Roast Chicken With Maple Soy Glaze Recipes

ROAST CHICKEN WITH MAPLE BUTTER AND ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Pat the chicken dry and season it well with salt and pepper, both inside and out. Place the chicken breast-side up in a 10-inch cast-iron or ovenproof skillet and stuff the rosemary sprigs into the bird's cavity.
• In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium-low heat. Add the chopped rosemary and the maple syrup, and cook together until the rosemary is fragrant and the mixture has thickened slightly, about 1 to 2 minutes. Spoon all of the mixture over the chicken, making sure it is evenly covered. A decent amount will end up on the bottom of the pan, and that's O.K.
• Roast the chicken, basting with the pan juices every 15 to 20 minutes or so, until the chicken is glossy and golden brown and registers 165 degrees with an instant thermometer in the thickest part of the thigh, about 55 to 60 minutes. Remove from the oven and baste an additional time, if desired. Allow the chicken to rest for 10 minutes before carving. Whisk remaining juice and pass at the table.

ROAST CHICKEN WITH MAPLE-SOY GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Whisk maple syrup, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and hot pepper sauce in small bowl for glaze. Simmer Sherry in small saucepan until reduced to 1/2 cup, about 3 minutes.
• Run hands under chicken skin to loosen; rub most of butter under skin over breast and thighs. Rub remaining butter over outside of chicken. Sprinkle cavity with salt and pepper. Place chicken in roasting pan. Squeeze some juice from each orange piece over chicken. Stuff cavity with orange pieces, ginger, and garlic. Tuck wing tips under. Pour Sherry over chicken.
• Roast chicken 20 minutes. Add 1/4 cup water to pan. Roast 15 minutes longer. Brush chicken with glaze. Roast chicken until thermometer inserted into thickest part of thigh registers 170°F, brushing chicken with glaze every 10 minutes, about 40 minutes longer. Tilt chicken to allow juices from cavity to run into roasting pan. Transfer chicken to platter. Let stand 10 minutes (internal temperature will rise).
• Spoon fat from surface of pan juices. Add any remaining glaze to pan juices. Place roasting pan over 2 burners; bring sauce to boil. Serve sauce alongside chicken.

MAPLE-GLAZED CHICKEN BREASTS

Steps:

• Whisk syrup, soy sauce, lemon juice, garlic, ginger and pepper in a small, shallow dish. Add chicken and turn to coat with the marinade; cover and refrigerate for 2 hours, turning once.
• Coat an indoor grill pan with cooking spray and heat over medium heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade (reserving the marinade) and cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast registers 165 degrees F, 3 to 5 minutes per side.
• Meanwhile, pour the reserved marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook until reduced by about half, about 4 minutes. Liberally baste the chicken with the reduced sauce and serve.

MAPLE GLAZED CHICKEN WITH ROASTED COUNTRY VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• For the vegetables: In a small bowl, whisk together the seasoning, mustard, oil and salt and pepper, to taste. Toss with the vegetables and spread in a layer on the bottom of a roasting pan.
• For the chicken: Season the chicken with the chicken seasoning. Place the chicken on the vegetables in the roasting pan. Roast until golden and an instant-read thermometer registers 150 degrees F when inserted in the thickest part of the thigh, 50 minutes to 1 hour.
• For the glaze: While the chicken is roasting, whisk together all the ingredients for the glaze in a pot over medium-high heat. Bring to a simmer and cook until thickened slightly. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• When the chicken is nearly cooked through, completely coat the outside with the glaze using a pastry brush. Pour any remaining glaze over the vegetables. Roast until an instant-read thermometer registers 175 degrees F when inserted in the thickest part of the thigh, an additional 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the chicken from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes before serving.

MAPLE SOY GLAZED CHICKEN THIGHS

Steps:

• Generously season chicken thighs with salt.
• Combine maple syrup, soy, hoisin, and apple cider vinegar in a small bowl or pyrek with pour spout and whisk with fork. Set aside.
• Heat olive oil in large skillet on medium high heat. Turn skillet so it's well oiled. Add chicken, smooth (or what would be skin) side up, to sear.
• Cook for 2-3 minutes before adding sauce and then flip chicken, smooth side down.
• Keep heat at medium-high and let sauce boil, cooking down. Cook for another 2-3 minutes before flipping to smooth side down.
• Keep cooking the glaze and chicken until most of the liquid has cooked off. Keep the chicken smooth side down so that the sauce carmalizes to the chicken.
• After another about 10 more minutres of cooking, or until the glaze has mostly cooked off and chicken has reached 165 degrees, remove from heat and serve immediately.
