Categories     main-dish

Time 15m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

5 airline chicken breasts, skin on
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 to 3 tablespoons canola oil
12 to 16 ounces Orange Marmalade, recipe follows
Wilted romaine, recipe follows
5 oranges or tangerines, washed and dried
1/2 cup honey
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 lemon, juiced
1 vanilla bean, split and scraped, or 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 tablespoons butter
5 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
5 heads romaine, washed and dried, leaves picked
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 lemon, halved

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, to taste. In a large saute pan over high heat, add the oil. Once heated, place the chicken into the pan. Cover the chicken with aluminum foil and place another heavy pan on top. Cook the chicken until the skin is golden brown, about 5 to 8 minutes, and then flip and cook until cooked through, about 5 to 8 more minutes. Serve with the marmalade and wilted romaine.
  • Place the oranges on a flat surface and slice a few thin rounds from both ends. Avoid the center part because that's where a large concentration of the pits are.
  • Measure the honey directly into a medium skillet over low heat until it melts. Add the oranges rounds and bring the mix to a boil. Add a sprinkle of salt and pepper, to taste. Add the juice of the lemon and the vanilla. Stir to blend. Cook for an additional 2 minutes and then transfer to a bowl to cool.
  • In a large skillet, heat the butter and add the garlic over medium heat. Cook until fragrant and add the romaine. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Use a wooden spoon and stir to blend for an additional minute. Remove from the heat and drain any liquid remaining. Add a few squirts of lemon juice and serve with chicken.

MARMALADE CHICKEN



Marmalade Chicken image

Categories     Chicken     Fruit     Herb     Poultry     Marinate     Roast     Low Fat     Kid-Friendly     Orange     Bon Appétit     Small Plates

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/4 cup orange marmalade
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup dry white wine
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme, crumbled
1 3-pound chicken, cut into 8 pieces

Steps:

  • Combine first 5 ingredients in large bowl. Remove any visible fat and excess skin from chicken. Add chicken to bowl with marinade; toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate 4 hours or overnight, stirring occasionally.
  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Place wire rack atop baking sheet. Remove chicken from marinade, reserving marinade. Place chicken skin side up on rack. Bake chicken 20 minutes. Turn chicken and bake 20 minutes longer. Turn chicken skin side up and continue cooking until skin is golden brown and chicken is almost cooked through, approximately 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, boil marinade in heavy small saucepan until reduced to glaze, about 10 minutes. Brush chicken with glaze. Bake chicken until glaze is just set and chicken is cooked through, approximately 5 minutes. Serve.

Tips for Making Chicken Breasts with Marmalade:

  • Choose the right marmalade. A good-quality marmalade will make all the difference in this dish. Look for a marmalade made with real fruit and a high percentage of fruit (at least 60%). Avoid marmalades that are made with a lot of sugar or corn syrup.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken breasts can easily become dry and tough if they are overcooked. Cook them until they are just cooked through, about 10 minutes per side.
  • Let the chicken rest before serving. This will help the juices redistribute and make the chicken more tender.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides. Roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, and rice are all good options.

Conclusion:

Chicken breasts with marmalade is a simple but flavorful dish that can be easily prepared in under 30 minutes. The combination of sweet and tangy marmalade and tender chicken is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal, give chicken breasts with marmalade a try. You won't be disappointed!
