Orange Rosemary Vinegar Recipes

ORANGE-ROSEMARY VINEGAR

Steps:

• Cook vinegar in saucepan until it reaches 190°F. Meanwhile, rinse rosemary, then orange. Cut orange lengthwise in half, then slice crosswise. Place rosemary, then oranges evenly in 3 warm sterilized pint-size jars.
• Pour vinegar into jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of rims; cover with lids.
• Let stand in cool dark place 3 to 4 days.
• Pour vinegar mixture through cheesecloth-lined fine-mesh strainer into sterilized decorative bottles. Discard strained solids. Cover bottles with lids. Let stand at room temperature up to 1 month before using as desired.

ROSEMARY-INFUSED VINEGAR

Steps:

• Pour the rice vinegar through a funnel into a 20-ounce bottle. Gently add the rosemary, orange zest and garlic cloves to the bottle until completely submerged. Add a tight-fitting spout with a rubber stopper. You can use the vinegar right away or refrigerate it for up to 1 month to allow the flavors to marry and infuse the vinegar. The longer the vinegar sits, the more the flavors will infuse.

CHICKEN IN BALSAMIC, ORANGE & ROSEMARY SAUCE

Steps:

• Put the chicken between pieces of cling film and flatten slightly by bashing with a pan. Unwrap and sprinkle on both sides with pepper. Heat the oil in a pan over a medium heat, then fry the chicken for 5 minutes, turning halfway through.
• Pour 2 tbsp vinegar over the chicken, add the orange juice and stock and sprinkle with the rosemary and salt. Bring to the boil, lower the heat and bubble gently for 5 minutes until tender, spooning with the sauce frequently and turning chicken halfway through.
• Stir in the sugar, butter and rest of the vinegar, then sizzle for a few minutes until reduced and glossy.
• Put the chicken in a serving dish, spoon the sauce over and garnish with orange and rosemary. Serve with rice and a crisp green salad.

BURNT ORANGES WITH ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Place oranges cut-side up on a plate and sprinkle rosemary on top, pressing it into oranges so it adheres. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup sugar.
• On a grill or stovetop, put a 12-inch cast iron skillet over medium heat until a drop of water sizzles on surface. Spread remaining 1/4 cup sugar in skillet and when it starts to caramelize place oranges, cut-side down, on sugar. Let cook for 3 to 4 minutes, not moving oranges, so cut side burns nicely and oranges soften.
• To serve, place 2 orange halves in bowl with 1/4 cup Greek yogurt, and drizzle with burnt sugar juices from skillet.
