Ingredients

  • 8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs*
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup orange juice
  • 1/4 cup chicken stock
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Season chicken with thyme, oregano, salt and pepper, to taste; set aside.

Melt butter in a large oven-proof skillet over medium high heat. Add chicken, skin-side down, and sear both sides until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side; set aside.

Add garlic to the skillet, and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in ZICO Chilled Orange Juice Blend, chicken stock, maple syrup, honey and rosemary; season with salt and pepper, to taste.

Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until slightly thickened, about 3-5 minutes. Return chicken to the skillet.

Place into oven and roast until completely cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, about 25-30 minutes.

Serve immediately, garnished with parsley, if desired.
