Apple glazed chicken

 

This recipe is made with two ingredients, five if we count the salt, oil and black pepper. The result is a very juicy glazed chicken. If you are looking for something tasty and cheap for this Christmas this is a good choice.

INGREDIENTS (4 people):

• A whole chicken cut into 8 parts, for example, cutting the chicken in half lengthwise and from each half we make 4 transverse parts. It can also be prepared by separating the legs and wings, and then cut the rest as we want.
• A glass and a half of apple juice
• Salt
• Black pepper
• Oil

First we cut the chicken, cleaning it well. If you don't want to eat the skin, you can remove it to make it less greasy.

In a deep frying pan with a lid, pour 3 tablespoons of oil and brown the previously seasoned chicken pieces in it.

When they have browned, pour in the juice obtained from apples (do not use a packaged one unless it does not have sugar or sweeteners).

Deglaze the bottom of the pan with the juice and let it cook over medium heat for about 20 minutes, with the lid on, and turning the chicken pieces halfway through.

Once the time has elapsed, we uncover the pan and let it cook until the natural sugars in the juice thicken the broth, reducing the amount of liquid by half. It is convenient to turn the chicken often now that it is in the pan uncovered so that the glaze covers it all over.

Before serving it can be seasoned again with salt and pepper.

It is served well heated accompanied by vegetables or steamed potatoes, which is how it is best tasted.

If you don't have apple juice or apples to make it, you can use cider or even wine.
