Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 13

8 chicken thighs, (bone in, and leave the skin on but trim excess fat)
Kosher Salt
3 medium yellow onions, (halved and thinly sliced)
1 vine ripe tomato, (sliced into rounds)
For the chicken rub
5 tablespoons tomato paste
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil, (more as needed)
1 lemon, juice of
4 garlic cloves (minced)
1 teaspoon dry oregano
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Season the chicken thighs with kosher salt on both sides and underneath the skins. Set aside briefly.
  • Make the rub. In a small bowl or measuring cup, combine the rub ingredients. Whisk until everything is well-incorporated.
  • Rub the chicken with the tomato rub on both sides, applying underneath the skins first.
  • Prepare a 9" X 13" baking dish. Brush the bottom of the dish with extra virgin olive oil. Arrange most of the sliced onions on the bottom. Arrange the chicken on top of the onions. Now add the rest of the onions and the sliced tomatoes between the chicken thighs. Pour in about 1/4 cup of water from the sides of the baking dish.
  • Bake in the middle of your heated rack for 40 minutes or so, then, for crispy colored skin, put it under the broiler for a couple of minutes (watch carefully).

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h15m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne
Zest of 1 lemon, the lemon quartered
One 3-pound chicken, giblets removed
6 cloves garlic, crushed
3 fresh bay leaves
2 medium onions, sliced into 3 rings each
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled

Steps:

  • Combine the salt, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, cayenne and lemon zest in a bowl. Wash the chicken and pat very dry. Rub the spice mixture all over the chicken. Set the chicken on a plate and refrigerate, uncovered, for at least 1 hour and up to 8 hours (to dry out the skin and promote crisp skin).
  • When you are ready to cook, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Stuff the chicken with the lemon quarters, garlic and bay leaves. Arrange the onion slices to make a bed for the chicken in a large cast-iron skillet. Set the chicken on the onions and tuck the wings tips under the chicken's body. Brush the chicken all over with the melted butter.
  • Roast the chicken, basting once halfway through with the pan juices, until the skin is crisp and golden and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thigh (do not touch bone) reads 165 degrees F, about 45 minutes. Let rest at least 10 minutes before carving.
