One way that helps me reduce stress is eating something I know is healthy because after all is said and done, I FEEL healthier. Also, when I see an opportunity to use sriracha sauce, I take it. NomNomPaleo.com has a lot of awesome recipes, but this one recently caught my eye. Can't wait to try it tonight! Nom nom nom :-P
ORANGE SRIRACHA CHICKEN
Makes 4 servings
Chicken:
- 10 chicken drumsticks (about 3½ pounds)
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt (but remember: not all kosher salts are the same: I use Diamond Crystal brand—if you’re using Morton’s kosher salt, use 1 to 1½ teaspoons instead)
Marinade:
- 1 medium yellow onion, roughly chopped
- 1 cup fresh basil leaves, packed
- ½ cup orange juice
- 4 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon tomato paste
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Orange Sriracha Sauce:
- ½ cup orange juice
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon Paleo Sriracha (hey, hotheads: you can add more, but just know that you’ll be reducing the sauce and therefore concentrating the heat)
- 1 tablespoon ghee
- 1 teaspoon coconut aminos
- 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds (optional)
- Kosher salt
Here is the link, for the instructions (they are kind of broken up, so I figured it would be easier to post the link. Plus, pictures! :)
