Orange Raspberry Chicken Recipes

ORANGE RASPBERRY CHICKEN

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium high heat.
• Add oil and heat until it ripples.
• Brown chicken on both sides until lightly browned, about 3 minutes per side.
• Remove from skillet to a plate and keep warm.
• Add shallots and garlic and sauté until soft, about 3 minutes.
• Blend remaining ingredients in a small bowl.
• Pour into skillet and mix with shallots and garlic.
• Return chicken to skillet.
• Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer 20 minutes, basting chicken occasionally with sauce.
• Remove lid, increase heat to medium and simmer an additional 5-10 minutes until sauce is reduced and slightly thickened.

ORANGE HERB ROASTED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Pour the chicken broth into a small roasting pan, and set aside.
• Loosen the skin from the breasts and thighs of the chicken. Stuff the butter pieces evenly underneath the skin of the chicken, and place into the roasting pan. Squeeze the orange halves over the chicken, and stuff the orange halves into the chicken cavity. Tie the legs together with kitchen twine. Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper to taste, then rub in the minced garlic. Drizzle the melted butter all over the chicken, then lay the herb sprigs onto the breast and around the legs.
• Cover the dish with aluminum foil, and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Uncover and baste the chicken with the pan juices. Continue cooking until the chicken is no longer pink, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh reads 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), 1 to 2 hours. Baste the chicken every 10 to 15 minutes after you uncover it. Once cooked, allow the chicken to rest out of the oven for 10 minutes before slicing.

SKILLET CHICKEN WITH RASPBERRY SAUCE

Steps:

In a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray, cook chicken over medium heat for 5-7 minutes on each side or until a thermometer reads 170°., Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine the remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil; cook until liquid is reduced to 1/2 cup. Serve with chicken.
