TROPICAL BAKED CHICKEN

This a favorite during the summer for my family! Just add a pasta salad with lots of fresh vegetables that are in season. The prep time will depend on how long you let it marinade and cooking time will vary depending on which pieces of the chicken you use. Sometimes I use a whole cut up chicken others wings and legs.

Ingredients

3 lb chicken pieces
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp ground ginger
1 egg slightly beaten
1/3 c frozen pineapple/orange juice concentrate, thawed
4 Tbsp teriyaki sauce
1 c ritz crackers crushed
1/2 c frenches fried onions crushed
1/2 c flaked coconut
1/2 tsp curry powder
1/2 tsp orange zest
3 Tbsp melted butter

Steps:

1. 1. Place chicken in a single layer in a shallow dish. Sprinkle with salt. Stir together egg, juice concentrate and teriyaki sauce. Pour over over chicken, cover and chill at least 4 hours ( I do 24 for more flavor). Turn several times,
2. 2. Place Ritz crackers and French onions crumbs in a zip lock bag, add coconut, onion powder, ginger and curry powder. Drain chicken pieces place a few pieces at a time in zip lock bag with crumb mixture. Place in a single layer skin side up in shallow baking pan, coated with cooking spray. Drizzle with butter.
3. 3. Bake in preheated oven 350 for about an hour, chicken will be tender and juices will run clear. Do not turn chicken or cover it while it is cooking. Let it sit at least 5 minutes before serving.

Tips:

Use a flavorful marinade. This will help to infuse the chicken with flavor and keep it moist during baking. Some good options include a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, herbs, and spices, or a marinade made with yogurt, garlic, and ginger.
Sear the chicken before baking. This will help to create a golden brown crust and lock in the juices. To sear the chicken, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for a few minutes per side, or until browned.
Roast the chicken at a high temperature. This will help to create a crispy skin and juicy meat. The ideal temperature for roasting chicken is 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked through. The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit before you remove it from the oven.
Let the chicken rest before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.

Conclusion:

Tropical baked chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its bold flavors and vibrant colors, this dish is sure to impress your guests. Whether you are looking for a quick weeknight meal or a special occasion dinner, tropical baked chicken is a great choice.
