Orange Honey Butter Glaze Recipes

HONEY ORANGE GLAZED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients for the orange honey glaze in a small bowl. Reserve half in a small bowl to serve with the chicken. Use the rest to baste while the chicken cooks.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Line a half sheet pan with aluminum foil. Place the chicken breasts with the bone-side down on the half sheet pan. Brush with the melted butter, sprinkle with paprika, onion, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Brush with a little orange honey glaze. Insert a digital thermometer so you can check the internal temperature.
• Cook for 30 minutes, then continue to baste with orange honey glaze every 10 minutes until the chicken is done. Allow the chicken to rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with the reserved orange honey glaze. Sprinkle with fresh rosemary and thyme before serving.

HOLIDAY TURKEY WITH HONEY ORANGE GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Combine sage, salt, and thyme in a small bowl. Rub half of the sage mixture all over the turkey, then place the turkey in a large roasting pan. Set remaining sage mixture aside. Bring butter, orange juice, orange marmalade, honey, and orange sections to a boil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Reduce heat and simmer uncovered until thickened, stirring occasionally, 15 to 20 minutes. Stir in the remaining sage mixture. Brush the turkey with the glaze.
• Bake the turkey in the preheated oven for 5 hours and 30 minutes, basting every 30 minutes. Cover turkey lightly with foil and continue baking until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 30 minutes to 1 hour, occasionally brushing with the glaze. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone should read 180 degrees F (82 degrees C). Remove the turkey from the oven, cover with a doubled sheet of aluminum foil, and allow to rest in a warm area 10 to 15 minutes before slicing.

ORANGE-GLAZED TURKEY

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the salt, pepper, savory and sage. Rub 1 tablespoon of seasoning mixture in turkey cavity. Place the pears, onion and celery in turkey cavity; tie drumsticks together. Place, breast side up on a rack in a roasting pan. Combine butter and remaining seasoning mixture; brush over turkey. Bake, uncovered, at 325° for 3-1/4 to 3-1/2 hours. , Meanwhile, combine orange marmalade, orange juice and honey in a saucepan. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes or until thickened, stirring occasionally. Set aside and keep warm. When turkey begins to brown, cover lightly with a tent of foil. Bake 1 hour longer or until thermometer reads 180°, brushing occasionally with the orange glaze. Cover and let stand for 15 minutes before carving. Thicken pan juices for gravy if desired.

CHICKEN BREASTS WITH SPICY HONEY ORANGE GLAZE

• Pour honey mixture over chicken and cook, turning chicken to coat as sauce begins to thicken, about 2 min.
• Serve chicken breasts with honey-orange glaze spooned over the top.

ORANGE HONEY-BUTTER GLAZE RECIPE

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix all ingredients until creamy and spreadable like icing. Refrigerate for up to 2 weeks. Soften to a spreadable consistency before using.

HONEY CAKE WITH ORANGE GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cloves, nutmeg, and cinnamon until thoroughly mixed together. In a separate large bowl, stir together the vegetable oil, 1 cup of sugar, and honey, and beat the eggs in one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the flour mixture, alternating with the coffee in several additions. Mix in the shredded apple, if desired.
• Transfer the batter into the prepared baking dish, and sprinkle the walnuts over the top of the cake. Bake in the preheated oven until the cake springs back when lightly touched with a finger, about 1 hour. Allow the cake to cool until warm, about 15 minutes.
• In a small saucepan, melt the butter, and whisk in 2/3 cup of sugar and the orange juice until the sugar has dissolved. Bring the mixture to a boil, and remove from heat, whisking constantly. Pour the glaze over the warm cake.

PAM'S HONEY BUTTER GLAZER SAUCE

Steps:

• 1. Mix cold water and honey in a 3 to 4c microwaveable bowl. Microwave for two minutes, stirring after the first minute and again every 15 to 20 seconds until liquid is bubbling at the edges. (When you stir, it may foam up a bit, but it will return to liquid quickly with stirring.) Be careful that you do not let it go too long between stirring or it may bubble over when stirred.
• 2. Mix the cornstarch with the extra water in a small cup. Remove the bowl from the microwave and whisk in the cornstarch mixture. This will look slightly cloudy. Replace the mixture in the microwave and cook again on high for two or three - 15 second intervals, stirring again between each. The mixture should be clear and translucent at this point. It should be thickened but not "stiff". More like a glaze.
• 3. Remove the bowl from the microwave and whisk in orange juice, lemon juice, salt and vanilla. If these liquids thin it down too much, replace the mixture in the microwave and cook again on high for two or three - 15 second intervals, stirring again between each. (I did not have to do this, but if you want a thicker glaze, you might need to do it)
• 4. Whisk in cubed cold butter about a tablespoon at a time, whisking until butter has melted before adding more. Continue to whisk in butter cubes until all are used and sauce is somewhat cool. Store in fridge in a clean bottle or jar, or use immediately.
• 5. I have not tried this glaze on anything but some fresh fruit, but I think it would make an excellent pancake syrup, or plating sauce for a dessert or glaze for cakes. I would be tempted to add some more lemon and some zest and use it for glazing BBQ chicken. (I asked my husband to try a spoonful and as he tasted it, I said "How does this taste?" and before I finished the sentence, he answered "Good!")
• 6. I forgot to add: All microwaves are not created equal, so you may need to cook more or less depending on the wattage of your microwave. Just do it in small increments to get it to the right consistency. I think you can tell about how thick to make it from the pics I posted. The finished sauce was thinner than a stirred yogurt, but not "drippy". Hope this helps.
