SHEET-PAN ROAST CHICKEN AND MUSTARD-GLAZED CABBAGE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 425 degrees. Prepare the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup olive oil with the mustard, garlic, vinegar and cumin seeds. Season generously with salt and pepper.
• Prepare the cabbage: Halve the cabbage lengthwise through the core, then cut each half into 1-inch-thick wedges. (Make sure to continue cutting lengthwise through the core to keep the pieces intact.) You should have about 16 pieces.
• Add the cabbage wedges to a large (13-by-18-inch) baking sheet. Brush all the wedges with half the vinaigrette, then carefully turn and brush the other side with remaining vinaigrette. Arrange in an even layer, then season generously with salt and pepper. On a separate baking sheet, brush the red onion rounds with olive oil on both sides; season generously with salt and pepper. Add the onion rounds to the cabbage wedges, interspersing the red onion and cabbage and tucking some onion rounds partly underneath. Sprinkle the capers evenly on top.
• Prepare the chicken: In a small bowl, toss the coriander and cumin with 1 tablespoon salt and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper. Place the chicken on the sheet pan where you oiled the onions and drizzle with olive oil all over, then rub the seasoning all over the chicken. Arrange the chicken pieces on top of the cabbage and onions, skin-side up.
• Transfer to the oven and roast until the chicken is cooked through and the cabbage is lightly browned in spots and tender, about 35 to 40 minutes. Top with parsley or dill and serve immediately, passing more mustard on the side.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees and position a rack in the center. In a small bowl, stir together garlic, salt, coriander and pepper. Rub all over chicken, then set aside to rest at room temperature while you prepare vegetables.
• Thinly slice the scallions. Peel carrots if you like, and cut into 1/2-inch pieces (about 1 cup).
• Heat a 12-inch ovenproof skillet over high. When hot, add 2 tablespoons butter. When the butter is melted, place chicken skin-side down in skillet. Cook, without moving, until skin has browned, about 4 minutes. Transfer chicken, skin-side up, to a plate.
• Reduce heat to medium-high and stir in remaining 2 tablespoons butter, along with scallions, oregano sprig and a pinch of salt. Cook until softened and lightly browned, 3 minutes, then stir in stock, wine and carrots. Bring liquid to a simmer. Cover pan and cook, 5 minutes.

• Transfer skillet to oven and cook, uncovered, until chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes. Remove pan from oven and transfer chicken to a plate.
• If pan juices are watery, bring to a simmer over high heat and cook until thickened. Pluck out the oregano sprig and discard. Stir spinach, dill and a pinch of salt into pan, tossing to coat with pan juices and wilt greens. Spoon spinach, carrots, and pan juices over the chicken, drizzle with lemon juice, and serve.
