    Chicken in Orange Cream


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    8 chicken thighs (about 2 1/2 lbs total)
    Salt and ground black pepper
    All-purpose flour
    1/4 cup butter or margarine
    1/4 cup vegetable oil
    1 clove garlic, minced
    1 1/2 tbs thinly sliced green onion
    1 1/2 tbs orange juice
    1 tsp grated orange peel
    1/2 cup dry white wine (or apple juice)
    2 tsp sugar
    1/4 tsp dry tarragon
    1/2 cup sour cream
    Orange wedges

    Recipe



    Rinse chicken and pat dry. Sprinkle on all sides with salt and pepper; dredge in flour and shake off excess. Melt butter and oil in large frying pan over medium heat. Cook chicken thighs 4 at a time, turning until well browned on all sides and meat near bone is no longer pink, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a platter and keep warm. Pour off and discard drippings, leaving browned bits in bottom of pan. Add garlic, onion, orange juice, orange peel, and wine. Increase heat to medium-high. Bring to a boil, stirring to scrape browned bits free; remove from heat. Stir sugar, tarragon, and 1 1/2 tsp flour into sour cream; then stir sour cream into wine mixture. Return to heat and cook, stirring, until sauce comes to gentle boil. Season to taste with salt and pepper; pour over chicken. Pass orange wedges to squeeze over individual portions.

    Serves 4.
