Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 pounds skin-on, bone-in chicken breasts, cut into large chunks
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 apples (1 red, 1 green), cored and cut into wedges
8 medium shallots, quartered lengthwise
1/4 cup fresh sage leaves, torn
1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1/4 cup pure maple syrup

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!

Provided by Mary Cadogan

Categories     Dinner, Lunch, Main course

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts , about 500g/1lb 2oz total weight
3 tbsp maple syrup
1 tbsp wholegrain mustard
grated zest of 1 orange

Add the chicken breasts and turn them in the mixture until they are evenly coated. At this point you can cover the dish with cling film and chill the chicken for 24 hours, but it's also fine to cook them straight away.
  • Preheat the grill or light the BBQ. Then cook the chicken for 5-6 minutes each side, turning once and brushing or spooning over more marinade as you go, until the chicken is browned and glossy. Serve the chicken on a bed of dressed salad leaves.

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
1/3 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
2 teaspoons frozen orange juice concentrate (optional, for a more intense orange flavor)
2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 teaspoons honey
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons grainy style Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon canola oil
1 teaspoon grated orange rind
1 teaspoon chopped fresh tarragon or 1/2 teaspoon dried
1 bunch watercress

Steps:

  • Place the chicken breasts in a single layer in a glass or ceramic baking dish.
