Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/4 pounds Chicken Thigh Or tenderloins
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons Soy Sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Chili Garlic Paste
  • 1 teaspoon Rice Vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons Orange Juice
  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 3/4 cup Orange Marmalade
  • 1/4 teaspoon Ginger Paste
  • 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
  • Salt and Pepper To taste

Instructions
 

  • In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, chili garlic sauce, rice vinegar, olive oil, marmalade, ginger paste, and cornstarch.
  • Arrange the chicken pieces in an oven safe baking dish. I like to use my Le Creuset Enameled Cast-Iron 3-1/2-Quart Round Braiser for this recipe. Salt and pepper the tops of the chicken according to your personal preference.
  • Pour the marmalade mixture on top of the chicken. Bake the chicken covered at 400°F for 20 minutes. Then remove the cover, baste the chicken with the sauce, and continue to cook for an additional 20 - 30 minutes uncovered, or until the chicken is browned on top and cooked through.

Notes

  • For an extra touch of orange, add some orange zest to the sauce.
