BAKED ORANGE-GLAZED CHICKEN



Baked Orange-Glazed Chicken image

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!

ORANGE-HONEY GLAZED CHICKEN BREASTS



Orange-Honey Glazed Chicken Breasts image

This is sort of an American-ized version of the French Duck a l'orange. When reducing the glaze in step 4, remember that the skillet handle will be hot; use an oven mitt. To make sure the chicken cooks evenly, buy breasts that are similar in size-about 12 ounces apiece. If the glaze looks dry during baking, add up to 2 tablespoons of juice to the pan. If your skillet is not ovenproof, brown the chicken breasts and reduce the glaze as instructed, then transfer the chicken and glaze to a 13 by 9-inch baking dish and bake (don't wash the skillet). When the chicken is fully cooked, transfer it to a plate to rest and scrape the glaze back into the skillet to be reduced. This recipe was adapted from Cook's Illustrated, published Sept. 2007

Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups orange juice, plus an additional 2 tablespoons
1/3 cup light corn syrup
3 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar
1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes
table salt & fresh ground pepper
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
4 bone-in skin-on chicken breast halves (about 12 ounces each)
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1 medium shallot, minced (about 3 tablespoons)

Steps:

  • Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 375 degrees. Whisk 1 1/2 cups orange juice, corn syrup, honey, mustard, vinegar, pepper flakes, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper together in medium bowl. Place flour in pie plate, then season chicken on both sides with salt and pepper. Working with one chicken breast at a time, coat chicken with flour, patting off excess.
  • Heat oil in ovenproof 12-inch skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add chicken breasts skin-side down; cook until well browned and most of fat has rendered from skin, 8 to 14 minutes. (If after 3 minutes you don't hear definite sizzling, increase heat to medium-high. If after 6 minutes chicken is darker than lightly browned, reduce heat slightly.) Turn chicken and lightly brown other side, about 5 minutes longer. Transfer chicken to plate.
  • Pour off all but 1 teaspoon fat from pan. Add shallot and cook until softened, 1 to 2 minutes. Increase heat to high and add orange juice mixture. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until syrupy and reduced to 1 cup (heatproof spatula should leave slight trail when dragged through glaze), 6 to 10 minutes. Remove skillet from heat and tilt to one side so glaze pools in corner of pan. Using tongs, roll each chicken breast in pooled glaze to coat evenly and place skin-side down in skillet.
  • Transfer skillet to oven and bake chicken until thickest part of breasts registers 160 degrees on instant-read thermometer, 25 to 30 minutes, turning chicken skin-side up halfway through cooking. Transfer chicken to platter and let rest 5 minutes. Return skillet to high heat (be careful-handle will be very hot) and cook glaze, stirring constantly, until thick and syrupy (heatproof spatula should leave wide trail when dragged through glaze), about 1 minute. Remove pan from heat and whisk in remaining 2 tablespoons orange juice. Spoon 1 teaspoon glaze over each breast and serve, passing remaining glaze at table.

Tips:

  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, cook the chicken until the juices run clear when pierced with a knife.
  • To make the glaze, use a high-quality orange marmalade. This will give the glaze a rich, flavorful taste.
  • If you don't have orange marmalade, you can use a combination of orange juice and honey.
  • Be sure to whisk the glaze together until it is smooth and well combined.
  • When basting the chicken, use a pastry brush to evenly coat the chicken with the glaze.
  • Baste the chicken every 10-15 minutes during cooking to ensure that it is evenly glazed.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or rice.

Conclusion:
