   Some dirty rat got off with my LeCrueset "French" oven and my 3 litre

   or going to be less $$$$ to replace them.

         Title: Soy & Cider Braised Chicken   
    Categories: Poultry, Vegetables, Chilies, Potatoes, Citrus   
         Yield: 5 servings   
      
         2 lb Skin-on, bone-in chicken   
              - thighs   
              Savory seasoned salt   
         5    Shallots; sliced   
              +=OR=+   
         1 md Onion; sliced   
         1    Jalapeno; sliced   
         5 cl Garlic; peeled, crushed   
        12 oz Can dry cider   
       1/2 c  Soy Sauce   
         2 c  Chicken broth   
         1 lb White sweet potatoes *   
         1    Lemon; zested, sliced   
      
     * White sweet potatoes have a light, golden-colored   
     skin and white flesh.   
      
     This one-pot dinner from our chef friends at Momofuku   
     Culinary Lab makes use of their savory superpowers of   
     Momofuku Soy Sauce and Savory Seasoned Salt. They   
     balance the tart flavor of the cider, creating an easy   
     but flavorful fall-off-the-bone chicken dinner. Note   
     that you don’t need to heat or oil the pan in advance -   
     the chicken will release fat as the pan heats and by the   
     time it’s appropriately brown, it should easily release   
     from the pan.   
      
     Set oven @ 350ºF/175ºC.   
      
     Season chicken all over with a generous portion of   
     Seasoned Salt (about 1 teaspoon) and let sit at room   
     temperature for 30 minutes.   
      
     Heat a large braiser or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add   
     chicken skin side-down while the pan is still cold. Cook   
     for about 12-15 minutes, until the chicken skin easily   
     releases from the pan and the skin is deeply browned.   
     Turn chicken and brown the other side for another 4-5   
     minutes, then remove from the pan and set aside on a   
     plate.   
      
     Pour out all but 1 tablespoon of the chicken fat. Add   
     sliced shallots, jalapeno, and crushed garlic cloves to   
     the pan. Stir over medium-low heat until shallots are   
     softened, about 5 minutes. Increase heat to medium, then   
     deglaze the pan with the cider, scraping up all the   
     browned bits. Add soy sauce, chicken broth, and white   
     sweet potatoes. Nestle chicken back within the sweet   
     potatoes and bring to a simmer. Sprinkle half of the   
     lemon zest over the chicken.   
      
     Cover and place in preheated oven to braise for 40   
     minutes. Remove from the oven, uncover, and simmer on   
     the stove for about 15 minutes longer, stirring to   
     ensure the bottom isn’t sticking, until the sauce has   
     reduced and thickened. Serve with lemon slices.
