Skillet Chicken With Peas Potatoes Recipes

EASY SPICED CHICKEN WITH POTATOES AND PEAS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a small bowl, stir together cumin, coriander, and cayenne, if using. In a medium pot, bring potatoes to a boil in salted water over high and cook until tender when pierced with a knife, 10 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer potatoes to a paper-towel-lined plate and set aside. Return water to a boil, then add peas and cook just until tender, 3 minutes. Drain peas and set aside.
• Meanwhile, in a large ovenproof skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Season chicken with salt and cook, skin side down, until golden-brown and crisp, about 5 minutes. Flip and transfer skillet to oven; roast until chicken is cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Remove chicken from skillet and pour off all but 1 tablespoon fat. Add potatoes and 1 1/2 teaspoons spice mix, reserving remaining for Moroccan Meatballs with Couscous and Roasted Carrots, and cook over medium-high, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are golden in spots, 7 minutes. Stir in peas, lemon juice, and chopped cilantro; season to taste with salt and pepper. To serve, place chicken on top of peas and potatoes and sprinkle with cilantro leaves.

5-INGREDIENT CHICKEN WITH PEAS AND CARROTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Heat a large high-sided skillet or braiser over medium-high heat. Coat the pan with 2 tablespoons of oil. Season the chicken skin generously with salt and pepper. Place the chicken skin-side down in the skillet. Season the underside with salt and pepper. Cook undisturbed until the chicken easily releases from the pan and is golden brown, about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, remove the carrot tops, leaving about 1 inch of green stem attached to the carrots. Set aside the carrot tops. Cut the carrots into 2- to 3-inch pieces and set aside.
• Flip the chicken and cook for 2 minutes. Turn off the heat, add the carrots and turn them in the oil to coat. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until the chicken registers 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer and the carrots are softened and caramelized in places, 30 to 40 minutes.
• Remove the chicken from the oven and add the frozen peas. Return the chicken to the oven, then turn off the oven. The residual heat from the oven and the hot skillet will thaw and heat the peas.
• Put the garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a 12- to 14-cup food processor and pulse to chop the garlic into very fine pieces, 3 to 4 pulses. Add the carrot tops and pulse until very finely chopped, 6 to 8 pulses. While pulsing, drizzle in the remaining 1/2 cup of oil until combined. Transfer to a small bowl.
• Serve the chicken, peas and carrots with the carrot top gremolata.
