Number Of Ingredients 23

Green tahini sauce:
2 garlic cloves, smashed
1 cup (lightly packed) flat-leaf parsley leaves with tender stems
1/2 cup tahini
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
Kosher salt
Chicken and assembly:
1 3 1/2-4-pound chicken, cut into quarters, or 2 large skin-on, bone-in chicken breasts and 2 skin-on, bone-in chicken legs
2 medium red onions, thinly sliced
2 garlic cloves, smashed
1 lemon, thinly sliced, seeds removed
1 tablespoon sumac
1 1/2 teaspoons ground allspice
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth or water
1/4 cup olive oil, plus more for drizzling
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons za'atar
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup pine nuts
6 pieces lavash or other flatbread
Ingredient info:
Za'atar and sumac are available at Middle Eastern markets and specialty foods stores, and online.

Steps:

  • Green tahini sauce Pulse garlic, parsley, tahini, lemon juice, and 1/2 cup water in a food processor, adding more water if needed, until smooth (sauce should be the consistency of a thin mayonnaise); season with salt.
  • Do ahead: Sauce can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.
  • Chicken and assembly Preheat oven to 400°. Toss chicken, onions, garlic, lemon, sumac, allspice, cinnamon, broth, and 1/4 cup oil in a large resealable plastic bag; season with salt and pepper. Chill at least 2 hours.
  • Place chicken, onions, garlic, and lemon on a rimmed baking sheet, spooning any remaining marinade over and around chicken. Sprinkle with za'atar and roast until chicken is browned and cooked through, 45-55 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, melt butter in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Add pine nuts and cook, stirring often, until butter foams, then browns, and nuts are golden brown (be careful not to burn), about 4 minutes; season with salt.
  • Slice chicken breasts, if desired. Serve chicken with roasted onion and lemon, topped with pine nuts, with green tahini sauce and lavash.
  • Do ahead: Chicken can be marinated 1 day ahead. Keep chilled.

ZA'ATAR CHICKEN THIGHS



Za'atar Chicken Thighs image

Chicken thighs that are ridiculously simple yet packed with flavor thanks to a generous amount of za'atar. I like to serve this chicken with a fresh green salad of romaine, red onion, and tomato with a tahini-lemon dressing.

Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 bone-in chicken thighs, with skin
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
3 tablespoons za'atar, divided, or more to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Place chicken in a bowl and coat with olive oil. Season liberally with sea salt and black pepper on all sides.
  • Heat a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken thighs, skin-side down, to the hot skillet. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon za'atar immediately over each chicken thigh. Cook chicken, without turning, until skin is crispy and browned, 7 to 10 minutes.
  • Turn chicken so skin side faces up and remove skillet from heat. Sprinkle remaining za'atar quickly and evenly over each chicken thigh. Spoon some of the rendered chicken fat from the pan over the top of the za'atar.
  • Place the skillet in the preheated oven and roast until juices run clear and chicken is no longer pink near the bone, about 15 minutes.
