EASY APRICOT GLAZED CHICKEN



Easy Apricot Glazed Chicken image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h50m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

One 5-to-6-pound roasting chicken, giblets removed
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, optional
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1/4 cup apricot preserves
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon cider vinegar
1 cup chicken broth

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Rinse the chicken with cool water and pat dry. Place the chicken in a roasting pan on a rack, breast side up. Sprinkle the cavity of the chicken with salt and pepper. Tuck the wing tips under the back of the chicken.
  • Combine 4 tablespoons butter, parsley if using, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Loosen the skin on the breast of the chicken by gently wriggling fingers under the skin. Rub outside of the chicken with about 1 tablespoon of the butter mixture. Rub the remaining mixture under the skin of the chicken breast. Sprinkle chicken with additional salt and pepper. Roast the chicken for 1 hour 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, melt the remaining 1 tablespoon butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant but not browned, about 2 minutes. Spoon the garlic out of the saucepan and discard. Add the apricot preserves, mustard and vinegar and cook, stirring, until warmed through and combined, about 2 minutes. Set aside to cool until ready to glaze the chicken.
  • Increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees F. Remove the chicken from the oven and brush evenly with the apricot glaze. Continue roasting until an instant-read thermometer stuck into the chicken thigh registers 160 degrees F, about 15 minutes more. Tip the chicken so the juices run into the pan. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and loosely tent with foil.
  • Pour the juices from the pan into a degreasing cup or glass measuring cup. Pour or spoon off excess fat and discard. Add the chicken broth to the roasting pan and place directly on a burner over medium heat. Add the pan drippings and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, and scraping up any browned bits, until the mixture is hot, about 2 minutes. Strain and pour into a gravy boat and season with salt and pepper. Carve the chicken and serve with the sauce.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken. Boneless, skinless chicken tenders are the best choice for this recipe. They're easy to cook and they hold the glaze well.
  • Make sure the chicken is evenly coated in the glaze. This will help to ensure that the chicken is evenly cooked and that the glaze doesn't burn.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. If you're cooking a lot of chicken tenders, cook them in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. This will help to ensure that the chicken cooks evenly.
  • Cook the chicken until it is golden brown and cooked through. The chicken should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Serve the chicken tenders immediately. They're best served hot and fresh out of the oven.

Conclusion:

Apricot glazed chicken tenders are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. They're also a great option for parties and potlucks. The sweet and tangy glaze adds a lot of flavor to the chicken, and the chicken tenders are always a crowd-pleaser.
