SKILLET ORANGE CHICKEN WITH CARROTS



Skillet Orange Chicken With Carrots image

From a book about cooking for young children, this has been a staple in our house since the kids were toddlers, and my youngest still asks for it at least once a month! Only 4 ingredients!!!!

Provided by muffin-maker

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 chicken thighs, skin removed but bone in tastes best
2 carrots, peeled and sliced
1/2 cup orange juice
1 -2 tablespoon soy sauce

Steps:

  • Add chicken to the skillet, add sliced carrots, mix orange juice and soy sauce together and pour over the chicken. Place on stove and cover; bring to boil, reduce heat and simmer for about 15 minutes, or until chicken is tender. Can use boneless, skinless breasts, but the sauce isn't as flavorful. I also double the amounts of liquid, as I like to have extra sauce.

  • To a medium bowl or large measuring cup, add the orange zest, orange juice, orange marmalade, honey, 2 tablespoons olive oil, apple cider vinegar, cornstarch, ginger, salt, pepper, optional cayenne, and whisk to combine; set sauce aside.
  • To a large skillet, add 1 tablespoon olive oil, add chicken and season with salt and pepper to taste, and cook over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes, flipping intermittently so all sides cook evenly. Cooking time will vary based on thickness of chicken breasts and sizes of pieces. Chicken should be about 90% cooked through.
  • Add the vegetables and allow sauce to bubble at a medium-fast boil for about 3 to 4 minutes, or until sauce has reduced some, chicken is cooked through, and vegetables are crisp-tender. Stir intermittently throughout. If you prefer crisp-tender vegetables (not mushy) turn off the heat sooner rather than later because they will continue to cook from the carryover heat from the sauce and pan. 3 minutes is usually I need but preferences vary.
