Description

Once you try this simple and delicious chicken dish you’ll want it in your regular meal rotation. The sauce is amazing. Great with mashed potatoes or over wide egg noodles.

Ingredients

  • 3 pounds Chicken Legs And Thighs With Skin And Bone
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • ½ teaspoons Pepper
  • 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 1 whole Large Onion, Finely Chopped
  • 1-½ cup Chicken Broth Or Water
  • 2 whole Large Cloves Garlic, Minced
  • 2 teaspoons Ground Coriander
  • 2 Tablespoons Dijon Mustard
  • ¼ cups Sour Cream
  • 1 Tablespoon Dried Tarragon

Preparation

1) Preheat the oven to 325F.
2) Season the chicken legs and thighs with kosher salt and pepper. Heat a heavy oven-safe skillet that has a tight fitting lid over medium-high heat and add the oil. Brown each seasoned piece of chicken on all sides (it doesn’t have to be all the way done – just browned). Remove from the pan onto a plate.
3) Add the onion to the pan. If you have a lot of goodies sticking to the bottom of the pan, add a couple of tablespoons of the broth to deglaze it. Once the onions are soft, add the garlic and cook another minute. Add the coriander and remaining broth to the pan and add the browned chicken pieces. Cover the skillet with the lid and place the pan into the oven for 45 minutes.
4) Remove the pan from the oven. Remove the lid (carefully!) and remove the cooked chicken onto a serving platter, cover with foil to keep warm.
5) Put the pot on the stove over medium heat. Whisk the dijon mustard, sour cream, and tarragon in a small bowl until all ingredients are incorporated. Whisk it into the pan juices. Cook about a minute. Pour the sauce over the cooked chicken. Serve immediately. Makes 6 servings.

I have made this three times. It is a great recipe as is. I ran out of coriander and substituted turmeric and it was amazing. I used boneless skinless chicken thighs and they were fork tender. Served with mashed potatoes, and sugar snap peas. My husband and declared this as one of his favorites. Make it, you won’t be sorry you did.
