One-Pan Crispy Chicken Thighs With Potatoes and Chard
Original Recipe: Cooking Light
INGREDIENTS:
- 4 (8-oz.) bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
- Cooking spray
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 pound small red potatoes, halved
- 1 cup sliced leeks (white parts only)
- 4 garlic cloves, smashed
- 4 cups chopped Swiss chard
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
DIRECTIONS:
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 425ºF. Place chicken thighs, skin side down, in a large cast-iron skillet lightly coated with cooking spray; sprinkle salt over chicken. Arrange potatoes around the chicken. Cook over medium, stirring potatoes occasionally until chicken skin is browned and crisp, 14 to 16 minutes.
- Step 2: Flip chicken thighs; place skillet in oven. Bake at 425ºF until chicken is done, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer chicken and potatoes to a plate, keeping as much of the drippings in the skillet as possible.
- Step 3: Add leeks and garlic to the skillet. Cook over medium-high, stirring often, until fragrant, 3 to 5 minutes. Add Swiss chard, mustard, and vinegar; cook just until wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle with crushed red pepper. Serve with chicken and potatoes.
The recipe sounds yummy. I am definitely going to try it. I would suggest that you include the sodium content in your recipes. After checking the carb count in a recipe, sodium is the next one I look for.
Thanks for all the work you do
