Pub Style Chicken And Caramelized Onions Recipes

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 tablespoons oil, 2 tablespoons vinegar, the honey, mustard, red-pepper flakes and 1 teaspoon salt; whisk until smooth. Pat the chicken dry and season with salt and pepper, then add to the mixture, coating it well. Set aside at room temperature, stirring it once while you make the onions.
• Heat a 12-inch cast-iron or heavy skillet over medium-high until very hot, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, then add the onions in an even layer. Season with salt, then cook, mostly undisturbed, for 4 minutes more, stirring every minute or so. Add the mushrooms, season with salt, and stir to combine. (It will look crowded, and that's OK.) Allow to cook mostly undisturbed until the mushrooms shrink and start to brown, about 4 minutes, stirring every minute or so.
• Stir in the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil and allow the onions to cook until they start to color, stirring and lowering the heat as necessary to avoid burning, about 2 minutes. Push the onions and mushrooms to the edges of the skillet, then add the chicken pieces to the center. Pour any remaining marinade (there will be very little) over the onions and mushrooms. Cook undisturbed for 4 to 5 minutes, then combine the chicken and vegetables and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through, about 10 minutes more. (Reduce the heat to medium if the onions look like they are burning at any point.)
• Add the remaining 2 teaspoons sherry vinegar, stirring and scraping up anything on the bottom of the skillet. Season to taste with salt.
• Remove from the heat and top with the parsley and cheese, if using. Serve with bread or pasta.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400ºF.
• Melt butter in large skillet on medium heat. Add onions; cover. Cook 9 min. or until onions are tender, uncovering after 3 min. and stirring frequently. Stir in garlic; cook 8 to 10 min. or until onions are golden brown, stirring occasionally. Stir in 3 Tbsp. steak sauce and sugar; cook and stir 2 min.
• Place chicken in shallow baking dish. Mix remaining steak sauce and mustard; spread over chicken. Top with onions.
• Bake 30 min. or until chicken is done (165ºF). Serve topped with cheese and sauce from bottom of dish.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Bring garlic cloves and milk to boil in heavy medium saucepan over high heat. Drain. Discard milk. Transfer garlic cloves to 8x8x2-inch metal baking pan. Add 3 tablespoons oil and toss to coat. Roast until golden, about 13 minutes. Cool slightly. Transfer garlic with its cooking oil to processor; blend to form paste. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (Garlic paste can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
• Melt butter and 1 tablespoon oil in heavy large skillet over medium-low heat. Add onions and sauté until golden brown, stirring occasionally, about 40 minutes. Add vinegar, thyme, and bay leaf. Simmer until liquid is reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Stir in cream. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, preheat oven to 450°F. Heat remaining 3 tablespoons oil in heavy large nonstick skillet over high heat. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Working in 2 batches, add chicken, skin side down, to skillet and cook until skin is golden brown (do not turn), about 4 minutes. Place chicken, skin side up, on large rimmed baking sheet. Roast until chicken is cooked through and juices run clear when thigh is pierced with knife, about 20 minutes. Spread garlic paste atop chicken halves, dividing equally. Bake until golden brown, about 5 minutes longer.
• Rewarm onions over medium-low heat, stirring often. Spoon onions in center of 4 plates. Place chicken halves atop onions. Sprinkle with parsley; serve.

Steps:

• In a bowl, dissolve ¼ cup salt in 1 quart water; add the onions and weight them gently with a plate that fits inside the bowl.
• Let them stand 8 to 12 hours.
• Drain the onions, and peel them; return them to the bowl.
• Make a brine with the remaining salt and water, pour it over the onions, and weight them gently again.
• Let them stand 2 days.
• In a nonreactive saucepan, bring the sugar and vinegar to a boil; let the liquid cool.
• Drain and rinse the onions, and drain them well again.
• In a 1-quart jar, layer the onions, peppercorns, allspice, pepper flakes, and bay leaf.
• Cover them with the cooled, sweetened vinegar.
• Cover the jar with a nonreactive cap, preferably all plastic.
• Refrigerate the jar for at least 1 month before eating the onions.
• They will keep for at least 6 months.

Steps:

• Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add onions; cook about 3 minutes or until soft, stirring frequently. Stir in brown sugar, vinegar and soy sauce. Reduce heat to medium; cook 6 to 8 minutes or until onions are deep golden brown and very tender, stirring occasionally.
• Meanwhile, bake dinner rolls as directed on package.
• To assemble sandwiches, split warm rolls. Layer caramelized onions, chicken, lettuce and tomato on bottom halves of rolls. Spread top halves with mustard; cover sandwiches with top halves of rolls.
