EASY APRICOT GLAZED CHICKEN

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h50m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

One 5-to-6-pound roasting chicken, giblets removed
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, optional
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1/4 cup apricot preserves
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon cider vinegar
1 cup chicken broth

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Rinse the chicken with cool water and pat dry. Place the chicken in a roasting pan on a rack, breast side up. Sprinkle the cavity of the chicken with salt and pepper. Tuck the wing tips under the back of the chicken.
  • Combine 4 tablespoons butter, parsley if using, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Loosen the skin on the breast of the chicken by gently wriggling fingers under the skin. Rub outside of the chicken with about 1 tablespoon of the butter mixture. Rub the remaining mixture under the skin of the chicken breast. Sprinkle chicken with additional salt and pepper. Roast the chicken for 1 hour 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, melt the remaining 1 tablespoon butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant but not browned, about 2 minutes. Spoon the garlic out of the saucepan and discard. Add the apricot preserves, mustard and vinegar and cook, stirring, until warmed through and combined, about 2 minutes. Set aside to cool until ready to glaze the chicken.
  • Increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees F. Remove the chicken from the oven and brush evenly with the apricot glaze. Continue roasting until an instant-read thermometer stuck into the chicken thigh registers 160 degrees F, about 15 minutes more. Tip the chicken so the juices run into the pan. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and loosely tent with foil.
  • Pour the juices from the pan into a degreasing cup or glass measuring cup. Pour or spoon off excess fat and discard. Add the chicken broth to the roasting pan and place directly on a burner over medium heat. Add the pan drippings and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, and scraping up any browned bits, until the mixture is hot, about 2 minutes. Strain and pour into a gravy boat and season with salt and pepper. Carve the chicken and serve with the sauce.

Tips for Making the Best Apricot Glazed Chicken Tenders

Here are some tips that will help you make the best apricot glazed chicken tenders:
Use fresh ingredients

Don’t overcook the glaze
Make sure you don’t overcook the apricot glaze. Overcooking it can result in a burnt and bitter taste.
Let the chicken cool before glazing
Allow the chicken to cool for a few minutes before glazing it. This will prevent the glaze from sliding off the chicken, ensuring that it sticks well.
Brush the glaze generously
Brush the apricot glaze generously over the chicken tenders, ensuring that they are coated evenly. This will give the dish a rich and sweet flavor.
Don’t skimp on the apricot preserves
Using enough apricot preserves is key to achieving a sweet and sticky glaze. Don’t skimp on it, as it is the star ingredient of the dish.
