Baked Chicken With Onions And Peas Recipes

BAKED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH POTATOES AND PEAS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 F.
• In a 3 quart baking dish, toss potatoes with garlic, onion, 2 tablespoons oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon thyme, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Transfer to preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes.
• While potatoes are cooking, trim excess skin from chicken thighs. Score the chicken 4 times (I like to make an XX pattern crossing in opposite directions) on the skin side, about 1/4-inch deep. Toss with remaining oil, salt, thyme, and pepper and set aside until potatoes are ready.
• Place seasoned thighs on top of potatoes in a single layer, skin-side up, and return to the oven for 40 minutes.
• Add drained peas, tucking them down around the chicken, and cook another 15-20 minutes, until warmed.
• Serve chicken with crusty bread for dunking into the pan juices, if desired.

BAKED CHICKEN WITH ONIONS AND PEAS

Steps:

• In large bowl soak chicken in water, and vinegar for about 10 minutes. Rinse well, trim excess skin and pat dry. This step is optional it's just how I clean chicken.
• Place chicken in a large zip lock bag or large bowl. To chicken add 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons salt (or to taste) and 1 teaspoons black pepper, garlic, oregano, lime juice, soy and Worcestershire sauce. Mix well, let marinade for at least an hour (overnight is best).
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees f.
• Place chicken skin side down in casserole dish large enough to leave some space between the chicken pieces. I bought one large aluminum tray. Pour remaining marinade over chicken. Bake for 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place peas and onions in a large bowl. Season with 1 tablespoon of salt (or to taste) and 1 teaspoons pepper, and 1/4 cup of olive oil. Toss to coat.
• After 20 minutes, remove chicken from oven and add the peas and onions. Turn chicken so that the skin side is up, and make sure the chicken is sitting on top of the peas so that the skin can brown. Raise oven temperature to 400 degrees and Cook for about 30 to 40 minutes or until chicken is fully cooked. I served this with my white rice recipe http://www.food.com/recipe/white-rice-503045.
