Fennel & Fig Roasted Chicken

Image
Shared from our friends at Frigidaire Fennel & Fig Roasted Chicken Servings: 4 |  Prep Time: 15 MINS |  Cook Time: 20 MINS INSTRUCTIONS: Roasted Chicken Preheat the oven to 400°. Heat a medium-sized dutch oven (or large sauté pan) on medium heat. Add 2 Tbsp cooking oil. Sprinkle each piece of chicken with salt and pepper on both sides and sear each piece in the dutch oven, starting with the skin side down. Do 2-3 pieces at a time, making sure they aren’t touching to prevent moisture capture, which will cause the chicken to be soggy. Separate the leafy fronds from the fennel bulb and save in a bowl. Trim and dice the bulb. Discard or save the stalks for another use. Once the chicken is seared, add another Tbsp of cooking oil to the pan and sauté the garlic, diced fennel bulb and figs on low hear for 2-3 minutes. Add the chicken to the pan, avoiding overlap as much as possible, and sprinkle in the fresh thyme, rosemary and fennel fronds. Put...
