Are you stuck in a chicken rut? Okay, that sounds a little odd, but you know what I mean. Sometimes we find ourselves making the same chicken recipes over and over and over again. And they’re fine, even delicious, maybe even a family favorite (like my maple mustard chicken!). But still. Aren’t we all on the lookout for our new favorite, a new way to serve chicken? Me. Too.
Lucky for you, today’s recipe is an amazing new chicken recipe. It’s super easy, which means you can make it any ol’ weekday for dinner, but it’s also really easy and delicious, which means you can totally make this for a friday night dinner too! Orange Teriyaki Chicken is kind of a “Orange beef” meets “teriyaki chicken” in one easy dish that’s bound to become a new family favorite. Oh, and that built in side dish? You’re welcome.

- 2 onions, cut in half rings
- 2 sweet potatoes, cut in small chunks
- 1 orange, cut in half slices
- 8 pieces of chicken on the bone, tops or bottoms both work
- ½ cup teriyaki sauce
- ½ cup orange juice
- 2 Tablespoons rice vinegar
- ½ teaspoon ground ginger
- Preheat oven to 350.
- Place onions, orange slices and sweet potatoes on the bottom of a roasting pan. Place chicken pieces on top. Set aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk together all sauce ingredients until smooth. Pour sauce over the chicken. Cover the pan tightly and bake at 350 for an hour.
- Raise the oven temperature to 450 and uncover the pan.
- Baste the chicken with the juices on the bottom of the pan, then bake uncovered for an additional 20 minutes.
- For best results, remove chicken from the pan and return to the oven for 20 minutes, to get the sweet potatoes crispy.
- Plan Ahead:
- This chicken can be frozen in an airtight container.

Looks great! Can’t wait to make this chicken!
Great recipe! I did make my own teriyaki sauce though. (Equal amounts of brown sugar and soya sauce, lots of minced garlic and fresh minced ginger) Let it sit in the fridge all afternoon, and then BBQed it. Served with rice pilaf. Very tasty! 🙂

Are the sweet potatoes and orange to be peeled or not?
Made this for shabbat last week. Definitely a very strong orange flavor, but we liked it. I did not cook the potatoes longer than the chicken but they were perfectly soft when they came out of the oven.
