Crispy Onion Dijon Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Place the chicken thighs on a cutting board, skin side up, and pat them dry with paper towels. Sprinkle the chicken with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 3/4 teaspoon pepper. Turn them over and sprinkle them with one more teaspoon of salt.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large (11 to 12-inch) cast-iron skillet over medium heat. When the oil is hot, place the chicken in the pan in one layer, skin side down. Cook over medium heat for 15 minutes without moving, until the skin is golden brown. (If the skin gets too dark, turn the heat to medium low.) Turn the chicken pieces with tongs, add the onions to the pan, including under the chicken, and cook over medium heat for 15 minutes, stirring the onions occasionally, until the thighs are cooked to 155 to 160 degrees and the onions are browned. Transfer the chicken (not the onions) to a plate and allow to rest uncovered while you make the sauce. If the onions aren't browned, cook them for another minute.
• Add the wine, creme fraiche, Dijon mustard, whole-grain mustard, and 1 teaspoon salt to the skillet and stir over medium heat for one minute. Return the chicken, skin side up, and the juices to the skillet, sprinkle with parsley, and serve hot.

Steps:

• In a shallow bowl, combine butter, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, garlic salt and pepper. In another shallow bowl, place 1/2 cup crushed onions. Dip chicken in butter mixture, then coat with onions. , Place in a greased 9-in. square baking pan. Top with remaining onions; drizzle with any remaining butter mixture. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 30-35 minutes or until a thermometer reads 170°.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°.
• Just melt, don't cook, butter in small saucepan or microwave.
• Add worcestershire sauce and mustard.
• Dip chicken in butter mixture and coat well with crushed onions.
• Place in baking dish and bake for 45 minutes or until juices run clear.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Put the butter in a 9 or 10 inch square baking dish and put it in the oven while it is heating up.
• Don't use a dish that is too big or the butter will end up spreading out too far from the chicken. This whole first part is very important and will help make your chicken end up crispy.
• In one bowl, whisk together the mustard and half and half.
• In another bowl, mix together the cracker crumbs and the cheese.
• When the oven is completely heated up and the butter is sizzling in the baking dish, remove the pan from the oven and set it on a trivet on the counter next to your two mixtures.
• Dip the chicken in the wet mixture; dredge in the crumb mixture.
• This step is important. Put the chicken down in the dish and turn it over right away. The idea is to put it in the butter briefly and turn it over so the butter side is up. It makes the chicken get evenly crispy. I use this technique for all of my oven "frying" because it works so well.
• Bake for approximately 45 minutes or so, depending on the thickness of the chicken breasts.
• Leave them in there until the coating is browned real nicely. Mine are usually perfect at 45 minutes.
