Garlicky Chicken Thighs with Scallion and Lime
loading...
X
"These tangy chicken thighs are a weeknight alternative to a long, weekend braise. They may not fall entirely off the bone, but the quick simmer in a rich, citrusy sauce yields an impossibly tender thigh that you wouldn’t get with a simple sear. Serve with rice, whole grains or with hunks of crusty bread for mopping up the leftover sauce."

Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
- 1 bunch scallions
- 1 head garlic, halved crosswise, plus 2 cloves garlic, finely grated
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice, plus 1 lime
- 1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
- SK note: maybe add some chunked carrots, too
Steps
- Season chicken with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Heat oil in a large dutch oven or large, high-sided skillet over medium heat.
- Add chicken, skin-side down and cook, undisturbed, until chicken is crisped and the fat has begun to render, 8 to 10 minutes. Using tongs, carefully flip chicken skin-side up. Cook until golden brown, 4 to 6 minutes.
- Meanwhile, thinly slice two scallions; set aside.
- Add halved garlic and remaining whole scallions (SK: also carrots, if I add them) to the pot and season with salt and pepper, tossing to coat in the chicken fat. Cook until lightly blistered and browned, about 3 minutes. Add grated garlic and stir a minute or two, but do not brown.
- Add lime juice, soy sauce and 1 cup of water. Bring to a simmer and partly cover. Cook until chicken is completely tender and nearly falling apart on the underside and liquid is reduced by three-quarters, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Scatter sliced scallion over chicken and using a Microplane or zester, zest lime over. Cut lime into quarters and serve alongside.
