Orange Glazed Chicken Thighs

This chicken is boneless, skinless, moist and covered in the most fabulous tasting glaze that is made with orange juice, honey and more. This is a must try chicken recipe! These delicious Orange Glazed Chicken Thighs are prepared and cooked in a cast iron skillet then finished off by baking in the oven. If you don’t have a cast iron skillet transfer the chicken to an oven safe pan or dish to bake.

Ingredients – I show minced and powdered
garlic, use whichever one you prefer.

Add the oil to a large skillet
over medium heat.

Salt and pepper one side of the chicken.

Place the chicken, seasoned side down,
into the hot skillet. Cook a few minutes
until it just starts to turn a light brown.
Salt and pepper the uncooked side.

Turn the chicken over and cook
just until it turns a light brown.

Move the chicken to the side
and stack if necessary.

Add the rest of the ingredients to the skillet.

Stir the sauce ingredients then spread
it out and place the chicken on top.
Cook until hot and turn the chicken over.

Remove the skillet from the burner and if
you didn’t use a cast iron skillet, place the
chicken and glaze into an oven safe pan or dish.
Place skillet or baking dish into a preheated 350 degree
oven for 30 minutes, turning over after 15 minutes.
Check the internal temperature and bake until
165 degrees then it’s done and ready to serve.

I am so lucky to have a husband that truly appreciates the meals I make. He will tell me if he doesn’t like something and he thanks me over and over when he does like it. I think I get my cooking passion from his enjoyment of my cooking…lol Thank you Jackie!

Thank you so much for reblogging!!!
😊
That looks delicious! Bet the glaze would go nice over rice 🙂
There really isn’t enough once it bakes. Just enough to drizzle on top of the chicken. But you are right, it would taste great on rice too. Thank you Jacquie!
I eat chicken on average 5 times/week. I love it. I love all the ways I can prepare it. This time of year, that usually means whatever marinade my Helen dreams up…half-hour or so…followed by grilling over the current flavor of charcoal on the portal of our workshop. This week? Applewood charcoal.
The only thing I’d leave out would be the honey. It’s already enough work as it is trying to keep sugar out of an American diet. But, I love how you’re teaching others to understand the look of a meal is about as important as flavorings.
Thank you and I admire you for your healthy lifestyle!
Reads like a must try. I am always looking new recipes
Me too Georgetta. These turned out so tasty.
Thanks! I have a trip to the grocery store today, will pick the ingredients. Will let you know how the recipe turns out. Also do you use any of the advertised airfryer? Curious to know what your opinion is!😊👣
Hi Georgetta! I would love to hear how you like the Orange Glazed chicken Thighs!!!!! We love our air fryer and if you click the link http://indianeskitchen.com/2020/01/29/air-fryer-cooked-spam I show a picture of ours in the post. I don’t think there is a best name brand name other than buy a big one. I have posted 7 recipes that we made in ours and they were all delicious. In my search box type air fryer and they will pop up for you to look at.
This looks very tasty.
Thank you Christy!!!
Looks great! Chicken thighs are so versatile and easy to cook with. Never tried orange glaze before. Will keep this in mind!
Thank you, this was my first time too. We went crazy over them!!!!
Another beauty here, Diane.
I think that thighs are much overlooked and they are a (relatively) cheap protein source, cheaper still if you can be bothered to butcher your own chickens!
Another one I’m going to “cut down to size” for my singleton requirements, I reckon a couple of those with some kind of rice would be just right for my tiny appetite!
Oh yes and if you cut down on the chicken and make the same amount of orange glaze you could even drizzle it over the rice since you won’t need it for all the chicken.
Good thinking, that is what I do with sweet and sour sauce when I do it.
Do you ever use fresh orange juice instead of juice from an orange? If so, how much juice do you use?
Hi Lena! You can use orange juice and 1/4 cup should be perfect. Have a great weekend!
Thank you ma’am.
You’re very welcome!
These are really delicious. My son gave us a similar recipe a while. Thighs are more juicy but this does work with chicken breasts also. Thanks!
I agree, thighs are absolutely the best! Thank you and enjoy the weekend!
cooked to perfection and looks awesome!
Thank you it was the most amazing flavor. A definite keeper that I will be making many times again!!!!
This looks tasty Diane. I’ve never had anything with an orange glaze on it, not duck either. I thought the lack of S’Mores was bad … 🙂
Hahaha you’re funny Linda! This was one of the best chicken recipes I have made except for the next one I post, it was even better if that is possible. It was a shocker to make two really good ones in a row.
Well it looked good. We used to have a lot of chicken when my mom made meals, but rarely with any kind of sauce on it. More with breading I’d say. One time my mom made chicken with a coating made with corn flakes smashed up for a breading.
That’s an oldie but goodie!
Yes, potato chips too. My mom put potato chips in chocolate chip cookies for a sweet-and-salty taste.
Looks good, I don’t think I ever added honey or orange to any of my meat recipes. Wonderful idea! 🤗
The taste was amazing and this is a new favorite recipe for us!!! Thank you Katherine!
This is a very delicious recipe!
thanks for sharing us.
You’re welcome and I hope you get a chance to try it. ❤
Great timing! I was thinking about chicken with an orange glaze/sauce the other week, but never got around to looking for a recipe. This fits the bill exactly!
Enjoy and let me know how you like it.
