ORANGE-BALSAMIC CHICKEN

My mom was cleaning out one of her closets and came across several folders full of recipes that she had clipped from magazines and newpapers over the years. This appears to have come from an advertisement for a Weight Watchers Cookbook called "Quick Cooking for Busy People". I don't know if they used the same point system back then as they do now but this claims to be worth 4 points. Anyway, it's a quick and tasty way to make chicken!

Provided by Miraklegirl

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3/4 cup fresh orange juice
3 tablespoons dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 teaspoons dry mustard
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
3 -4 lbs roasting chickens, cut into pieces or 3 1/2 lbs chicken pieces, rinsed and dried
salt & freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Set a rack at the highest oven position and heat the oven to 400°F.
  • In a small saucepan, combine the orange juice and brown sugar and boil until reduced by half.
  • Stir in the balsamic vinegar, dry mustard, and thyme.
  • Pour into a small, shallow bowl; mix until smooth.
  • Dredge each chicken piece in the glaze, coating completely.
  • Put the pieces, skin side down, in a rimmed, shallow 10x15-inch sheet pan.
  • Pour any leftover glaze over the chicken; sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper.
  • Roast on the top rack until the juices run barely clear when you prick the chicken, about 40 minute Remove the pan from the oven and set the broiler on high.
  • Turn the chicken over and baste it with the pan drippings.
  • If a lot of fat has rendered out, spoon some off before broiling to prevent flare-ups.
  • Broil, basting the chicken and rotating the pan for even browning, until the chicken pieces are shiny and well browned, about 8 minutes.
  • Drizzle the chicken with the pan drippings before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken. Bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts or thighs are best for this recipe. The bones and skin help to keep the chicken moist and flavorful.
  • Marinate the chicken. Marinating the chicken in the orange balsamic glaze for at least 30 minutes helps to infuse it with flavor. You can also marinate the chicken overnight for even more flavor.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat. Cooking the chicken over medium heat helps to prevent it from drying out. You can also cook the chicken in the oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until it is cooked through.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked through. The chicken is cooked through when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the chicken rest before serving. Letting the chicken rest for 5-10 minutes before serving allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful chicken.

Conclusion:

This orange balsamic glazed chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The chicken is moist and flavorful, and the orange balsamic glaze is sweet and tangy. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
