Skillet Roasted Lemon Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Place the thyme, fennel seeds, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper in a mini food processor and process until ground. Pour the olive oil into a small glass measuring cup, stir in the herb mixture, and set aside.
• Distribute the lemon slices in a 12-inch cast-iron skillet and distribute the onion and garlic on top.
• Place the chicken, skin side down, on top of the onion and brush with about half the oil and herb mixture. Turn the chicken skin side up, pat it dry with paper towels (very important!), and brush it all over with the rest of the oil and herb mixture.
• Roast the chicken for 30 minutes. Pour the wine into the pan (not on the chicken!) and roast for another 10 to 15 minutes, until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast registers 155 to 160 degrees.
• Remove the chicken from the oven, sprinkle it with the lemon juice and the leaves of 1 rosemary sprig, cover the skillet tightly with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 10 to 15 minutes. Cut the chicken into quarters, and serve hot with the pan juices, cooked lemon, and onion.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook gemelli in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain and reserve 1 cup pasta cooking water.
• Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon butter and allow to melt. Season chicken strips with Italian seasoning, garlic granules, and salt. Once butter is melted, add seasoned chicken strips and cook until strips are a golden color, about 5 minutes. Add portobello mushrooms and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
• Remove chicken and mushrooms from the skillet. Set aside on a plate and keep warm.
• Wipe out skillet and add 1 tablespoon oil and 1 tablespoon butter. Melt butter over medium heat and add garlic; cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add thyme sprigs and lemon zest. Cook for 30 seconds, stirring often. Pour in wine and lemon juice. Continue to cook and stir until sauce has reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Whisk in flour to thicken sauce and create a roux. Gradually add broth, whisking continuously, until you have a thick sauce. Add spinach and cook for 1 minute.
• Stir in 1/2 of the Gruyere cheese and stir until well combined. Once cheese has melted, add remaining cheese and stir until melted. If sauce is too thick, gradually stir in reserved pasta cooking water to thin out the sauce.
• Add cooked pasta to the skillet and toss until well combined with the sauce. Add chicken and mushrooms, adjust seasoning to taste, and serve immediately.
