Provided by Chrissie (thebusybaker.ca)

Categories     Dinner     Main Course

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1-2 tablespoons olive oil
10-12 chicken drumsticks, bone-in and skin-on
salt and pepper
1 cup orange juice (freshly squeezed, or whatever you have)
3 tablespoons liquid honey
a squirt of sriracha (according to your tastes)
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
4 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 teaspoons sesame oil
1 1/2 teaspoons freshly grated ginger
3 cloves garlic, finely minced
orange slices, sesame seeds, and fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
  • Pat the chicken drumsticks dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper.
  • Place the chicken drumsticks in the oiled pan and cook on all sides until golden brown. No need to worry about cooking the chicken through at this point - just get a good golden crust on it!
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the orange juice, honey, sriracha, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, soy sauce, cornstarch, sesame oil, ginger and garlic until well blended.
  • When the chicken has browned on all sides, pour the sauce over the chicken evenly to coat and turn off the heat under the pan.
  • Place the pan in the pre-heated oven and bake for about 25 minutes or until the sauce has reduced and thickened and the chicken is cooked through.
  • Baste the chicken with the sauce once during the baking process, if desired.
  • Serve with orange slices, a sprinkling of sesame seeds, and fresh parsley, if desired.

ORANGE GINGER CHICKEN-A FLAVORFUL CHICKEN DISH.



Orange Ginger Chicken-A Flavorful Chicken Dish. image

Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup orange juice
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 teaspoon grated orange zest (peel)
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
One 3 1/2 pound frying chicken, quartered

Steps:

  • Combine the orange juice, soy sauce, orange zest, ginger, and onion powder in a large plastic storage bag. Add the chicken, squeeze out excess air, seal tightly, and massage to coat the chicken all over. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours and up to overnight. Preheat a broiler or set up a grill. Remove the chicken from the marinade and broil or grill for about 15 minutes a side, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 170 degrees and the juices run clear when pricked with a fork.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Chop, mince, and measure all of your ingredients before you start cooking. This will help you stay organized and ensure that you don't miss anything.
  • Use a sharp knife: A sharp knife will make quick work of chopping and mincing. It will also help you get clean, even cuts, which will result in a more visually appealing dish.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When you're cooking the chicken, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly. If you need to cook the chicken in batches, that's fine.
  • Cook the chicken until it's golden brown: The chicken should be cooked until it's golden brown on all sides. This will give it a delicious flavor and texture.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Overcooked chicken is dry and tough. Be careful not to overcook the chicken, or it will be tough and dry.
  • Use fresh orange juice: Fresh orange juice is essential for this recipe. It gives the dish its bright, citrusy flavor. If you don't have fresh orange juice, you can use bottled orange juice, but the flavor will be slightly less intense.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs: Garnish the dish with fresh herbs, such as cilantro or parsley. This will add a pop of color and flavor.

Conclusion:

Orange ginger chicken is a flavorful and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of sweet, sour, and savory flavors is sure to please everyone at the table. Serve it with rice or noodles, and enjoy!
