Orange Curried Chicken

I altered this recipient to make quick chicken tenders. I floured the chicken and fried them in a little oil then poured the glaze over them and cooked until it thickened. Easy and delicious, my husband loved it.

It was very quick and easy to make, so I’m sad to say that I won’t be making this dish again. The first few bites were good, but by the end of dinner I found the orange marmalade was overpoweringly sweet.

I will definitely make this again. The ingredients were all things I had on hand. But I have to admit I used this recipe as jumping off place. I altered it because I had seen other recipes and wanted the other flavors added. So, my altered recipe may not even qualify as a “I made it” LOL. I added cardamom, ginger powder, cinnamon, honey, orange juice, and a chipotle season blend I had on hand, for a little heat. I omitted the salt. I didn’t measure anything, just poured to taste. I cut my breast from the bone and then into strips. Because the sauce was runny, I spooned some into a saucepan, added corn starch and boiled to thicken it, then poured it back into baking dish. Combined with juice that was left in dish, it made the perfect consistency for gravy. Served over rice. It was delish! And will definitely add this to my regular recipes.

Love the flavours of this recipe. Have made it many times with Chicken and Shrimp. Delicious

Whoa – GOOD – sort of followed recipe – no salt . . . I added enough water (hot) to clean out one of my almost empty marmalade jars! Added a little powdered cayenne and chopped up a slightly hydrated ancho chili, read a lot of reviews, maybe a teaspoon of corn starch – WHOA – OH – SO – GOOOOOOD! Chiles add some texture. I chopped up boneless skinless chicken breast into bite size pieces – cooked in casserole, every 10 minutes stirred so chicken would be saturated with the sauce and cooked evenly. Made a rice / quinoa half and half (quinoa -sneak something healthy on my husband )– SOOOOOO GOOOOOOD!

I used all-fruit orange marmalade, and added coconut milk to cut the sweetness. Cut up the chicken and cooked it all in a skillet. Removed the chicken when done, reduced the sauce, added the chicken back in.

Fantastic, full of flavor and super easy! I always double the sauce and eat it over rice.

This was nice, but way too bitter for me or my kids. We had to sprinkle quite a bit of sugar over it to make it tolerable. We don’t like marmalade, but I thought this might be a good way to use up some that I had. Maybe it depends on your marmalade.

Made this in the crockpot…….I advise not adding any water if you cook it in the crock and only add the amount of curry called for. Would be great with broccoli as well!

I loved this as did my guests. I found there was way too much water and I had used only about 1/2. I boiled up the sauce to reduce it a bit and served on the side so it worked out okay. I also increased the curry a bit, added a few grains of sea salt and small shake white pepper.

I also used a bit of soy sauce instead of adding salt. I used boneless, skinless chicken and overcooked it, so it was tough (my fault!). The sauce was delicious!

I made this tonight for dinner and it was a big hit with the family. Next time I make it I will not add any water at all as we found the sauce very watery and I will definitely increase the amount of curry. Thanks for posting this yummy recipe!

This recipe was so easy! Because I’m not use to cooking with curry, I was conservative and only used 1tsp instead. Next time, I will use more.

This is such a simple recipe and it’s very good. I took the advice of another review and saved a lot of money by using apricot preserves instead of orange marmalade. Served over couscous with steamed broccoli. A really easy way to spice up some chicken without a lot of spicy. I used skinless, boneless chicken tenders. Adding garlic or red pepper flakes might be a nice addition. The chicken is sweet, but I wouldn’t mind a little kick.

This was good. Wanted curry, but found out I could use the rest of my marmalade in my fridge (bought for a different recipe years ago…). I know I used more than a 1/2 c water b/c I wanted to have enough sauce. Added a Tbsp of cornstarch in hopes it would thickening when cooling from the oven. not so much. Flavor was good. a great balance between Orange and curry. added about 1/2 tsp of garlic and a few dashes of soy sauce as recommended. Was good, but not out of this world. Would make if I was in a bind, but I don’t have marmalade on hand as a staple.

This was pretty good although I will say that the Marmalade was a little strong in flavor. I had to thicken with corn starch.

I will sub a dash of soy sauce for water next time. I added a dash of ginger and also used breast tenders and served with improvised “Chinese style” white rice w/ veggies. The sauce was watery, but blended well with the rice. Quick, easy, and really flavorful!!

Excellent! Made with boneless, skinless chicken. Cooked for 30 mins, and added rosemary! The rosemary really added a lot to the sauce. It always goes well with orange.

This is excellent if you like curry. I cut down on the marmalade a bit as it was a bit sweet the first time. I also marinated chicken before cooking and it was excellent. Will make this again!

What happened here?! Anyone else have as much of a problem as I did? Tasted like chemicals more than anythings. Sorry, I know I’m one of THOSE reviewers but I won’t be attempting this one again. Boyfriend said it was the worst thing I ever made. Oh well!

This is a good idea for a recipe, but I would change several things. First, I would not use regular orange marmalade. If you’re not looking to spend a lot on the organic stuff then you’re stuck with the kind with high fructose corn syrup as the first ingredient. This makes the dish way too sweet. I would use fresh orange juice and zest instead. Also, I added soy sauce and skipped the water and salt. I also added some red pepper flakes for heat. My boyfriend also suggested cutting the chicken into smaller pieces so that more of the chicken would be covered in sauce…it would also cook faster. Overall I recommend the flavor combination!
