Hot Chicken With Vinegar Recipes

CHICKEN IN VINEGAR

Steps:

• Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet until foaming, then, a few pieces at a time, brown the chicken well on all sides. You're not cooking the chicken here; just making the skin crisp and giving it color, so 5 minutes per side is about right. Remove the chicken to a plate.
• Add the garlic to the pan and cook about 10 minutes. Deglaze the pan with the vinegar and boil to reduce by half, 10 to 15 minutes. Return the chicken to the pan. Add the tomatoes and tomato paste. Using a piece of kitchen twine, tie together the thyme, parsley, and bay leaf. Add the herb bundle to the chicken and simmer, uncovered, until the meat falls from the bone, about 30 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a dish, cover, and keep warm.
• Pour the stock into the pan juices and boil until thickened, about 10 minutes. Strain into a saucepan, and if it's still not concentrated enough for you liking, boil it down a little more. Whisk in the remaining tablespoon of butter. Season, and pour over the chicken. Serve with chopped parsley, sprinkled over, and with a bowl of roasted or mashed potatoes on the side.

HOT CHICKEN WITH VINEGAR

Steps:

• Heat the corn oil in a Dutch oven or large saucepan. Meanwhile, sprinkle the chicken legs with the salt, cayenne and chili powder. When the oil is hot, place the chicken legs, skin side down, in the skillet and saute, partially covered (to add moistness to the chicken), for about 20 minutes, turning occasionally to brown well on both sides. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside in a warm place.
• To the drippings in the Dutch oven, add the chopped garlic and cook for about 10 seconds, then add the vinegar. Cook for about 2 minutes, until the vinegar is almost completely reduced, and add the tomato paste and water. Mix well and taste for seasonings, adding more salt, cayenne, or chili powder, if desired. Place a chicken leg on each dinner plate and spoon some sauce over it. Garnish with chopped scallions and serve.

CHICKEN WITH VINEGAR

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Set a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil; when it is hot, place chicken in the skillet, skin side down. Cook undisturbed for about 5 minutes, or until chicken is nicely browned. Turn and cook 3 minutes on the other side. Season with salt and pepper.
• Place skillet in the oven. Cook 15 to 20 minutes, or until almost done (juices will run clear, and there will be just a trace of pink near the bone). Remove chicken to an ovenproof platter. Place it in the oven; turn off the heat, and leave the door slightly ajar.
• Pour all but 2 tablespoons of the cooking juices out of the skillet (discard them). Place skillet over medium-high heat, and add shallots; sprinkle them with a little salt and pepper, and cook, stirring, until tender, about 2 minutes. Add vinegar, and raise the heat to high. Cook a minute or two, or until the powerful acrid smell has subsided somewhat. Add 1/2 cup water, and cook for another 2 minutes, stirring, until the mixture is slightly reduced and somewhat thickened. Stir in butter, if desired.
• Return the chicken and any accumulated juices to the skillet, and turn the chicken in the sauce. Serve immediately.

VINEGAR CHICKEN WITH CRUSHED OLIVE DRESSING

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450 degrees. Place chicken on a rimmed baking sheet and toss with turmeric and 2 tablespoons olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Make sure chicken is skin-side up, then pour vinegar over and around chicken and place in the oven.
• Bake chicken, without flipping, until cooked through and deeply browned all over, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine olives, garlic, parsley, the remaining 4 tablespoons olive oil and 2 tablespoons water in a small bowl; season with salt and pepper.
• Once chicken is cooked, remove baking sheet from the oven and transfer chicken to a large serving platter, leaving behind any of the juices and bits stuck to the pan.
• Make sure the baking sheet is on a sturdy surface (the stovetop, a counter), then pour the olive mixture onto the sheet. Using a spatula or wooden spoon, gently scrape up all the bits the chicken left behind, letting the olive mixture mingle with the rendered fat and get increasingly saucy. Pour olive mixture over the chicken, then serve.

CHICKEN WITH VINEGAR AND SOY SAUCE

Steps:

• Cut the chicken legs in half to separate the thighs from the drumsticks. Sprinkle the chicken pieces with the salt and pepper.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet and when it is hot, add the chicken pieces in one layer to the skillet. Saute the chicken over medium to high heat, turning it occasionally, for 20 minutes, until brown on all sides. Transfer the chicken to a plate and set it aside.
• Add the onion to the drippings in the skillet and saute it over medium heat for 1 minute. Stir in the garlic and add the vinegar and wine. Cover and cook for 2 minutes, then mix in the water, ketchup and soy sauce.
• Return the chicken to the skillet, bring the mixture to a boil, simmer 1 minute, and serve with the apple and potato puree.
