Dijon Chicken Thighs Recipes

Steps:

• Position a rack in the center of the oven; preheat to 425 degrees F. Lightly oil a rimmed baking sheet.
• Combine the butter and garlic in a large microwave-safe bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave to melt the butter, about 1 minute. Whisk in the Dijon and 1/4 teaspoon of the cayenne.
• In another large bowl, combine the panko, Parmesan, chives, paprika and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon cayenne. Sprinkle the chicken thighs with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Dip the chicken in the mustard mixture to coat and roll in the panko on all sides. Arrange on the prepared baking sheet so the pieces do not touch.
• Bake on the center oven rack until the coating is browned and crispy and the chicken is no longer pink near the bone, about 40 minutes.
• Transfer to a large platter and serve.

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium heat; lightly coat the grates with vegetable oil.
• Whisk together the vinegar, mustard, Worcestershire, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a generous grinding of pepper in a large bowl. While whisking, slowly drizzle in the olive oil until the dressing is smooth and thick. Transfer half to a small bowl and whisk in the parsley and tarragon; set aside. Add the chicken to the dressing remaining in the large bowl and toss to coat.
• Grill skin-side down until lightly charred, 2 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 5 minutes. Cover the grill and cook until no longer pink near the bone and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the deepest part of each chicken thigh reads 165 degrees F, about 5 minutes more. Transfer to a platter and rest for at least 5 minutes before serving.
• While the chicken rests, grill the romaine, turning to slightly char all sides, until the core end is tender, about 5 minutes. Put 1 wedge of romaine on each of 4 serving plates; top with 2 chicken thighs and drizzle with the reserved herbed dressing. ?

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Combine garlic, salt, Italian seasoning, and pepper in a small bowl; sprinkle evenly over chicken thighs.
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a 12-inch cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add chicken thighs and cook until browned, about 5 minutes. Flip thighs over and turn heat off. Remove skillet from heat.
• Melt 1/4 cup butter for sauce over medium heat in a saucepan. Add shallot once foam subsides and sauté until soft and just golden, about 4 minutes. Remove saucepan from the heat and pour in whiskey.
• Return saucepan to heat and allow flame to burn off the alcohol. Add cream, Dijon, and maple syrup and stir to combine. Bring to a gentle boil and cook until sauce thickens slightly, 1 to 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Pour 1/2 of the sauce over the chicken thighs. Reserve remaining sauce.
• Carefully transfer the cast iron skillet to the preheated oven. Bake until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 20 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Add thyme to the reserved sauce, and spoon over chicken thighs to serve.

Steps:

• In a large dry skillet, toast the coriander seeds until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Let cool, then crush coarsely in a mortar with a pestle.
• In the same skillet, heat the olive oil until shimmering. Season the chicken with salt and pepper, then add to the skillet and cook until brown on all sides, about 10 minutes. Add the onion and cook until softened, stirring occasionally, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the broth and crushed coriander and bring to a boil. Cover and cook over medium low heat until the chicken is cooked through, about 15 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a platter, cover and keep warm.
• In a small bowl, whisk the mustard with the creme fraiche and tarragon. Whisk this mixture into the skillet, and simmer until the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes. Return the chicken to the pan, and turn to coat.
• Note: This can be made ahead and refrigerated for up to 3 days.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a large sheet pan or jelly roll pan with aluminum foil and coat with nonstick cooking spray.
• Mix bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Place chicken thighs on the prepared baking sheet. Stir together butter and Dijon in a large bowl. Brush the tops of the chicken thighs with some of the butter-Dijon mixture.
• Add potatoes and green beans to the bowl and toss in the remaining butter-Dijon mixture. Spread vegetables around the chicken onto the baking sheet in an even layer. Season everything with thyme, salt, and pepper. Press the bread crumb mixture onto the top of the chicken thighs.
• Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear and the potatoes can be pierced easily with a fork, 25 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Steps:
