seeds), making them as easy to prepare as they are sweet.

SKILLET CHICKEN THIGHS WITH BROWN BUTTER CORN

This weeknight-friendly recipe pairs sweet corn kernels with sautéed boneless chicken thighs. Easily made in one large skillet, the chicken is cooked first before the corn kernels are added to sauté in the drippings, seasoned with garlic, thyme and plenty of brown butter. Finished with torn basil, lime juice and scallions, it walks the line between rich and sweet, and tangy and fresh - all in under 30 minutes.

Skillet Chicken Thighs With Brown Butter Corn image

Steps:

  • Season chicken all over with salt and pepper. Rub garlic and thyme on chicken, and set aside while preparing the rest of the ingredients.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high. Add oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter, letting butter melt. Add chicken and sear, undisturbed, until browned on both sides, about 4 to 6 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to a plate.
  • Over medium heat, add remaining 2 tablespoons butter to the skillet. Cook, swirling occasionally, until the foam subsides and it smells nutty and toasty, 2 to 3 minutes. (Watch carefully to see that it doesn't burn.) Add corn and a big pinch of salt and black pepper. Sauté until tender and golden brown, 2 minutes.
  • Add chicken back to the skillet. Cover and cook until chicken is cooked through and corn is caramelized, about 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat and taste corn, adding more salt and pepper if needed. Stir in basil and squeeze 2 lime wedges over the top. Serve garnished with sliced scallions and more lime wedges.

4 skinless, boneless chicken thighs (about 1 1/4 pounds)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 garlic cloves, finely grated or minced
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen corn kernels (from 1 to 2 ears; see Tip)
1/2 cup torn basil leaves
Lime wedges, for serving
2 scallions, thinly sliced, for serving

CALABAZA CON POLLO (SQUASH WITH CHICKEN)

This is a wonderful chicken and vegetable dish that I grew up with in Texas. I love the way my mother cooks so I asked her for the recipe but of course she grew up not using measuring utensils so this recipe is my interpretation of her recipe.
