Cranberry Orange Chicken: An Amazing Ultimate Recipe


  • Author: Ava Reynolds
  • Total Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients

– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries
– 1 cup orange juice
– 1/4 cup honey (or maple syrup)
– 2 tablespoons soy sauce
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1/2 teaspoon ginger powder
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– Fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)


Instructions

Creating Cranberry Orange Chicken is simple and satisfying if you follow these easy steps:

1. Prep the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and ginger powder on both sides.
2. Cook the Chicken: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear for about 5-7 minutes on each side, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken and set aside.
3. Make the Sauce: In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and pour in the orange juice. Stir in the cranberries, honey, and soy sauce. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally. Cook until the cranberries start to burst and thicken, about 5-10 minutes.
4. Combine Chicken and Sauce: Return the chicken to the skillet, spoon the sauce over the top, and let it simmer for an additional 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
5. Garnish: Once cooked, remove from heat and garnish with fresh parsley for an added touch of color and flavor.
6. Serve: Plate the chicken and drizzle some extra sauce over the top.

With these steps, you’ll have a beautiful and delicious plate of Cranberry Orange Chicken ready to impress!
