Welcome Friends welcome back to the kitchen welcome back to another episode of what was on sale at the grocery store uh a little while ago whole chickens were on sale and so I bought a bunch of them this one I’ve cut up already and so I’ve got two leg quarters here the white
Half of the chicken is in the freezer I’ll cook that sometime in the future but buying whole chickens um is a really inexpensive way to to get chicken it’s often so much cheaper and I don’t think of the bones as waste because I use them to make chicken stock
And we’re going to use some of that chicken stock later on in this recipe so starting out a little salt and pepper on the chicken and while I’m putting salt and pepper on the chicken I am also heating up the pan on the stove top both sides always both
Sides okay the pan is heating up so I’ve got some but butter I’m going to put that in and let it melt um I’m using butter today on any given day I could be using any one of a number of different types of oil um even Bacon Fat Bacon fat
With a chicken dish is actually really good and I’ve got the uh the pan on sort of a medium heat um there are a bunch of different theories around Browning chicken and I don’t uh I don’t think that any one of them is any better than
The other but some people think you get a riping hot pan you put the chicken in you get a sear right off the top and you get some nice Browning and you build some flavors in older French cookbooks and when I say older French cookbooks 1700s 1800s there is a method whereby the
Butter goes in the pan chicken goes in a pan on a cold pan then you put it on the heat and you never actually bring the heat up too high and you just just let it go for a very long time um and I’ve done that method it’s timec consuming um
You get a lot of negative comments in the comment section down below from people saying you don’t know what you’re doing um but you get an amazing Browning on the chicken uh you should give it a try sometime anyway I think I’ve got the pan to the point where I’m going to be
Happy I guess a lot of what I’m saying is there are multiple methods to get to the same spot and and a lot of people that are telling you you’re doing it wrong are just wrong okay here we go medium low fire a little bit of butter look at that
Browning okay so we’ll just uh Brown up the other side and even hold it so that we Brown it all the way around okay so it’s one of those days I just took the chicken out of the pan and I talked about how I had it on just a
Medium heat the stove top was at four my stove top goes to nine so just a little less than half and I’ve got some really good Browning and some great skin on this chicken just takes a little more time you just have to have some patience that built up some incredible flavor in
The bottom of the pan between the butter and the Browning from the chicken and I put in some shots because I really like shots now I haven’t raised the temperature at all I’m just going to let them cook away in that butter until they’re translucent um and I’m still at a low
Temperature on the on the cook top someday I’ll figure out how to be a YouTuber and will remember to always turn on the camera be so much easier if I had someone here to help me but I’m on my own I’m cooking shooting taking care of everything all at once next in some
Mushrooms and uh these were these were just the mushrooms that I had left over in the fridge from some something else I made um I really like to mix up mushrooms if I had gone out with the expressed thought of making this today I would have bought two or three different
Kinds of mushrooms cuz each one brings a different texture and a different flavor to the dish and I like that uh that contrast of flavors I am going to turn it up a little bit now because we want to drive off uh most of the moisture from those
Mushrooms okay now we’re going to build a little sauce okay so this is some chicken stock I made recently every time I buy a chicken and I cut it up and I cut out the back or the neck or whatever put it in the freezer and then I make stock
With it and often when I do this I will go down to the Blue Sky Market um it’s fairly close to us they always have chicken feet on on hand and so I bought some chicken feet to put in and I get this really nice gelatinous broth
Um and it’ll just melt in there okay so now we’re going to add into that some mustard this regular old Dijon little bit of keen’s hot mustard cuz you know nice contrast and flavor and a scoop of the family honey let’s get that in there I’ll bring that temperature up a little
Bit mix all of those flavors together little bit of time little bit of Rosemary give it another stir back in with the chicken TH or the chicken leg quarters there we go now the oven is set to 425 and I’m going to put this in until
The chicken is cooked through uh keep an eye on on it add a little more liquid if you need to add more liquid if the liquid Burns off before the chicken is cooked um get out your thermometer and check the chicken make sure that it’s
Cooked now I had the lid on but I only had the lid on in order to keep it warm for Julie to come home from work um if you’re cooking this don’t put the lid on don’t put the lid on in the oven hey Jules uh cuz it doesn’t need the lid and
You just you don’t need the LD unless you’re just trying to keep it warm that’s all there was yeah I’m a little bit late today so happens oh look at that I like mushrooms yeah okay so mushrooms and shots oo Classics chicken put those uh carrots on that we
Just did okay let me get a knife or maybe two knives I don’t I’m going to dig into the mushrooms without even waiting CU mushrooms and shots so it’s a little bit of mustard mm m m those was really good the mustard okay so I put in I put in some
Hot mustard I’m not getting any heat from the hot mustard maybe just a little bit of bitterness yoube that’s that bitter note right at the end so be careful with your mustard and the chicken I mean it’s just let’s get some sauce that’s good same same flavors as the as
The mushrooms eat them together yeah this one this one worked out very nicely hi really good that’s of these Brandy glazed carrots um so you’re just going to yeah someone wants some attention mhm mhm okay that’s an easy one pan meal play with your flavors uh try different
Mustards maybe leave the mustard out if you don’t like mustard try something else there you go thanks for stopping by see you again soon that

!ALGORITHM!
