Tips and Notes
– Choosing the Chicken: Opt for an organic or free-range chicken for the best flavor.
– Fresh Orange Juice: Using freshly squeezed orange juice enhances the citrus flavor significantly compared to store-bought juice.
– Additional Glaze: If you prefer extra sauce, double the glaze recipe and reserve half to serve alongside the chicken.
– Vegetable Bed: Roast the chicken on a bed of root vegetables like carrots, potatoes, and onions for a built-in side dish.
– Leftovers: Store any leftover chicken in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The meat makes for delicious sandwiches or salads the next day.
Serving Suggestions
– Side Dishes: Complement the orange-glazed chicken with sides like roasted asparagus, garlic mashed potatoes, or a fresh green salad.
– Wine Pairing: A Chardonnay or Pinot Noir pairs wonderfully with the citrus and savory notes of the dish.
