Directions Braised Orange Chicken
Directions
-
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, cook chicken thighs in the hot oil until browned, about 5 minutes per side. Remove chicken thighs and set aside.
Cook and stir onion in the same skillet until softened, about 5 minutes.
Stir in garlic, cook and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Stir in tomatoes, orange juice, orange liqueur, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes until thoroughly combined.
Return chicken thighs to the skillet, cover, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until chicken is tender and no longer pink inside, 25 to 30 minutes.
