Chicken and Bacon Choucroute with Potato Salad

Ingredients for Chicken and Bacon Choucroute with Potato Salad

• 1.4kg baby Yukon Gold potatoes

• ملح كوشير

• 2 small shallots, finely chopped

• 80 مل زيت زيتون بكر ممتاز

• 80ml white wine vinegar

• 45ml Dijon mustard

• 2 teaspoons hot sauce

• 1 ملعقة صغيرة عسل

• 1/4 cup tarragon leaves

• 1 ملعقة كبيرة من زيت الزيتون البكر الممتاز

• 1.4kg skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs (6–8)

• ملح كوشير

• 230g slab bacon, sliced 1/2" thick

• 6 garlic cloves, lightly crushed

• 2 large sprigs thyme

• 1 teaspoon juniper berries

• 900g sauerkraut (about 950ml ), rinsed, squeezed dry

• 240 مل نبيذ أبيض جاف

• 900g sausages, such as kielbasa and/or bratwurst

Place potatoes in a small pot and pour in water to cover by 2"; season generously with salt. Bring to a boil, then immediately reduce heat so water is at an active simmer. Cook potatoes until fork-tender, 22–25 minutes. Drain; let sit 5 minutes to dry.

Meanwhile, whisk shallots, oil, vinegar, mustard, hot sauce, and honey in a large bowl; season dressing with salt.

Add hot potatoes to dressing and let sit, tossing occasionally, until they are just warm and have soaked up some of the dressing, at least 15 minutes and up to 1 hour. Just before serving, add tarragon to potato salad and toss to evenly distribute.

Place a rack in upper third of oven; preheat to 204°C. Drizzle oil in a large skillet. Season chicken generously with salt and arrange skin side down in a single layer in skillet. Set over medium heat and cook chicken, undisturbed, until skin is golden brown around the edges, 12–15 minutes. Using a stiff spatula, lift up chicken, then put it back down, still skin side down. Once chicken pieces have all released from skillet and slide around easily, continue to cook, shifting pieces as needed if browning unevenly, until skin is deeply browned, 6–8 minutes longer. Transfer chicken to a plate and turn skin side up. Pour off all but 60ml fat from skillet.

Add bacon to same skillet and cook, turning once, until lightly browned, about 5 minutes; transfer to a plate. Cook garlic in skillet, tossing occasionally, until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Add thyme sprigs and juniper berries and cook, tossing, just until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add sauerkraut and wine, increase heat to medium-high, and cook, stirring occasionally, until wine is almost completely evaporated, 6–8 minutes. Remove skillet from heat.

Place sausages in a 3-qt. baking dish and pile sauerkraut over (sausages should be submerged). Arrange chicken thighs and bacon on top of sauerkraut. Pour in 180ml water and bake choucroute until chicken is cooked through and liquid is bubbling throughout, 25–30 minutes. Let cool slightly. Serve with potato salad.

Potato salad (without tarragon) can be made 3 days ahead. Cover and chill. Bring to room temperature before serving.
