Dutch Oven

Henri’s Filipino Chicken


Henri’s Filipino Chicken

1 whole Chicken, Fryer (cut into 8 pieces)
1 medium Onion (sliced)
2 cloves Garlic (crushed)
1 dash Good Vinegar (Red Wine or Cider)
6-8 whole Cloves
2-3 Bay leaves
Paprika
3-4 tbsp Vegetable Oil
1 15 oz can of Chicken Broth (homemade is better)
Salt & Pepper (to taste)

Preheat a 12” Dutch oven, add oil and sauté the onions and garlic just long enough to flavor the oil. Add chicken and cook till golden brown. At this point we are just browning the chicken. Add a dash of vinegar and continue to brown. Add chicken broth, cloves, bay leaves, salt and pepper. Cover and simmer over medium high heat stirring occasionally. Add a little water if necessary to maintain liquid level (just enough to cover 1/4 of chicken). Cook 20 to 30 minutes. Sprinkle paprika over chicken during last 10 minutes.

Hot & Zesty Chicken

My buddy makes this a lot, but he cannot remember where the recipe came from.

10 Chicken Legs or Thighs (bone in)
3/4 cup Brown Sugar
Sesame Seeds
1 tsp Garlic Powder
1 tsp Onion Powder
1 tsp Ground Ginger
1/2 tsp Cayenne Pepper (add more if you like it hotter)
1/8 tsp Ground Nutmeg
1/8 tsp Cloves
2 tbsp Soy Sauce
2 tbsp Cider Vinegar or Red Wine Vinegar
1 tbsp Sherry
3/4 cup water
2 tbsp Cornstarch

Bake chicken in 12” Dutch oven for 45-50 minutes turning once until done and browned.

While chicken is cooking mix together remaining ingredients except cornstarch. Bring to a boil. Mix enough water with cornstarch to make a slurry then pour into boiling mixture. Stir until thickened. Spoon the sauce over chicken during the last 10 minutes of cooking. Sprinkler the Sesame Seeds over chicken right before serving.

When ever I get in a rut and don’t know what to eat, I always go for something spicy like this dish to put me back on track.

What’s Cooking?
How do we know when its done?
We use the smell test.
When it smells done, its done.
When it smells burnt, its burnt
and
When you can't smell it,
its not done.
