Baked Orange-Glazed Chicken

Baked Orange-Glazed Chicken

One of my favorite recipes! The combination of paprika and mustard powder really offsets the sweetness of the orange juice. I tend to eyeball when cooking, so if you cook more breasts or use a large pan, make extra sauce to baste with. I’ll frequently use extra glaze when baking just so there’s plenty to pour over rice once it’s done!

Ingredients

  • ½ cup orange juice
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon grated orange zest
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon ground mustard
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves

Directions

Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2
Whisk orange juice, vegetable oil, orange zest, paprika, mustard, and salt in a bowl. Arrange chicken breast halves in a baking dish; pour orange juice mixture over chicken.

Step 3
Bake chicken breasts until no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, 30 to 45 minutes, basting with orange glaze every 10 to 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
