Orange And Cumin Braised Chicken Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Season the chicken with salt and pepper. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil until hot. Add the chicken and cook until browned but not cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to a plate; set aside.
  • Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, if necessary. Add the garlic, onion and cumin, and cook stirring constantly for 1 minute.
  • Add the orange and lemon juices and the broth and stir to combine. Return the chicken to the skillet and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover and simmer gently, turning the chicken occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through, about 25 minutes.
  • Transfer the chicken to a platter; cover to keep warm.
  • Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning as needed. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute or until slightly reduced. Spoon the sauce over the chicken and serve.
  • The recipe posted on washingtonpost.com said adding green olives to the sauce was optional. I chose not to do that, but added fresh cilantro to the sauce instead. This would be nice served over rice because of the tasty sauce, however I ate the chicken on its own with a side of sauteed veggies.
