Roast Chicken and Mushrooms With Red Wine Sauce
- 2 skin-on, bone-in chicken breasts (12 to 14 ounces each)
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 pound oyster and/or maitake mushrooms, trimmed and torn into pieces
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 cup dry red wine
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Season the chicken with 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste.
- Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat; add 1/2 tablespoon vegetable oil, then add the chicken, skin-side down, and cook until the skin is golden brown, about 6 minutes.
- Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet, skin-side up; reserve the skillet.
- Toss the mushrooms with the remaining 1/2 tablespoon vegetable oil and season with salt and pepper; scatter around the chicken on the baking sheet.
- Bake until the mushrooms are tender and a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the chicken registers 160 degrees F, about 25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, melt the butter in the reserved skillet over medium heat.
- Add the flour and cook, stirring, 1 minute.
- Add the chicken broth and bring to a simmer, whisking.
- Add the wine, sugar and 1/4 teaspoon salt and simmer until the sauce is reduced by half, about 10 minutes.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Spoon some of the red wine sauce onto each plate; top with the chicken and mushrooms.
