This chicken dish is cooked entirely on the stove top and is inspired by Craig Claiborne's Smothered Chicken recipe.
The recipe uses a unique braising technique. A spatchcocked chicken is sandwiched between two skillets to ensure that as much skin as possible comes into contact with the cooking pan while it fries in brown butter and that moisture is circulated during the braise.
I found Claiborne’s version of this dish while browsing the New York Times ; I loved the simplicity of this Southern dish, but it was a little too 1950s for me. This is my attempt to resurrect the recipe into the modern age.
I brightened up the gravy with some lemon, sage, and garlic; I further increased the flavour with celery and onion. I used the weight of another cast iron pan, plus random cans of food, to securely flatten the chicken to ensure that as much skin as possible made contact with the surface of the pan during the initial slow sear, resulting in extra crispy goodness.
The chicken is then braised in a gravy for the remainder of the cooking time; the heavy pan on top of the chicken acts as a makeshift lid, trapping in much of the moisture, allowing the entire bird to cook thoroughly.
The gravy if finished with a splash of lemon juice, some lemon zest, and a generous seasoning of salt and pepper.
Serve with potatoes, rice, or your favourite side of vegetables. Optionally, you can garnish with parsley.
* Spatchcocking is the removal of the backbone of poultry in order to open it up and allow it to lay flat for more even cooking. This is a useful technique for frying and grilling poultry. To spatchcock a chicken, simply take a pair of kitchen shears and cut out the backbone. Then flip the chicken, skin-side up, and apply force to the chicken breasts in order to flatten the chicken further. Freeze the backbone for future stock making.

INGREDIENTS: (2 servings)
2 large chicken breasts
5-6 cloves garlic (minced)
2 cloves garlic (crushed)
1 medium onion
1/2 cup chicken stock or water
1 tsp lime juice
1/2 cup heavy cream (sub fresh cream)
Olive oil
Butter
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried parsley
Salt and pepper (as needed)
*1 chicken stock cube (if using water)
_______________________________________
FAQ:
• Why lime juice?
As wine is not used in this recipe, lime juice is added for acidity (sourness). Otherwise the sauce might seem too rich
• When to add salt to the sauce?
Add salt towards the end as stock/stock cubes have added salt. I did not find the need to add more salt
• What else can be added to the dish?
Mushrooms, broccoli, bacon, spinach and parmesan cheese can also be added for additional flavor
• What to pair with the dish?
Pasta, steamed veggies, mashed potatoes, rice, couscous or crusty bread.
_______________________________________
TIPS:
• Chicken stock can be substituted with white wine as well. Omit lime juice if using white wine
• The entire sauce needs to be cooked on low flame so as to prevent it from splitting
• Reduce the liquid before adding cream
• Add 1/4 cup parmesan cheese to add more flavor

Skillet Roasted Lemon Chicken
RECIPE COURTESY OF INA GARTEN
Level: Intermediate
Total: 55 min
Active: 45 min
Yield: 3 to 4 servings
Ingredients
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
1 teaspoon whole fennel seeds
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup good olive oil
1 lemon, halved and sliced 1/4-inch thick
1 yellow onion, halved and sliced 1/4-inch thick
2 large garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 (4-pound) chicken, backbone removed and butterflied
1/2 cup dry white wine, such as Pinot Grigio
1 fresh rosemary sprig
Juice of 1 lemon
Directions
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
Place the thyme, fennel seeds, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper in a mini food processor and process until ground. Pour the olive oil into a small glass measuring cup, stir in the herb mixture, and set aside.
Distribute the lemon slices in a 12-inch cast-iron skillet and distribute the onion and garlic on top.
Place the chicken, skin side down, on top of the onion and brush with about half the oil and herb mixture. Turn the chicken skin side up, pat it dry with paper towels (very important!), and brush it all over with the rest of the oil and herb mixture.
Roast the chicken for 30 minutes. Pour the wine into the pan (not on the chicken!) and roast for another 10 to 15 minutes, until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast registers 155 to 160 degrees.
Remove the chicken from the oven, sprinkle it with the lemon juice and the leaves of 1 rosemary sprig, cover the skillet tightly with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 10 to 15 minutes. Cut the chicken into quarters, and serve hot with the pan juices, cooked lemon, and onion.
