BAKED ORANGE-GLAZED CHICKEN
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!

Steps:

- For the chicken: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil and set a rack over the sheet.
- Pat the chicken dry with a paper towel. Coat the chicken with the canola oil and generously sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place on the rack set over the baking sheet and roast in the oven until cooked through and the internal temperature is 165 degrees F, 40 to 50 minutes depending on the size of the chicken.

Steps:
- Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 450°F. Line a large shallow (1-inch-deep) baking pan with foil, then oil foil.
- Stir together marmalade, mustard, soy sauce, and lemon juice in a small bowl.
- Pat chicken dry and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast chicken, skin sides up, in baking pan until golden and just cooked through, about 30 minutes.
- Turn broiler on and spoon marmalade mixture over chicken, then broil chicken until glaze is bubbling and browned, 3 to 5 minutes.
Tips:
- Use fresh orange juice: Fresh orange juice imparts a brighter, more vibrant flavor to the glaze than store-bought juice.
- Zest the oranges before juicing them: Orange zest adds a lovely citrusy aroma and flavor to the glaze.
- Use a good quality honey: A good quality honey will have a richer flavor and will help to thicken the glaze.
- Don't overcook the chicken: Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough. Cook the chicken until it is just cooked through, about 8-10 minutes per side.
- Baste the chicken frequently: Basting the chicken with the glaze will help to keep it moist and flavorful.
- Serve the chicken immediately: Orange glazed chicken is best served immediately, while the glaze is still warm and sticky.
Conclusion:
This recipe for quick orange glazed chicken is a delicious and easy weeknight meal. The chicken is tender and juicy, and the orange glaze is sweet and tangy. This dish is sure to be a hit with the whole family. Serve it with rice, roasted vegetables, or a salad for a complete meal.