Can't wait to try this!
What could you replace the mustard with? I love the recipe just don’t care for flavor of any mustard.
That does look good. Didn’t you do a video about how to cut up a whole chicken? That might make a reasonable short.
Looks delicious
What can you add into this if you don't like mushrooms?
I love cooking chicken in duck fat. It makes it taste amazing!
yummy easy chicken dinner 👍🏻
Leg quarters are $.69 (cents) a pound in 10 pound bags here every week. I vacuum bag 2 quarters and eat cheaply, often. I need to try shallots. Honey mustard, yummy!
Chicken!
Be a better YouTuber? Says the guy who has had some of the best consistent camera work and clear, interesting recipes on a cooking show for years. Glen!
Old stewing hen, NEED low and long. People that think you do it wrong? Never had a tough old bird! And since it is back in Time? Highly likely old chicken was the mest!
A guy with a plane and a purpose-built studio needs to buy the special offers at the store lol?! Suuuuure.
A little trick for oyster mushrooms: brush 'em with a little thyme-infused oil and grill then until they are starting to brown. Don't rush it. A nickname they have here in Germany is vealmeat mushrooms. That only shows when the start to brown.
I just bought a larger amount of chicken thighs at ALDI. I usually separate skin, meat and bones. To render out the fat from the skin, beeing left with delicious, crispy skin. And use the bones for broth.
Hey Glen, would you make a video with kitchenware recommendations? Pots, tools?
Just seeing you spoon the veg out at 6:42 had me struggling to not get out of my chair to lick my TV screen! 😂 Looks great, Glen!
For a guy who gets told he doesn't know what he's doing, damn he makes a good dish on here and yes, I've used some techniques he's shown and they di work😊
Glen you have 614000 viewers. You’re doing something right💕
that dish looks amazingly tasty
Made this today and it was amazing! Thank you Glen and Julie!
Chicken skin is for sure better slowly browned. I don't like the skin when the inner layers aren't rendered very well. Sometimes I'll reverse sear it if I'm in a hurry to get a similar effect.
Nothing better than walking into the house and dinner is ready. Bet it smells amazing!
Glen have you ever made cinnamon chicken?
No cat cameo?😢
Had this recipe tonight, was a wonderful new recipe and will be putting this my binder to use it again.
I would make this without the hot mustard.
You should make more 1-pan videos, like a series in itself or something (call it the 1-pan challenge or something, lol)! For some ridiculous reason, using more than 1 pan makes me want to not cook because of the dishes I'll have to clean afterwards.. Using only one pan requires creativity. Oh, and I'll definitely try that chicken.
Two chickens for the price of one.
Well, I know what I'm making for dinner tonight! Thanks Glen! My mealplan just "ran out" and I couldn't get to the store for a couple more days. Happen to have mushrooms in the fridge and chicken in the freezer. Perfect! 😀 Also, you are my favorite "foodtuber"! Love you guys! <3
How about telling us the back story of how your cat came to be named Chicken? Love your show(s).
I am with you all the way on the theories you used in making this dish! I would serve it with white rice.
Always both sides. Who wants one sided tasting chicken?
You guys are great! Thank you for putting in the ingredients list at the end. Need comfort food this winter.
Thanks for adding actual captions for the Deaf
Love your videos and I don't cook much. Thanks for telling us what number your stove is on. Others say med low. If you don't cook well so thus helps. THANKS
I love honey, and I love mustard, but not together. But I'm wondering if the honey just rounds everything out, rather than bringing a distinct flavour.
I made this tonight. It was quite good.
I know what I'm having for Sunday dinner!!! That looks fantastic, thank you for sharing!
Our Walmart here in the U.S. calls the chicken feet "chicken paws." I always wonder if they think that's easier to hear for people who are distressed by the idea of feet! 😁 But I agree – wonderful collagen effect.
