Serves:
Ingredients
- 4 chicken legs
- 4 cups duck fat or olive oil
- 4 large potatoes, peeled and diced
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 4 eggs
- Fresh parsley, for garnish
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C).
-
Place the chicken legs in a baking dish and cover with duck fat or olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
-
Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 2 hours, until the chicken is tender and cooked through.
-
While the chicken is cooking, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 10-12 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
-
In the same skillet, add the diced onion and minced garlic. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
-
Add the cooked potatoes back to the skillet and sprinkle with dried thyme. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for another 5 minutes, until heated through.
-
In a separate pot, bring water to a gentle simmer. Crack each egg into a small bowl and gently slide into the simmering water. Poach for about 3 minutes, until the whites are set but the yolk is still runny. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel.
-
To serve, divide the potato hash onto four plates. Top each plate with a confit chicken leg and a poached egg. Garnish with fresh parsley.
