Recipe by Woman's Day Kitchen
A dish inspired by classic French flavors, these irresistibly crisp chicken thighs are seasoned with tart lemon, tangy mustard, and pungent garlic.
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp. olive oil
- 8 small chicken thighs
- kosher salt
- Pepper
- 8 clove garlic
- 2 sprig fresh rosemary
- 1/4 c. fresh lemon juice
- 1 tbsp. Dijon mustard
- 1/2 bunch escarole
- 1 can small white beans
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken with 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper and cook, skin-side down, until the skin is golden brown and crisp, 7 to 8 minutes.
- Turn the chicken, add the garlic and rosemary to the skillet, and cook until the garlic is golden brown and the chicken is cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes more. Transfer the chicken to plates.
- Add the lemon juice and 1/4 cup water to the skillet and cook, scraping up any brown bits, for 1 minute; stir in the mustard. Add the escarole and beans and cook, tossing, until the beans are heated through and the escarole begins to wilt around the edges, about 1 minute. Serve with the chicken.
