Since I am a working mother, the food I cook in my kitchen is always simple, wholesome and easy to make, but there's always a twist. That's the beauty of fusion food (well that's just a fancy name for "cook with whatever you have in your fridge") which can put your taste buds on a riot!
This chicken recipe is exactly the same. Ever wondered pairing up orange and chicken? That's what I got in my freezer today. So let's make something delicious with them!
Preparation time: 15-20 Minutes
Ingredients:
4 boneless chicken steaks
2 cups of orange juice (freshly squeezed)
1 cup of brown sugar
2 tablespoons of butter
A pinch of salt
A sprinkle of black pepper (You can add chili flakes/red paprika if you like your food spicy)
Other herbs of your preference (e.g. Thyme, Oregano etc.)
Instructions:
Preheat your funny bone, I mean oven, to 375°F (190°C). We don't want any cold jokes in our cooking!
In a jolly saucepan, combine the laughter-infused orange juice and mischievous brown sugar over medium heat. Stir with a wooden spoon and allow the mixture to bubble and transform into a golden caramel sauce.
While the caramel sauce is tickling your taste buds, let's prepare the chicken steaks. Sprinkle them with a pinch of salt and black pepper on both sides. Pat them gently, making sure they feel comfortable enough to share a good joke.
In a delightful skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Lay the chicken steaks in the skillet, making sure they have enough space to boogie. Sear each side for about 3-4 minutes until they turn a delightful golden color, like the punchline of a perfectly timed joke.
Once the chicken steaks have had their fun, transfer them to a baking dish and pour the laughter-infused caramel sauce over them. Make sure each steak is covered in this hilarious concoction, guaranteeing a memorable flavor experience. Feel free to add a dash of whimsical thyme for some herb-infused humor.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and let the chicken steaks bake for 5-10 minutes. This will ensure the flavors meld together.
Once the chicken steaks are cooked through they're ready to steal the show! Remove them from the oven and let them rest for a couple of minutes.
Serve the chicken steaks with some sautéed veggies and rice , generously drizzled with the orange caramel sauce.
This chicken steak in zesty orange caramel sauce is a culinary adventure that's bound to bring joy to your table. Enjoy the flavor and embrace the fun!
