Food Recipes Crispy Chicken With Roasted Radishes 4.1 (7) 2 Reviews A new recipe for a chicken dinner is always welcome, and this one hits all the marks. It comes together in just over a half hour in one pot with a short and simple recipe list. Can you say “Winner winner chicken dinner?” You’ll start the chicken thighs out on the stove top to make sure the skin gets perfectly crispy, and then nestle them with onions, garlic, and radishes for a quick roast in the oven. Finally, a knob of butter, a glug of lemon juice, and a shower of chives finishes the dish off, and you’ll serve with ample slices of toasted baguette for sopping up the juices.
