ORANGE MARMALADE MARINATED SALMON, CHICKEN OR PORK



Orange Marmalade Marinated Salmon, Chicken or Pork image

I just love Salmon and I'd say this is my favorite to date. This has an Asian touch. Lots of flavor. I did make this with Salmon but its possibilities are endless like tuna, Mahi Mahi, shrimp, orange roughy... I bet grilled pineapple in this marinade along with the fish or meat would be great! Cooking in a basket will caramelize the fish giving it a crispness and ease in turning it and cooking in foil will keep it moist as well as ease in flipping the fish. Cooking time is up to you I like my salmon very tender so I tend not to overcook it. This is great served on white rice. Leftovers would be great on a salad. The picture here is the salmon made under the broiler.

ORANGE MARMALADE CHICKEN

Orange marmalade is the key ingredient in a simple sauce with broth, lemon juice, flour and pepper added. Chicken breasts are lightly browned, then simmered in the sauce. Serve over hot cooked rice and sprinkle with fresh parsley, if desired. This came from Thinner Times. I have not tried this, just posting for easy finding.

ORANGE MARMALADE CHICKEN WINGS



Orange Marmalade Chicken Wings image

These are made in a pressure cooker. I have a 10 quart one. Because they are so good, expect people to eat double the amount you expect. Buy chicken wings where the wing is already cut in 2 pieces. You can cook a whole wing, but I've noticed that folks are more comfortable with the smaller pieces. Hot sauces: I use...

Categories     Poultry Appetizers

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 lb chicken wings
1/2 c orange marmalade
3/4 c hot sauce
ADDITIONAL BASTING SAUCE
1/2 c hot sauce
1/2 c orange/marmalad
1 c reserved juices from pressure cooker

Steps:

  • 1. In a 2-cup measuring cup mix together 3/4 cup hot sauce and 1/2 cup orange marmalade.
  • 2. In the pot that comes with the pressure cooker, toss the chicken wings with the combined sauce from step 1.
  • 3. Follow your pressure cooker directions, but simply lock the lid, set the steam/pressure release setting so it is closed, and hit the setting for Soups&Stews. (10-15 minutes depending on your cooker. Mine warms up for about 5 min and then cooks for 10 min. Total process is 15 min)
  • 4. After the cooking process is complete, immediately release steam by opening the value setting on your machine. Release all steam and then open and remove the wings and arrange as many as will fit on a broiling pan.
  • 5. Pour out the liquid juices and sauce inside the pressure cooker into large measuring cup. Let sit for a few minutes so that the grease or fat rises to the top. Skim that off and dispose.
  • 6. Mix 1 cup of the reserve defatted juices from step 5 with 1/2 cup of additional hot sauce and 1/2 cup of marmalade. Baste the chicken wings with this mixture and put under a broiler for 5-10 minutes. Make sure the oven rack is not on the first row below the broiler, but the second row. You don't want them to cook too fast and burn. Keep an eye on them. Baste once or twice while under the broiler. Take out and turn the wings over, re-baste and return under broiler. Cook till crispy looking and just starting to burn. Remove and place on a plate while you repeat the process for the rest of the wings that didn't fit on your broiling pan the first time. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • To achieve a crispy and flavorful chicken, make sure to pat it dry before cooking. This helps the skin crisp up and prevents it from becoming soggy.
  • Use a combination of orange marmalade and soy sauce for a sweet and savory marinade. This mixture adds a delicious glaze to the chicken and keeps it moist and tender.
  • If you don't have orange marmalade, you can use a mixture of honey and orange juice instead. This will still give the chicken a sweet and citrusy flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the chicken. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly and will result in soggy skin.
  • Serve the orange marmalade chicken with a side of rice or noodles. This will help to balance out the sweetness of the chicken and make a complete meal.

Conclusion:

Orange marmalade chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of sweet and savory flavors makes this chicken a hit with everyone who tries it. Whether you serve it with rice, noodles, or vegetables, orange marmalade chicken is sure to be a crowd-pleaser.
