CHICKEN WITH CARAMELIZED BABY ONIONS AND HONEY



Chicken with Caramelized Baby Onions and Honey image

Categories     Sauce     Chicken     Onion     Side     Honey

Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound shallots or baby onions
1 onion, chopped
4 tablespoons sunflower oil
Good pinch of saffron threads
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 chicken, cut up in 6 or 8 pieces
Salt and black pepper
1 to 1 1/2 tablespoons clear honey
To garnish: 1/2 cup blanched almonds or a handful of sesame seeds (optional)

Steps:

  • To peel the shallots or baby onions, blanch them in boiling water for 5 minutes, drain, and when cool enough to handle, peel off the skins and trim the root ends.
  • Sauté the chopped onion until softened in the oil over a medium heat in a pan or casserole large enough to hold the chicken pieces in one layer. Stir in the saffron, ginger, and cinnamon, then put in the chicken pieces. Season with salt and pepper, and turn to brown them lightly all over.
  • Add about 1 cup water and cook, covered, over a low heat, turning the pieces over, for 15 minutes, or until the chicken breasts are done. Lift out the breasts and put them to one side. Add the shallots or baby onions and continue to cook, covered, for about 25 minutes, or until the remaining chicken pieces are very tender. During the cooking, turn the chicken pieces and stir the onions occasionally; add a little water, if necessary.
  • Lift out the chicken pieces and set to one side. Stir the honey into the pan. Check the seasoning. You need quite a bit of pepper to mitigate the sweetness. Cook, uncovered, until all the water has evaporated, and the onions are brown, caramelized, and so soft that you could crush them, as they say in Morocco, "with your tongue."
  • Return the chicken pieces to the pan, spoon the onions on top of them, and heat through. A few minutes should be enough. Serve, if you wish, sprinkled either with blanched almonds fried in a drop of oil until they are lightly golden, or with toasted sesame seeds.

Chicken cooked in a tagine is always meltingly tender. Adding sweet, caramelized pears at the end makes this Moroccan dish irresistible.

Provided by Natalie Titanov

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     African     North African     Moroccan

Time 1h28m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 15

7 tablespoons olive oil, divided
2 onions, peeled and sliced
1 whole chicken, cut into pieces
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon salt
3 cinnamon sticks
2 bay leaves, crushed
1 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped
2 tablespoons fresh ginger root, peeled and minced
½ cup water
2 tablespoons butter
2 pears, cored and sliced
2 tablespoons honey

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Heat 2 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook onions until softened and browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer onions into a tagine. Layer chicken pieces on top of onions.
  • Combine turmeric, cumin, ground coriander, and salt in a small bowl; mix well with remaining 5 tablespoons olive oil. Spread spice mixture onto the chicken pieces. Add cinnamon pieces, bay leaves, ginger, and cilantro. Pour in 1/2 cup of water and cover tagine with a lid.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 50 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Melt butter in a skillet over low heat while chicken is cooking. Add sliced pears and honey and cook, while stirring, until honey has caramelized.
  • Remove tagine from the oven and stir in caramelized pears. Return to the oven and cook for an additional 10 minutes.

CHICKEN WITH CARAMELISED BABY ONIONS AND PEARS



Chicken With Caramelised Baby Onions and Pears image

A classic Moroccan dish which strikes a balance between sweet and savoury flavourings - and sounds absolutely delicious. I'm posting it here for safekeeping: so I don't forget it! To achieve the balance that best suits your tastes, start with one tablespoon of honey and add more until it's just how you like it. Adapted from Claudia Roden's recipe in the August/September 2005 issue of 'Australian Vogue Entertaining + Travel'. Claudia Roden's recipe uses a whole chicken. When I make this recipe, I intend using skinless, boneless breasts, halved. Served over rice, noodles, or couscous, I think this recipe would easily serve 6 rather than the 4 specified. After I've made it, I'll post the cooking times for making this recipe with breasts, and any other adjustments in relation to the number of serves. If you make this recipe - with breasts or thighs - before I do, please include in your review your cooking times and how many serves it made.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 small firm beurre bosc pears or 2 large firm beurre bosc pears, unpeeled, quartered and cored
40 g unsalted butter
4 tablespoons sunflower oil
500 g shallots or 500 g baby onions
1 onion, peeled and chopped
1 large chicken, jointed
sea salt, to taste
fresh ground black pepper, to taste
good pinch saffron thread
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 -2 tablespoon clear honey
100 g blanched almonds (optional)

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a non-stick pan over a medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of sunflower oil and sauté the pear quarters until they are lightly coloured, then set aside.
  • Blanch the eschalots or baby onions in boiling water for 5 minutes, and drain. When they are cool enough to handle, peel the eschalots and trim the root ends.
  • Sauté the eschallots in a little sunflower oil, in a non-stick pan (you can use the same pan as you used to sauté the pears) over a medium heat, shaking the pan and turning the eschalots until they are browned and caramelized on all sides.
  • Remove the eschalots from the pan and drain them on paper kitchen towelling.
  • Add 3-4 tablespoons of oil to a casserole pot large enough to include the chicken pieces, pears and eschalots, and sauté the chopped onion over a medium heat until it begins to soften; then add the chicken pieces and lightly brown them on all sides. Season to taste.
  • Add 1 cup of water, and stir in the saffron threads, ginger and cinnamon, and cook, covered, over a low heat, turning the pieces over several times, for 10-15 minutes or until the breasts are cooked.
  • Remove the breasts, set aside and keep warm.
  • Add the caramelised eschalots to the pot.
  • If the pear quarters are still firm (see also step 14), add them to the pot now and continue to cook, covered, over a low heat, for 25 minutes or until the remaining chicken pieces are very tender, turning occasionally, and adding a little more water if it is needed.
  • Lift the chicken pieces out, set aside with the breasts, and keep warm.
  • Stir the honey into the pot and check the seasoning. You will need quite a bit of pepper to balance the sweetness.
  • Cook uncovered to reduce the sauce if necessary, until the sauce has the consistency of thick jam.
  • Return all the chicken pieces to the pot and heat through.
  • If the pears were soft enough after they were sautéed, add them at this point. A few minutes heating should be enough.
  • If you are serving this dish with blanched almonds, lightly toast the almonds under the grill or dry sauté them in a non-stick pan (or you can add a drop of oil).
  • Serve over rice, noodles or couscous.
