Chicken Thighs With Creamed Corn Recipes

CHICKEN THIGHS WITH CREAMED CORN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Browning the Chicken Thighs. Season chicken thighs with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a large cast iron pan (or oven proof skillet), over medium-high heat, until shimmering. Place the chicken thighs, skin side down, and brown for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown. Remove from heat and reserve.
• Prepare the milk. While the chicken thighs are browning, combine the milk, chicken bouillon and one can of corn (drained) in the jar of a blender. Blend until smooth. Reserve.
• Making the Creamed Corn. After you've removed the chicken thighs, lower the heat to medium and remove all but 1 tablespoon of the chicken fat. Add the butter and sauté the onion and garlic until fragrant and softened. Then, add the flour and stir, letting it cook slightly to get rid of that raw flour taste.
• Slowly pour the reserved milk corn mixture into the pan, stirring constantly, until thickened. Add the heavy cream, remaining corn, a pinch of salt and pepper, and parmesan cheese, mixing well. Taste for seasoning and adjust salt and pepper, if necessary. Remove from heat.
• Finishing in the oven. Return the chicken thighs to the pan, nesting them in the creamed corn. Transfer the pan to the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the creamed corn is hot and bubbly and the chicken is crispy and cooked through. You can pop the pan under the broiler for the chicken to get extra crispy, if you wish.
• Garnish with the chopped parsley and serve immediately!

ONE-PAN CHICKEN THIGHS WITH COCONUT CREAMED CORN

Steps:

• Pat the chicken dry, and season with salt and pepper. Drizzle the olive oil in a large (12-inch) skillet. Add the thighs, skin-side down, and set over medium heat. (It's OK if they're slightly squeezed in the skillet; as the fat renders, they'll shrink.) Cook, undisturbed, until the skin is deep golden brown, and the thighs release easily from the pan, about 15 minutes. (If your stove is getting splattered with oil, cover the skillet.) Transfer the chicken, skin-side up, to a plate. Reserve the skillet and fat.
• Increase the heat to high, add the corn, scallion whites, ginger, garlic and serrano. Season with salt and pepper and cook until the corn starts to brown in spots, 2 to 3 minutes, adding an extra minute or two if using frozen corn.
• Reduce heat to medium, add the coconut milk, scrape up any browned bits from the pan and season with salt and pepper. Put the chicken on top of the corn mixture, skin-side up. Simmer until the coconut milk is slightly thickened and the chicken is cooked through, 7 to 10 minutes. (If your corn has reduced too much before your chicken is done cooking, just add a few tablespoons of water or chicken stock.)
• Serve with a squeeze of lime and reserved scallion greens on top.

STIR-FRIED CHICKEN WITH CREAMED CORN

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix the chicken with the soy sauce, the sesame oil and the wine. Put the peanut oil into a deep skillet or wok, preferably nonstick, and turn heat to high. Drain chicken. When oil is hot, add chicken to skillet, and cook, undisturbed, until bottom browns, about 2 minutes. Stir once or twice, and cook 2 minutes longer. Turn the heat down to medium-low.
• Add the garlic, the ginger and the chili to the skillet, and stir; 15 seconds later, add the creamed corn and the corn kernels. Cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through, 3 or 4 minutes. Garnish, and serve over white rice.

CREAMY LEMON CHICKEN THIGHS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place chicken in a large bowl and coat generously with salt, pepper, and paprika.
• Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken to the skillet in batches, skin-side down. Cook until skin is golden and crispy, about 2 minutes per batch. Remove chicken and place into a large baking dish.
• Add thyme and garlic to the skillet. Cook over medium heat until garlic is fragrant and lightly browned, about 1 minute. Whisk in flour slowly into a thick paste. Add wine, stock, lemon juice, and cream and bring to a simmer, about 5 minutes. Add Parmesan cheese and stir until melted. Pour sauce over chicken in the baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven, uncovered, until chicken is not longer pink inside and juices run clear, about 30 minutes.

BAKED CHICKEN THIGHS COATED WITH CORN FLAKE CRUMBS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a half-sheet pan with aluminum foil. Place a baking rack on top.
• Place corn flake crumbs in a bowl.
• Mix teriyaki sauce, sriracha sauce, paprika, rice vinegar, and sugar together in a large bowl until sauce has a thick consistency.
• Place chicken thighs in the bowl with the sauce. Tumble thighs together until completely coated. Smear sauce onto any bare spots and under any loose flaps of skin.
• Place 1 thigh into the bowl with the corn flakes. Spoon crumbs on top using a tablespoon. Press crumbs onto the thigh using the back of the spoon, pressing the thigh down into the crumbs to coat the underside. Turn over and repeat pressing. Place onto the baking rack, skin-side up. Repeat with remaining thighs and crumbs, placing largest thighs in the corners of the rack to receive the most heat.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 40 minutes depending on the size of the thighs. Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) and continue baking, 15 to 20 minutes. Turn thighs over to help undersides crisp up. Bake until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 15 to 20 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Let the thighs rest on the baking rack for at least 15 minutes before serving.

VINEGAR-GLAZED CHICKEN WITH CREAMED CORN

Steps:

• Season chicken with salt and pepper. Heat a large skillet over medium-high; melt 2 tablespoons butter. Add chicken; cook, flipping once, until golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in vinegar, scraping up browned bits from bottom of pan; cook 30 seconds. Add broth; simmer, turning chicken frequently, until cooked through and coated with sauce, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
• Wipe skillet clean; heat over medium. Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Stir in chopped scallions; cook just until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add corn; cook just to heat through, about 1 minute. Add cream cheese and milk. Cook, stirring, until cheese melts and simmers, 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Top chicken and corn with sliced scallions; serve, with arugula salad.
