Broiled Chicken With Fig Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Sprinkle both sides of chicken evenly with 1 1/2 tsps thyme, 1/4 tsp salt and pepper.
• Heat oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
• Add chicken and cook for 6 minutes on each side or until no longer pink. Remove from pan and keep warm by covering plate with towel or placing in warm oven.
• Reduce heat to medium and add butter to skillet.
• Add onions and saute for 3 minutes.
• Add broth, vinegar, soy sauce and figs.
• Simmer until sauce is reduced to 1 cup (about 3 minutes).
• Add 1 tablespoon thyme and 1/4 tsp salt.
• Cut chicken breasts on the diagonal into slices. Serve sauce over chicken.

Steps:

• Season chicken with salt and pepper on both sides and lightly coat with flour, shaking off excess.
• Heat olive oil and butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add chicken to the skillet and cook until tenders are golden brown, no longer pink in the centers, and juices run clear, 5 to 6 minutes, flipping halfway through. Transfer to a plate and cover loosely with aluminum foil to keep warm.
• Add shallot and garlic to the same skillet and cook until softened, about 2 minutes. Add red wine and balsamic and let simmer until reduced by half, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in figs, thyme, Dijon mustard, honey, and salt; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low or medium-low and let simmer until thickened, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in butter.
• Spoon sauce over warm chicken tenders, or add chicken back into the skillet to briefly reheat, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Place broiler rack 4 to 6 inches from heat source, and turn broiler on.
• Sprinkle chicken on both sides with salt and pepper, and place skin-side down in a pan.
• Place honey in a 4- to 6-cup saucepan with one tablespoon water, and put on high heat.
• Let honey boil for a minute or so, then carefully add wine, cayenne, figs, coriander, orange zest and orange juice.
• Mixture should cook steadily; do not let it boil over.
• Broil chicken until it begins to brown on skinless side.
• Turn it over, then broil until it browns nicely and is cooked all the way through.
• Total broiling time will be about 25 minutes.
• Cook sauce until figs are very tender, about 15 minutes.
• Add lemon juice, then taste, and add more salt, cayenne or lemon as needed.
• Serve chicken with sauce spooned over it.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, toss chicken with salt, rosemary, garlic, citrus zest and pepper. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours and up to overnight (the longer the better).
• Heat oven to 450 degrees. Spread chicken pieces out on two rimmed baking sheets, making sure there is plenty of room between the pieces. Arrange figs among the chicken pieces, then scatter jalapeño slices on top. Drizzle everything generously with olive oil.
• Roast, switching the position of the baking pans after 15 minutes so everything browns evenly, until the chicken is golden and cooked through. This should take about 25 to 30 minutes for the breast meat, and 30 to 40 for the dark meat. Serve chicken with the orange or lemon wedges for squeezing, if you like.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source. Rub olive oil over each chicken breast, then season both sides with salt and black pepper. Place the chicken skin-side down on a broiling pan.
• Broil in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then flip the chicken breast skin-side up. Continue broiling the chicken until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 10 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove from the oven and allow meat to rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Heat grill or grill pan over high heat.
• Season chicken with salt and pepper on all sides and place on grill. Grill chicken until cooked through, about 8 to 10 minutes per side.
• Brush barbecue sauce on cooked chicken and grill for 1 minute more on each side. Serve remaining barbecue sauce on the side.

Steps:

• Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
• Spread onion slices in a single layer on the bottom of a baking dish. Season chicken with salt. Place chicken halves, skin-side down, over onion rings.
• Cook chicken in the preheated oven, turning every 7 minutes, until caramelized, no longer pink at the bone, and the juices run clear, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
