This is one of the easiest things I make that my family loves. It's
flavorful and homey. A true comfort dish. Try it with the "Not For the
Faint of Heart Mashed Potatoes" you can find in the recipe line-up here
or with the roasted veggies I've included with this recipe. Or try it
with both!
Oven Roasted ~
Herb Crusted Chicken
6 chicken thighs – with skin
3 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 teaspoon dried sage
1 teaspoon dried tarragon
1 stick butter – softened
Preheat oven to 400 degrees
In
a small bowl, combine butter, salt and dried herbs. (This is called a
compound butter.) Mix well. Place a small teaspoonful of butter mixture
under the skin of each chicken thigh. Spread remaining butter mixture of
the top of the thighs. Place chicken thighs in a 9 x 13 inch pan and
bake for 45 minutes or until done and skin is crusty.
Roasted Veggies
2 zuchinni
2 yellow squash
1 red pepper
1 yellow pepper
1 green pepper
1 sweet or red onion
1 teaspoon each:
tarragon
oregano
sage
rosemary
Salt and pepper to taste
Chop
all veggies into big chunks and put into a large pan. Sprinkle with
herbs and salt and pepper then drizzle the whole thing with a few good
glugs of olive oil. Roast at 400...along with the chicken..for about 45
minutes until veggies are tender. (When you put the raw veggies in the
pan it will look like a lot, but remember...they will cook down.)
Welcome!
Welcome to Simple Fare, Fairly Simple. This is a place for me to post recipes of all kinds...along with other miscellaneous fodder from my so-called life here in the south. Who knows what you will find here. Could be anything from my husband...known as IT Guy...to my kids and beautiful grandbabies that are growing up way too fast right before my eyes. But...mostly this will be a place for food. I hope you'll see something you like and if you decide to try something from the list...leave me a comment and let me know!
