Best 5 Stovetop Orange Glazed Chicken Recipes

ORANGE GLAZED CHICKEN THIGHS

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 425 degrees. Spray a 9x13 pan with non stick cooking spray. If you want to be fancy, line the bottom of the pan with orange slices (optional).
• In a small saucepan, combine the orange juice, orange zest, rice vinegar, soy sauce, brown sugar, ginger, and red pepper flakes. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for about 5 minutes.
• Place your chicken thighs skin-side up in the prepared baking dish. Pour half of the glaze over the chicken thighs.
• Cook in the oven for about 30 minutes. Take the remaining glaze and pour it over the chicken.
• Cook for an additional 15-20 minutes. The skin will get nice and crisp and browned.

HONEY ORANGE GLAZED CHICKEN

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, combine orange juice, cider vinegar, brown sugar, honey, chili powder, coriander, and cumin. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and let simmer for 35-45 minutes or until sauce has reduced to one cup.
• In a medium saucepan add olive oil and heat to medium high heat. Salt and Pepper the chicken thighs and cook until 165 degrees in center and no longer pink. Drizzle the glaze on top and allow to simmer for 1-2 minutes making sure the chicken is coated well in the glaze. Serve immediately.

SWEET ORANGE CHICKEN DRUMSTICKS

Steps:

• Add the onion, orange juice, ketchup, orange marmalade, apple cider vinegar, soy sauce, Dijon, five-spice, paprika, black pepper and garlic to a large resealable plastic bag. Close the bag and shake to incorporate. Add the chicken drumsticks to the bag. Reseal and marinate for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator. (Chicken can be prepped the day before and refrigerated overnight.)
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Pour the entire contents of the bag onto a foil-lined sheet tray. Bake, turning the drumsticks halfway through baking, until the chicken is cooked through, the juices run clear and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of meat (avoiding bone) registers 160 degrees F, about 25 minutes.
• Remove to a platter and let rest 5 minutes, then sprinkle with parsley and serve warm.
