Marmalade Chicken

Categories: Gluten-Free

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
• 1/2 tablespoons red-wine vinegar
• 1/2 tablespoons orange marmalade
• 1/4 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1/4 teaspoon cornstarch
• 1/4 pound chicken tenders, (see Note)
• 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
• 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
• 1 small shallots, minced
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated orange zest

Directions

1. Whisk broth, vinegar, marmalade, mustard and cornstarch in a medium bowl.

2. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Heat 4 teaspoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.

3. Add the remaining 2 teaspoons oil and shallots to the pan and cook, stirring often, until beginning to brown, about 30 seconds. Whisk the broth mixture and add it to the pan. Bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer; cook until the sauce is slightly reduced and thickened, 30 seconds to 2 minutes. Add the chicken; return to a simmer. Cook, turning once, until the chicken is heated through, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat and stir in orange zest.
