Mustard Braised Chicken Thighs 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:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place a rack on a rimmed baking sheet.
• Trim any fat off of chicken thighs and season with a light coating of adobo and pepper.
• Stir Dijon and melted butter together in a shallow bowl until you have a glossy, buttery mixture. Combine bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese in another bowl.
• Dip chicken thighs in the Dijon mixture until evenly coated, then dredge in the bread crumb mixture. Transfer thighs to the prepared baking sheet and spray the tops with cooking spray.
• Bake in the preheated oven without flipping until no longer pink in the centers, 30 to 35 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Garnish with parsley to serve.

Steps:

• Stir 1 tablespoon oil, 1 tablespoon thyme, 1 1/2 teaspoons marjoram, dry mustard and 1/2 teaspoon rosemary in small bowl until paste forms. Rub paste all over chicken. Place in bowl; chill 2 hours or overnight.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in heavy large pot over medium-high heat. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Add chicken to pot and cook until brown on all sides, about 12 minutes. Transfer to bowl.
• Add onion to pot; sauté over medium-high heat until tender, about 8 minutes. Add garlic; sauté 2 minutes. Add wine, broth, Dijon mustard and 1 tablespoon thyme, 1 1/2 teaspoons marjoram and 1/2 teaspoon rosemary to pot. Bring to boil. Return chicken to pot. Reduce heat to medium-low. Cover; simmer until chicken is cooked, about 25 minutes.
• Transfer chicken to platter; cover to keep warm. Boil liquid in pot until thickened to sauce consistency, whisking often, about 10 minutes. Season sauce with salt and pepper. Pour over chicken.

Steps:

• Season chicken thighs generously on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add chicken and cook until browned, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Add onions and garlic and saute until onions have softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Add chopped tomatoes and juice.
• Mix wine, water, mustard, and soup base together in a bowl; pour over other ingredients and bring to a boil. Lower heat to a simmer, cover, and braise until chicken is tender, about 2 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Steps:

• Lightly season chicken thighs all over with salt and pepper. Heat vegetable oil in a large Dutch oven or other heavy pot over medium-high. Working in 2 batches and pouring off all but 2 Tbsp. fat between batches, cook chicken, skin side down, until skin is browned and crisp, 8-10 minutes. Transfer to a plate, placing skin side up (chicken will not be cooked through at this point).
• Cook white and pale green parts of scallions, chiles, and ginger in same pot, stirring often, until scallions and ginger are golden, about 3 minutes. Add wine, bring to a simmer, and cook until reduced to about 3 Tbsp., 5 minutes. Add soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, and 1 cup broth and bring to a simmer, stirring to dissolve sugar. Return chicken to pot, placing skin side up and overlapping if needed. Partially cover pot, reduce heat, and simmer until chicken is cooked through, 25-30 minutes. Transfer chicken to a plate.
• Add squash and remaining 1 cup broth to pot and push in squash so it's mostly submerged. Arrange greens on top. Bring to a simmer, partially cover pot, and cook until squash is barely fork-tender and greens are wilted, 10-12 minutes. Uncover, increase heat to medium, and continue to cook until liquid is reduced by about two-thirds and has the consistency of thin gravy, 10-15 minutes.
• Remove pot from heat and drizzle vinegar over vegetables. Taste sauce; it should be plenty salty, but season with more salt if needed. Add chicken back to pot, turning to coat in sauce, then scatter dark green parts of scallions and sesame seeds over top. Serve with rice.
• Chicken can be braised 2 days ahead. Let cool; cover and chill. Reheat covered over low.
