Ingredients:
\n 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
\n 1 tablespoonextra-virgin olive oil
\n Kosher salt
\n 4 small yellow onions, halved and peeled
\n 2 to 3 small apples (such as Stayman Winesap, Fuji, or Mutsu), cored and halved
\n 8 sprigsfresh thyme
\n Freshly ground black pepper
\n 1 cupchicken or vegetable stock
\n 1 cupdry hard cider
\n Bread, noodles, or potatoes, for serving<\/p>\n
Directions: <\/p>\n
Heat the oven to 400\u00b0F. <\/p>\n
Pat dry the chicken thighs. Heat a large, ovenproof skillet (at least 10-12 inches in diameter) until hot over medium-high heat, then add the oil and swirl to coat. Add the thighs, skin side down, and sprinkle with kosher salt. Sear for 3 minutes, then add the onion halves, cut side down, and sear for another 5 minutes. You can rotate the pan as needed for even browning, but don\u2019t disturb the chicken or onions.<\/p>\n
Flip the onions. Check the chicken\u2014its skin should be golden. If it\u2019s golden, flip the chicken, too. (If not, wait another minute or so.) Cook for 3 minutes, then add the apples, cut side down, scooting the onions and chicken as needed. Throw in the thyme sprigs and season everything with salt and pepper. Cook the apples for 4 to 7 minutes, until they\u2019re evenly browned, then flip them over. <\/p>\n
Carefully pour in the cider\u2014it will boil vigorously\u2014and let it simmer for 4 to 8 minutes, until reduced by about half. Add the stock and bring to a boil.<\/p>\n
Transfer the pan to the oven. Roast for 10 to 15 minutes, until the chicken thighs reach 165\u00b0F on an instant-read thermometer, or their juices run clear when the meat is pierced with a knife.<\/p>\n
Serve with something starchy\u2014like crusty bread, noodles, or potatoes\u2014to soak up all the sauce. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
