Glazed Oranges Recipes

GLACEED ORANGE SLICES

Steps:

• Leaving peel on, cut oranges into 1/4-inch rounds, then cut each round into a half-moon.
• Bring sugar and 2 cups water to a boil in a large pot, stirring occasionally, until sugar dissolves. Wash down sides of pot with a wet pastry brush to prevent sugar crystals from forming. Add orange slices to boiling syrup; reduce heat. Cover with parchment, and gently simmer until orange slices are soft and glazed, about 1 hour and 45 minutes.
• Using a slotted spoon, transfer peel to a wire rack set on a rimmed baking sheet. Let dry until just slightly tacky, about 5 hours. Store in an airtight container for 2 days.

ORANGE GLAZE I

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients together well. Add more confectioner's sugar or orange juice to make the proper consistency for a barely pourable glaze.

ORANGE GLAZED CARROTS

GLAZED ORANGES

Steps:

• Using a vegetable peeler, peel strips thinly from 2 oranges; remove any white pith from strips with the point of a sharp knife; cut strips into thin julienne strips.
• With sharp knife, peel oranges removing all white pith; cut oranges horizontally into 4 slices for easy serving; reshape oranges and hold together with small wooden skewers.
• Place orange strips in small pan, cover with water, bring to boil, boil uncovered 10 minutes, drain; combine sugar and water in pan, stir over medium heat until sugar has dissolved; add orange strips to this mixture.
• Boil the syrup gently, uncovered, approximately 10 minutes or until orange strips are transparent and glazed; remove strips immediately from pan, place on lightly oiled plate.
• Return pan to heat, boil syrup uncovered further 5 minutes or until syrup turns pale golden brown; remove from heat immediately, quickly add extra water, stir for a few minutes to dissolve toffee.
• Return to heat and stir for a few minutes extra to dissolve any remaining toffee in bottom of pan; remove from heat, allow to cool a few minutes then stir in Grand Marnier and lemon juice; allow syrup to cool 5 minutes.
• Pour cooled syrup over oranges, add glazed orange strips, cover with plastic food wrap, refrigerate several hours or overnight; remove wooden skewers from oranges just before serving; serve orange topped with the orange strips and with some of liqueur syrup.
• Serve with whipped cream separately.

SIMPLE ORANGE GLAZE

Steps:

• Whisk sugar with orange zest and orange juice in a small bowl until smooth.

ORANGE GLAZE

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients and beat until combined and smooth; it should be about the consistency of thick maple syrup -- just pourable. Adjust the consistency by adding a little more liquid or a little more sugar. Use immediately or store, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

GLAZED ORANGE CARROTS

Steps:

• Trim the carrots and cook in boiling water for 4-6 mins until just tender, then drain. Melt the butter in a large frying pan, add the drained carrots, then fry over a high heat for 1 min. Pour over the orange juice and cook for a further 2-3 mins, bubbling the sauce and stirring to thoroughly coat the carrots. Finally, stir in the chopped parsley and serve.

GLAZED FRUIT

Steps:

• Insert a toothpick or wooden skewer into the base of each small fruit. Cut off one end of the grapefruit to make a flat base, then pierce 50 small holes in the grapefruit to hold the toothpicks for display. Line a baking sheet with a piece of waxed paper.
• In a 2-quart heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat, bring the sugar, the water, and the cream of tartar to a boil. Brush down the sides of the pan two times with a pastry brush dipped in warm water to prevent the sugar from crystallizing. Cook the mixture without stirring until it registers 240°F on a sugar thermometer, then add the lemon juice. Brush down the sides of the pan two more times and continue cooking the mixture until it registers 310°F on the thermometer.
• Remove the pan from the heat. Holding a small fruit by the toothpick, dip the fruit into the sugar syrup, coating it completely. Lift the fruit from the syrup, gently shake off the excess syrup, and place the fruit onto the waxed paper. Repeat with the remaining small fruit. If the sugar syrup begins to firm up while you are working, warm it over medium heat until it is liquid again. Let the glaze set up at room temperature (about 10 minutes).
• Place the toothpicks into the holes in the grapefruit. Keep the fruit at room temperature until serving time. Serve the fruit within 12 hours of preparation.

BAKED ORANGE-GLAZED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Whisk orange juice, vegetable oil, orange zest, paprika, mustard, and salt in a bowl. Arrange chicken breast halves in a baking dish; pour orange juice mixture over chicken.
• Bake chicken breasts until no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, 30 to 45 minutes, basting with orange glaze every 10 to 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

BALSAMIC-GLAZED ORANGES

Steps:

• Peel oranges removing all of the pith from the outside. Cut across grain into 1/4 inch slices, removing seeds.
• Place sugar and vinegar in a small saucepan and bring to boil. Stir constantly with a large spoon. Allow it to continue with a low boil until volume is halved (1/4 cup).
• Divide orange slices evenly between 4 plates. Drizzle with glaze.

ORANGE GLAZE FOR HAM

Steps:

• Drain the juice from the can of mandarin oranges into a microwave-safe bowl. Eat the oranges, or reserve for other uses. Stir in the brown sugar and orange juice. Cook in the microwave for 5 minutes on full power, then stir and cook for another 5 minutes. Glaze will be runny.
• Use to glaze a whole ham every 10 minutes during the last hour of cooking. Also baste a few times after you take the ham out of the oven.
