Sticky Orange Chicken Food

STICKY ORANGE-GLAZED CHICKEN THIGHS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees, with rack in upper third. Season chicken with salt and pepper and arrange, skin side down, on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until deep golden brown and cooked through, 45 to 50 minutes, flipping halfway through.
• Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, combine 1 teaspoon salt, juice concentrate, ketchup, brown sugar, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, and hot sauce. Bring to a simmer and cook until mixture has thickened, 18 to 20 minutes.
• Heat broiler. Transfer chicken to a large bowl, add glaze, and toss to coat. Drain off fat from sheet. Return chicken to sheet and broil until sauce is bubbling and chicken is dark brown in spots, 1 to 2 minutes.

QUICK AND EASY SWEET AND STICKY ORANGE CHICKEN GLAZE

Steps:

• To make the glaze: In a medium bowl, mix the hoisin, orange zest and enough orange juice so the hoisin is a little looser but still thick enough to stick to the chicken.
• Toss with hot chicken and sprinkle with sesame seeds to coat.

SPICY ORANGE CHICKEN

Steps:

• Whisk orange juice, brown sugar, rice vinegar, fish sauce, soy sauce, ginger, and crushed red pepper flakes in a large bowl.
• Mix in chicken pieces and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
• Remove chicken from refrigerator and drain thoroughly in colander, reserving marinade.
• Heat a large non-stick skillet over high heat. Cook and stir chicken for 2 minutes; spoon out any excess liquid.
• Continue to cook and stir until chicken caramelizes, 6 to 7 minutes.
• Stir in white portions of green onions, garlic, and orange zest; cook and stir 2 to 3 minutes.
• Pour in half of reserved marinade. Simmer until reduced and thickened, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Stir in jalapeno pepper, bell pepper, and sugar snap peas; cook and stir until vegetables are warmed, about 2 minutes.
• Stir in green portions of green onions; cook and stir 1 minute.
• Remove from heat. Garnish with cilantro and serve.

STICKY ORANGE CHICKEN

Steps:

• Place the potatoes in a pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil.
• Salt the water and cook the potatoes until tender, 15-18 minutes; once tender, drain and return to the hot pot.
• Mash with the cider and cream, then season with cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and pepper.
• While the potatoes cook, heat the oil in a cast-iron or stainless steel skillet.
• Add the chicken to the hot pan and cook for 10 minutes, turning once.
• Transfer the chicken to a plate and deglaze the pan with the vinegar.
• Whisk in the marmalade, stock, and herbs.
• Add the chicken back to the skillet and turn it in the sauce to coat.
• Let the sauce thicken for 1-2 minutes, then serve the chicken and sauce with mashed sweet potatoes alongside.

STICKY CHICKEN & BLOOD ORANGE STIR FRY

Steps:

• First things first, put the kettle on, tip the spinach into a colander and sit the colander in the sink. Then, in a small bowl, whisk together the orange zest and juice, honey, soy sauce, ginger and garlic - a micro whisk is perfect for this job.
• Put the noodles in a deep bowl and pour boiling water from the kettle to just cover. Leave to soak for 4 minutes, then very carefully and slowly pour the noodles and water over the spinach in the colander and toss the noodles with the spinach so it wilts. Drizzle the sesame oil over and mix gently. Put to one side.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a wok until it's very hot, tip in the chicken strips and fry over a high heat for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is golden brown all over. Pour the orange and honey mix over the chicken. At first it will bubble furiously but after a few moments it will calm down. Bubble and stir the sauce and chicken for 2 minutes until the sauce is thick and shiny and has glazed the chicken.
• Tip the noodles, spinach and chilli flakes into the wok with the chicken. Gently toss everything together to warm through, then season with salt and pepper. Pile the noodles and chicken on a plate. A splash more soy sauce and a glass of chilled white wine are the only accompaniments this noodle supper needs.

STICKY ORANGE CHICKEN WITH NECTARINES

Steps:

• Mix orange juice, soy sauce, honey, hot sauce, brown sugar, ginger, and garlic together in a small bowl to make the sauce.
• Season flour lightly with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Cut chicken breasts into 1/2-inch strips. Dredge chicken pieces in the seasoned flour; sprinkle more salt and pepper on top.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken strips and brown on both sides, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Pour in the orange sauce. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, until sauce thickens and chicken is no longer pink in the centers, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Plate the chicken and top with nectarine slices.

STICKY ORANGE CHICKEN WITH PARSNIPS, MAPLE & PECANS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Juice 1 of the oranges and whisk together with the maple syrup, olive oil, vinegar, mustard and cranberry jelly. Cut the parsnips into chunky lengths. Put the parnips, chicken thighs and shallots in a roasting tin - make sure everything can sit in a single layer but quite snug. Drizzle over half the orange sauce with some seasoning and toss to coat everything. Roast for 35 mins.
• Remove the tin from the oven and poke the orange slices in among everything. Scatter over the thyme and drizzle over the rest of the orange sauce. Roast for another 15 mins until the chicken is tender and cooked through, and everything is sticky and golden. Mix in the pecans and cook for another 5 mins. Serve straight away, remembering to scrape out all the sticky juices from the tin, and eat with a mixed leaf salad or some wilted spinach, plus a little rice to soak up the sauce, if you like.
