Directions
Orange-Molasses Glazed Chicken, I adopted this recipe from the RecipeZaar account I was blown away at how flavourful this dish was Be careful not to actually burn it though as the burnt molasses taste will permeate the entire dish 😉 Trust me on that one! —- Original Chef’s notes: This simple citrus glaze has a hint of sweetness, but also takes on a bit of smoky flavor from the molasses and red wine vinegar The chicken turns a beautiful mahogany color, and is so delicious From Everyday Food’s January 2004 issue , I agree completely with all said by Quest4ZBest and Jenn from New Orleans This looks better than it turns out, but pouring the pan juices over everything hot on your plate definitely helps! For all that effort to juice the oranges (even with a machine), I recommend drinking the juice and using another chicken recipe , I was excited to try this recipe but was a little disappointed! It was good but not something I’d want to make on a regular basis I was hoping for something with more of an orange flavor – the molasses was more prominant than I would have liked I didn’t mind boiling down the sauce, but it did take over 15 minutes on medium/high (just for others to be aware of) I served over white rice
