Orange Cranberry Glazed Chicken Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Chicken:
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Take knife and make an opening between the skin and the chicken breast, creating a pocket for each breast.
  • Place a tbsp. of butter in each pocket, and massage into the chicken to smear over the chest area.
  • Mix the spices, salt, and pepper. Rub down the chicken.
  • Place in the oven to cook for about 1 hour.
  • Melt butter, and after the chicken has cooked for about 30 minutes, brush down with the butter.
  • Continue to do so for the rest of the hour about every 10 min.
  • After the hour is up you'll want to start to baste with the glaze and reduce the heat to about 350 degrees.
  • Baste every 10-15 min. for the next 30-40min. or until chicken is fully cooked.
  • Glaze:
  • Pour the can of cranberry sauce into a microwave safe bowl and mix with the orange juice concentrate.
  • Place in the microwave for about 1-2 min. on high.
  • Once it's done warming up you'll want to mash it or use a mixer to create a sauce like texture.
  • Mix in the spices and lemon juice.
  • Feel free to alter the measurements of the spices to your likely.
  • For people who like the extra umph, try stuffing the chicken with cinnamon sticks, orange slices, whole cloves, and dried or fresh cranberries.
