Instructions
Creating Easy Irish Chicken With Cabbage And Potatoes is straightforward. Follow these steps for a delicious result:
1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare the Chicken: Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt and pepper.
3. Sear the Chicken: In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken thighs, skin-side down, and sear for 5-7 minutes until golden brown. Flip and cook for an additional 5 minutes. Remove the chicken and set aside.
4. Sauté the Onions: In the same skillet, add the sliced onions. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften.
5. Add Cabbage and Potatoes: Stir in the chopped cabbage and cubed potatoes. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for another 5 minutes, allowing the cabbage to wilt slightly.
6. Combine Ingredients: Nestle the seared chicken thighs on top of the cabbage and potatoes in the skillet.
7. Roast in the Oven: Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Roast for 30-35 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and the potatoes are fork-tender.
8. Check for Doneness: Ensure that the chicken skin is crispy and the vegetables are cooked through. If necessary, you can broil for an additional 2-3 minutes to crisp up the skin.
9. Rest and Serve: Remove the skillet from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute for better flavor.
