Whiskey Orange Chipotle Chicken Thighs and Drumsticks image

This recipe couldn't be easier. You just blitz up a few ingredients to make the marinade, pour it over the chicken, and you're almost done. If you prep it on a weekend day or early in the week, you can just pop it in the fridge and let it hang for up to 2 days, then cook it whenever you're ready. The chicken comes out of the oven sweet and spicy with lots of little crunchy caramelized bits on the skin--amazing!

Time 9h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 bunch fresh cilantro, rinsed and dried, plus more for garnish
4 garlic cloves, peeled
One 8-ounce can chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (use half a can if you prefer it less spicy)
One 6-ounce can tomato paste
1 1/2 cups orange marmalade
1 cup whiskey (substitute orange juice for a nonalcoholic version)
1/3 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
6 chicken thighs
6 chicken drumsticks

Steps:

  • Add the cilantro, garlic, chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, tomato paste, marmalade, whiskey, olive oil, salt and black pepper to a food processor or blender. Puree until smooth. Put the chicken thighs and drumsticks in a resealable bag or an airtight container. Pour the marinade over the chicken and refrigerate for at least 8 hours and up to 2 days (if the chicken is in a bag, place the bag in a baking dish before refrigerating it to avoid leaks).
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Arrange the chicken in a large roasting pan, skin-side up. Pour in the marinade along with the chicken.
  • Bake until the skin is fully caramelized and crispy and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the thighs reads 170 degrees F, 45 to 55 minutes. Serve garnished with a bit of fresh cilantro.

ORANGE-CHIPOTLE CHICKEN



Orange-Chipotle Chicken image

Big on flavor and easy on the cook's time, this orange-chipotle chicken recipe is appealing. The sweet-yet-hot sauce gets its heat from the chipotle pepper. I serve this dish with a side of rice. —Cittie, Tasteofhome.com Community

BAKED ORANGE-GLAZED CHICKEN



Baked Orange-Glazed Chicken image

One of my favorite recipes! The combination of paprika and mustard powder really offsets the sweetness of the orange juice. I tend to eyeball when cooking, so if you cook more breasts or use a large pan, make extra sauce to baste with. I'll frequently use extra glaze when baking just so there's plenty to pour over rice once it's done!

Tips:

  • To achieve a perfectly glazed chicken, it's crucial to pat it dry before cooking. This helps the glaze adhere better and results in a crispy, evenly browned exterior.
  • For a zesty and flavorful glaze, use freshly squeezed orange juice. Avoid pre-packaged or bottled juice, as they often contain added sugars and preservatives that can alter the taste.
  • Chipotle peppers add a smoky heat to the glaze. If you prefer a milder flavor, use fewer peppers or substitute them with milder chili peppers.
  • To ensure the chicken is cooked thoroughly, use an instant-read thermometer to check that the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) in the thickest part of the thigh.
  • Garnish the finished dish with fresh cilantro or chopped green onions for an extra pop of color and flavor.

This delectable Chicken with Orange Chipotle Glaze is a symphony of flavors that will tantalize your taste buds.
