Sylvia Woods Pan Fried Orange Ginger Chicken Recipes

EASY ONE PAN ORANGE GINGER CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
• Pat the chicken drumsticks dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper.
• Place the chicken drumsticks in the oiled pan and cook on all sides until golden brown. No need to worry about cooking the chicken through at this point - just get a good golden crust on it!
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the orange juice, honey, sriracha, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, soy sauce, cornstarch, sesame oil, ginger and garlic until well blended.
• When the chicken has browned on all sides, pour the sauce over the chicken evenly to coat and turn off the heat under the pan.
• Place the pan in the pre-heated oven and bake for about 25 minutes or until the sauce has reduced and thickened and the chicken is cooked through.
• Baste the chicken with the sauce once during the baking process, if desired.
• Serve with orange slices, a sprinkling of sesame seeds, and fresh parsley, if desired.
