Ingredients

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

2 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs or breasts or any combination of light and dark meat

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

1 teaspoon poultry seasoning

2 to 3 sprigs fresh rosemary, leaves chopped

1/3 cup orange marmalade

1/4 cup balsamic vinegar

1/2 cup chicken stock

2 scallions, whites and greens, finely chopped

4 cups baby arugula

Directions

  1. In a large pan, heat the extra-virgin olive oil over medium-high to high heat.
  2. Season the chicken liberally with salt, pepper and poultry seasoning. When the oil is hot and ripples, add the chicken and brown for 5 minutes, then turn and sprinkle with rosemary. Cook until the chicken is tender and cooked through, about 5 minutes more.
  3. In a small bowl, stir together the marmalade, vinegar and stock and pour over the chicken. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until the sauce has thickened and becomes a thin glaze. Add the scallions during the last minute of cooking time. Arrange on a serving platter and serve topped with arugula greens.

Been making this recipe for years and it’s my sons favorite!! Always requested when he comes home to visit. I’ve learned over the years to make a little slurry with cornstarch adding it towards the end to help it thicken faster while also leaving some extra sauce. Also the brand of marmalade you use does affect the amount of sweetness and orange flavor some may be looking for. We prefer not to sweet and use the Bonne Maman brand. Thank you Rachel!!
