Apple Honey Glazed Chicken Food

APPLE HONEY GLAZED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Mix apple jelly, honey, mustard, cinnamon, and salt together in a bowl. Brush chicken breasts with glaze.
• Place glazed chicken breasts on the preheated grill; cook, occasionally brushing chicken with more glaze, until chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 10 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

APPLE-HONEY DRUMSTICKS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Set a wire rack on a rimmed baking sheet. Put the drumsticks on the rack and season both sides generously with salt and pepper. Bake 30 minutes; flip the drumsticks and continue baking until golden and crisp, about 30 more minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the sauce: Bring the apple juice, vinegar, soy sauce, honey, lemon zest, red pepper flakes and a pinch of salt to a high simmer in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook until the sauce is syrupy and coats the back of a spoon, 20 to 25 minutes. Set aside until the chicken is done.
• Stir the sesame seeds into the sauce, if using, and warm over medium heat, if necessary. Transfer the chicken to a large bowl. Add the sauce and butter and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer the chicken to a platter and drizzle with any remaining sauce from the bowl.

APPLE HONEY MUSTARD CHICKEN

Steps:

• Heat grill. In small saucepan, combine all glaze ingredients; mix well. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Boil 1 minute, stirring constantly.
• When ready to grill, lightly brush glaze on one side of each chicken breast half. Place chicken, glaze side down, on gas grill over medium heat or on charcoal grill 4 to 6 inches from medium coals. Lightly brush glaze over chicken; cook 5 to 8 minutes.
• Turn chicken; cook an additional 5 to 8 minutes or until fork-tender and juices run clear. Bring any remaining glaze to a boil; serve with chicken.

APPLE-GLAZED CHICKEN THIGHS

Steps:

• Sprinkle chicken with seasoned salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Brown chicken on both sides. Remove from pan., Add juice and thyme to skillet. Bring to a boil, stirring to loosen browned bits from pan; cook until liquid is reduced by half. Return chicken to pan; cook, covered, over medium heat 3-4 minutes longer or until a thermometer inserted in chicken reads 170°.

APPLE & HONEY GLAZE

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine all ingredients.
• Spoon 3/4 mixture over ham during the last 30 minutes of baking time.
• Heat remaining sauce and serve with ham.

GRILLED APPLE HONEY CHICKEN

Steps:

• Spray grill racks with non-stick spray and then preheat grill.
• In a small bowl, combine all the ingredients except the chicken; blending well.
• When ready to BBQ, brush chicken with jelly mixture and place on gas grill over medium heat (or on charcoal grill 4-6 inches from medium coals).
• Cook for 15-20 minutes or until chicken is fully cooked (180F) - turning often so chicken does not burn on the outside and baste often with jelly mixture. (Throw away any leftover jelly mixture due to cross contamination).

APPLE BUTTER-GLAZED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Heat the apple butter, mustard, butter, sugar, celery seed and onion to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Remove from heat; cool.
• Place the chicken in a food storage bag. Pour half of the apple butter mixture over the chicken; reserve remaining mixture. Seal bag; smush around so the chicken gets thoroughly coated. Refrigerate 1 hour.
• Heat a grill pan over high heat. Brush off extra sauce from the chicken and discard. Cook chicken, in batches if necessary, turning occasionally, until browned, about 20 minutes. Continue cooking, brushing with reserved marinade, until chicken is cooked through, 15-25 minutes longer.
