ROASTED ORANGE ROSEMARY HONEY GLAZED CHICKEN



Roasted Orange Rosemary Honey Glazed Chicken image

This is always a hit when I make it for dinner parties and Boxing Day dinner because the chicken is always fall-off-the-bone juicy and people love the glaze. People always go for seconds! You may quarter 2 chickens instead if you aren't able to get just legs from your butcher, but I find the legs are juicier and save money. Serve this dish with fragrant rice and dilled carrots or roasted asparagus.

8 large chicken legs
1 tablespoon salt
1 cup honey
1 cup orange juice with pulp
½ cup unsalted butter, at room temperature

2 oranges, zested
2 cloves garlic, minced
ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Sprinkle chicken with salt and place in a large glass or plastic bowl.
  • Whisk together honey, orange juice, butter, rosemary, orange zest, and garlic. Pour orange mixture over chicken; cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 1 hour or overnight.

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!

ORANGE-HONEY GLAZED CHICKEN BREASTS



Orange-Honey Glazed Chicken Breasts image

This is sort of an American-ized version of the French Duck a l'orange. When reducing the glaze in step 4, remember that the skillet handle will be hot; use an oven mitt. To make sure the chicken cooks evenly, buy breasts that are similar in size-about 12 ounces apiece. If the glaze looks dry during baking, add up to 2 tablespoons of juice to the pan. If your skillet is not ovenproof, brown the chicken breasts and reduce the glaze as instructed, then transfer the chicken and glaze to a 13 by 9-inch baking dish and bake (don't wash the skillet). When the chicken is fully cooked, transfer it to a plate to rest and scrape the glaze back into the skillet to be reduced. This recipe was adapted from Cook's Illustrated, published Sept. 2007

Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups orange juice, plus an additional 2 tablespoons
1/3 cup light corn syrup
3 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar
1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes
table salt & fresh ground pepper
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
4 bone-in skin-on chicken breast halves (about 12 ounces each)
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1 medium shallot, minced (about 3 tablespoons)

Steps:

  • Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 375 degrees. Whisk 1 1/2 cups orange juice, corn syrup, honey, mustard, vinegar, pepper flakes, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper together in medium bowl. Place flour in pie plate, then season chicken on both sides with salt and pepper. Working with one chicken breast at a time, coat chicken with flour, patting off excess.
  • Heat oil in ovenproof 12-inch skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add chicken breasts skin-side down; cook until well browned and most of fat has rendered from skin, 8 to 14 minutes. (If after 3 minutes you don't hear definite sizzling, increase heat to medium-high. If after 6 minutes chicken is darker than lightly browned, reduce heat slightly.) Turn chicken and lightly brown other side, about 5 minutes longer. Transfer chicken to plate.
  • Pour off all but 1 teaspoon fat from pan. Add shallot and cook until softened, 1 to 2 minutes. Increase heat to high and add orange juice mixture. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until syrupy and reduced to 1 cup (heatproof spatula should leave slight trail when dragged through glaze), 6 to 10 minutes. Remove skillet from heat and tilt to one side so glaze pools in corner of pan. Using tongs, roll each chicken breast in pooled glaze to coat evenly and place skin-side down in skillet.
  • Transfer skillet to oven and bake chicken until thickest part of breasts registers 160 degrees on instant-read thermometer, 25 to 30 minutes, turning chicken skin-side up halfway through cooking. Transfer chicken to platter and let rest 5 minutes. Return skillet to high heat (be careful-handle will be very hot) and cook glaze, stirring constantly, until thick and syrupy (heatproof spatula should leave wide trail when dragged through glaze), about 1 minute. Remove pan from heat and whisk in remaining 2 tablespoons orange juice. Spoon 1 teaspoon glaze over each breast and serve, passing remaining glaze at table.
  • Variations: Apple-Maple Glazed Chicken Breasts.
  • Follow the recipe above, substituting apple cider for the orange juice and 2 tablespoons maple syrup for the honey.
  • Pineapple-Brown Sugar Glazed Chicken Breasts.
  • Follow the recipe above, substituting pineapple juice for the orange juice and 2 tablespoons brown sugar for the honey.

Provided by Nurslinda

Categories     Chicken

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tablespoon dry mustard (mustard powder)
3 tablespoons white wine vinegar or 3 tablespoons cider vinegar
1/4 cup honey
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (a.k.a. chicken breast halves)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

  • Bake for 10 minutes.
  • Turn chicken breasts over.
  • Brush the other side with the remaining honey mixture.
  • Bake for 10 more min utes, or until juices are clear when chicken is pierced with a knife.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of oranges: For a more complex flavor, use a mix of sweet and tart oranges, such as navel oranges, Valencia oranges, and blood oranges.
  • Don't overdo the honey: Honey can easily burn and become bitter. Add it to the glaze in small amounts and taste it as you go.
  • Cook the chicken breasts over medium heat: This will help to prevent them from drying out.
  • Baste the chicken breasts frequently: This will help to keep them moist and flavorful.
  • Let the chicken breasts rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
