One-Pan Garlic Butter Chicken

Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
CHICKEN SEASONING:

• 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite sized pieces
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt, (see note)
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper

SAUCE:

• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 teaspoon olive oil
• 2 teaspoons minced garlic
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasonings
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon sriracha
• 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
• 1 lb asparagus, trimmed
• 1 tablespoon Italian parsley, minced

Instructions

1. Place chicken in a medium bowl and toss with the spices (salt, onion powder, garlic powder, and pepper).
2. In a large skillet, melt over medium low heat half of the butter (1/4 cup) and 1 teaspoon of olive oil.
3. Cook the chicken in the butter until all sides are golden brown being careful not to burn the butter. Add 1 teaspoon of minced garlic and Italian seasoning and cook for about 30 seconds. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
4. In the same skillet increase heat to medium high, add the remaining 1 teaspoon minced garlic then add the chicken broth to deglaze the pan. Add the remaining 1/4 cup butter, lemon juice, and sriracha.
5. Add the asparagus and cook to desired tenderness. Add the chicken back to the pan and stir for another minute to reheat. Garnish the chicken and asparagus with parsley and lemon slices. Serve.

Notes
If you're substituting fine salt or table salt for the kosher salt in the recipe, use only 3/4 teaspoon or it will be too salty. Table salt is "saltier" than kosher salt or coarse sea salt. Table salt has smaller individual crystals, so more crystals of table salt than kosher or sea salt will fit into a measuring spoon.

Skillet-Roasted Chicken & Potatoes

Ingredients

• 4 large bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (2 1/2 to 3 pounds total)
• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper 
• 2 1/2 cups buttermilk, shaken 
• Good olive oil 
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard 
• 1 tablespoon dry white wine, such as Chablis 
• 1 1/2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves 
• 1/8 teaspoon sweet Hungarian paprika 
• 1 pound medium Yukon Gold potatoes, unpeeled, sliced 1/4 inch thick 
• 1 tablespoon minced garlic (3 cloves) 
• 2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley 
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives

Directions

1. At least 4 hours (but not more than 12 hours) before you plan to serve, sprinkle the chicken all over with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Place in a 1-gallon sealable plastic bag and pour in the buttermilk. Seal the bag and massage it lightly to be sure the chicken is coated with the buttermilk. Place in the refrigerator to marinate.
2. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Pour 2 tablespoons olive oil in an unheated 12-inch cast-iron skillet and tilt the pan so the oil covers the bottom. Lift the thighs out of the buttermilk, letting any excess buttermilk drip off, and place them in the skillet, skin side up, in one layer. Discard the marinade. In a small bowl, combine the mustard and wine and brush it on the top of the chicken. Sprinkle with the thyme, paprika, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Place the skillet in the oven and roast the chicken for 30 minutes.
3. Using tongs, transfer the chicken to a plate and put the potatoes, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper into the skillet. Toss to coat with the pan juices then spread the potatoes out. Return the chicken to the skillet, placing it on the potatoes. Roast 30 minutes longer, until the chicken registers 155 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer. Transfer just the chicken to a plate and cover loosely with aluminum foil to keep warm. Return the skillet to the oven, raise the temperature to 425 degrees F, and roast the potatoes for 15 minutes, until they’re tender and starting to brown. Return the chicken to the pan and sprinkle with the parsley, chives, and extra salt. Serve hot from the skillet.
