Whiskey Orange Chipotle Chicken Thighs And Drumsticks Recipes

Steps:

• Add the onion, orange juice, ketchup, orange marmalade, apple cider vinegar, soy sauce, Dijon, five-spice, paprika, black pepper and garlic to a large resealable plastic bag. Close the bag and shake to incorporate. Add the chicken drumsticks to the bag. Reseal and marinate for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator. (Chicken can be prepped the day before and refrigerated overnight.)
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Pour the entire contents of the bag onto a foil-lined sheet tray. Bake, turning the drumsticks halfway through baking, until the chicken is cooked through, the juices run clear and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of meat (avoiding bone) registers 160 degrees F, about 25 minutes.
• Remove to a platter and let rest 5 minutes, then sprinkle with parsley and serve warm.

Steps:

• Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Transfer to a 1-1/2-qt. slow cooker. In a small bowl, combine the broth, marmalade, oil, vinegar, chipotle pepper, honey, chili powder and garlic powder; pour over chicken. Cover and cook on low for 3-4 hours or until a thermometer reads 165°., Remove chicken to a serving platter and keep warm. Place cooking juices in a small saucepan; bring to a boil. Combine cornstarch and water until smooth. Gradually stir into the pan. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Serve with chicken. Freeze option: Cool chicken mixture. Freeze in freezer containers. To use, partially thaw in refrigerator overnight. Heat through slowly in a covered skillet until a thermometer inserted in chicken reads 165°, stirring occasionally; add broth or water if necessary.
