If you seek out, celebrate, and obsess over good food but lack the skills and confidence necessary to make it at home, you’ve just won a ticket to a life filled with supreme deliciousness. Crispy McCrisperson chicken thighs with herby peas & fennelĪ thoroughly modern guide to becoming a smarter, faster, more creative cook from Molly Baz, featuring fun, flavorful recipes anyone can make.When I eyeballed the recipe I was concerned - brown sugar and 450F heat for one hour I felt, did not bode well. My oven is accurate and I used a very heavy pan (Staub) so I am not sure why this recipe worked for others as written and not for me. I would have had a dry chicken sitting on black charred vegetables. But this recipe wouldn’t have worked for me without the water. After all that the chicken was very juicy due to the steaming and vegetables were perfectly cooked at 60 mins as per the recipe and everything was delicious. At 49 mins the water needed replenishing - another 1/2 cup. I added about 1/2 cup of water so the vegetables wouldn’t burn. At 30 mins my onions were intensely searing in a dry pan as the juices hadn’t released from the chicken yet. After only 20 mins my 4lb chicken was starting to get too dark on the breast (convection roast, so no harsh heat from above) I had to put a patch of foil on that area.
