Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

12 skin-on chicken drumsticks
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 cups apple juice
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
2 teaspoons honey
Grated zest of 1 lemon
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 teaspoons sesame seeds (optional)
1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Set a wire rack on a rimmed baking sheet. Put the drumsticks on the rack and season both sides generously with salt and pepper. Bake 30 minutes; flip the drumsticks and continue baking until golden and crisp, about 30 more minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the sauce: Bring the apple juice, vinegar, soy sauce, honey, lemon zest, red pepper flakes and a pinch of salt to a high simmer in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook until the sauce is syrupy and coats the back of a spoon, 20 to 25 minutes. Set aside until the chicken is done.
  • Stir the sesame seeds into the sauce, if using, and warm over medium heat, if necessary. Transfer the chicken to a large bowl. Add the sauce and butter and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer the chicken to a platter and drizzle with any remaining sauce from the bowl.

HONEY-GLAZED CHICKEN AND SHALLOTS



Honey-Glazed Chicken and Shallots image

The combination of a sweet glaze, tangy shallots and pan-roasted chicken makes this a quick but decadent one-pan meal. Caramelizing shallots first, then tossing them with sherry vinegar gives them a pickled but syrupy bite. A little heat from a spicy chile and some freshness from parsley leaves balance this flavorful dish. Serve right off the stove, over cooked grains or alongside a crisp salad.

Categories     dinner, quick, weeknight, poultry, main course

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs or drumsticks (6 to 8 pieces)
Salt
2 tablespoons neutral oil, such as grapeseed or canola
1 pound shallots (about 8), peeled and halved, quartered if large
3 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 garlic clove, minced
1 fresh hot chile, such as Thai, Scotch bonnet or serrano, minced with or without seeds
1 tablespoon sherry vinegar
1/2 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves

Steps:

  • Pat the chicken dry and season all over with salt. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium. Add the shallots and cook, turning frequently, until lightly caramelized on all sides, about 5 minutes. Transfer the shallots to a medium bowl and set aside.
  • Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet, and raise the heat to medium-high. Place the chicken skin side down and sear without moving until the skin is golden brown, about 10 minutes. Turn and cook the other side until lightly browned, about 5 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low, and add 1/4 cup water to the skillet. Use a spatula or tongs to loosen any stuck bits. Stir the honey, lime juice, garlic and chile into the liquid around the chicken pieces. Cover with a lid or foil, and cook until the meat is cooked through, about 8 minutes. Uncover, raise the heat to high and cook until the sauce is thickened, about 2 minutes more.
  • Toss the shallots with the sherry vinegar and parsley, and season with salt. Serve the chicken with the dressed shallots and spoon the pan sauce over everything.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality honey. This will make a big difference in the flavor of the glaze.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. It should be cooked through, but not dry.
  • Let the chicken rest before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute and make the chicken more tender.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides. Some good options include mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.

Conclusion:

Apple-honey glazed chicken is a simple but delicious dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like your chicken sweet or savory, this recipe is sure to please. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal, give apple-honey glazed chicken a try.
