How to Make Maple Syrup Chicken Poulet A L Rable

  1. Season 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts and 4 chicken legs generously with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs (e.g., 1 tsp dried thyme, ½ tsp paprika).
  2. Dredge the chicken pieces in ½ cup all-purpose flour, ensuring they are evenly coated.
  3. Melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a large oven-safe skillet or frying pan over medium-low heat.
  4. Cook the chicken for 5-7 minutes per side, until lightly browned and cooked through. Use a meat thermometer to ensure internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together ½ cup pure maple syrup and ¼ cup water.
  6. Pour the maple syrup mixture over the chicken. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low. Cover the skillet and simmer for 15-20 minutes, basting the chicken with the syrup mixture every 5 minutes, adding more water (1-2 tablespoons at a time) if needed to prevent sticking.
  7. Serve this decadent dish immediately with your choice of sides. Suggested sides include roasted potatoes and carrots (Toss 1 lb potatoes and 1 lb carrots with 2 tbsp olive oil, salt and pepper before roasting alongside the chicken in the oven for the last 20 minutes), rice, or asparagus.
