ORANGE-ROSEMARY ROAST CHICKEN



Orange-Rosemary Roast Chicken image

Sheet pan chicken is perfect for weeknight dinner.

Provided by Marianne Williams

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 medium navel oranges, divided
1 ½ pounds baby Yukon Gold potatoes, cut into ¾-inch-thick wedges
⅓ cup loosely packed fresh rosemary leaves, divided
¼ cup olive oil, divided
2 ¼ teaspoons kosher salt, divided
½ teaspoon black pepper, divided
6 (6- to 7-oz.) bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
1 tablespoon white balsamic vinegar
¼ teaspoon honey
½ cup mixed Kalamata and Castelvetrano olives, pitted and cut into pieces
⅓ cup thinly sliced scallions
1 ounce Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, shaved (about ½ cup)

Steps:

  • Place a large rimmed baking sheet in oven; preheat oven to 425°F. (Do not remove baking sheet while oven preheats.) Thinly slice 1 ½ of the oranges; place in a large bowl. Squeeze juice from remaining orange half into a small bowl to equal 2 tablespoons; set aside. Add potato wedges and ¼ cup of the rosemary leaves to orange slices; stir to combine. Add 1 tablespoon of the oil, ¾ teaspoon of the salt, and ¼ teaspoon of the pepper; toss to coat. Scatter potato mixture evenly over preheated pan; bake until starting to brown, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, season chicken evenly with 1 teaspoon of the salt and remaining ¼ teaspoon pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high. Add chicken, skin side down; cook until deep golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Turn chicken; continue cooking until golden brown on both sides, about 4 more minutes. Transfer to baking sheet with potato mixture; return to oven. Bake at 425°F until potatoes are browned and tender and a meat thermometer inserted into thickest part of chicken thighs registers 165°F, 12 to 15 more minutes.
  • While chicken and potatoes finish baking, whisk together vinegar, honey, 2 tablespoons orange juice, and remaining ½ teaspoon salt and 1 tablespoon oil in a small bowl; set aside. Remove baking sheet from oven; scatter olives, scallions, and shaved cheese over chicken and potatoes. Drizzle with juice mixture; sprinkle with remaining rosemary.

CITRUS ROSEMARY CHICKEN RECIPE



Citrus Rosemary Chicken Recipe image

Crisp, tangy, and succulent citrus rosemary chicken, seasoned Mediterranean-style with garlic, rosemary, and oregano, and covered in a bold wine and orange marinade. Use split chicken or chicken pieces of similar size for even cooking. For best flavor, allow 30 minutes to 2 hours for marinating.

Provided by Suzy Karadsheh

Categories     Dinner

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 whole chicken ((about 3 ½ pounds), split in half through the backbone)
Kosher salt
1 cup Erath Pinot Noir
1 orange zested and juiced (plus 1 sliced orange)
1 lime (juiced, plus 1 sliced lime)
Extra virgin olive oil
3 tbsp tomato paste
1 ½ tsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried rosemary
1 tsp sweet paprika
1 tsp Aleppo pepper
7 to 8 garlic cloves (minced)
1 yellow onion (halved and sliced)
1 tbsp honey

Steps:

  • Season the chicken with kosher salt on all sides, making sure to season underneath the skin as well. (You can do this one night ahead of time and keep the chicken in the fridge to air-chill uncovered).
  • Prepare the citrus marinade. In a large bowl, add the wine, orange juice and zest, lime juice, 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, tomato paste, spices, and a good dash of kosher salt. Add the garlic and onion. Whisk to combine.
  • Add the chicken and toss to coat, making sure to lift the skin up and spoon some of the marinade underneath (this will give you more flavor). Set aside at room temperature for 30 minutes. Alternatively, cover and refrigerate for an hour or two (for best results, take it out of the fridge and leave the chicken at room temperature for 30 to 45 minutes before cooking)
  • Preheat the oven to 425 F and adjust a rack in the middle.
  • Transfer the chicken and the marinade to a braising pan. Roast for 30 minutes, then carefully turn the pan 180 degrees and roast for another 15 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked and tender (juices should run clear).
  • In a small bowl, mix together the honey with 1 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil. Carefully remove the chicken from the oven and brush the top with the honey and olive oil mixture.
  • Switch the oven to the broil function. Return the chicken back to the oven about 6 inches away from the broiler and cook briefly for 3 to 4 minutes, watching for the skin to turn a nice golden brown.
  • Remove from the heat and finish with lime juice. Add slices of fresh orange and wedges of lime.

ROASTED ORANGE CHICKEN



Roasted Orange Chicken image

Whole tangerines, peel and all, roast alongside chicken in a sweetened soy sauce that thickens into a glaze and lacquers the bird. The fruit wedges soften in the syrupy sauce while infusing it with their floral bittersweetness. Reminiscent of savory Cantonese soy sauce chicken and tangy American Chinese orange chicken, this dish also combines the warmth of ginger with the bit of heat from ground hot chiles. You can eat the tangerine wedges along with the chicken, which is delicious with its sauce over steamed rice or boiled noodles. Serve with stir-fried brussels sprouts or bok choy.

Provided by Genevieve Ko

Categories     poultry, main course

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 small tangerines or clementines
1/2 packed cup dark brown sugar
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons rice vinegar or distilled white vinegar
1 teaspoon ground cayenne or other hot red ground chile
1 (4-pound) whole chicken
Salt and black pepper
8 slices peeled fresh ginger

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Squeeze 1/4 cup juice from 2 to 3 tangerines into a small bowl; reserve the spent peels. Cut the remaining tangerines into wedges with their peels intact, and set aside. Add the brown sugar, soy sauce, vinegar and cayenne to the tangerine juice and whisk until the sugar dissolves.
  • Generously season the chicken inside and out with salt and pepper. Tuck the wingtips behind the body. Stuff the tangerine peels and 6 ginger slices into the cavity, then tie the legs together using kitchen twine. Place in a large ovenproof skillet, and scatter the tangerine wedges and remaining 2 slices ginger around the chicken.
  • Slowly pour the juice mixture all over the chicken, then slide the skillet into the oven. Roast for 30 minutes.
  • Using a large spoon or baster, quickly and carefully coat the chicken with the pan sauce. Continue roasting, basting every 10 minutes, until the chicken is browned and cooked through, 20 to 30 minutes longer. An instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the breast should register 155 degrees and, in the leg, 170 degrees. The chicken will continue to cook while it rests.
  • Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and let rest for about 5 minutes. If the pan sauce isn't already syrupy, bring it to a boil over medium-high heat on the stovetop. Be sure to wear oven mitts or use a kitchen towel to hold the skillet (the handle is hot). Cook, stirring occasionally, until the bubbles grow larger and paler brown, and the sauce is the consistency of syrup, about 5 minutes. Discard the ginger.
  • Serve the chicken whole or carved with the glaze poured all over the meat. Arrange the tangerine wedges from the pan around the bird. You can eat them, if you'd like.
