Transform a store-bought rotisserie chicken into a gourmet delight with this zesty glaze recipe.
Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
Use unsalted butter to control the saltiness of the glaze.
Add the chopped shallot and minced garlic to the saucepan and sauté until fragrant and softened.
Stir constantly to prevent the garlic from burning.
Stir in the apricot preserves, lemon juice, hot sauce, and Creole seasoning. Reduce the heat to low and cook until the mixture is well combined and heated through.
Taste the glaze and adjust the seasoning if needed.
Place the rotisserie chicken on a rack in a baking dish. Brush the chicken all over with the prepared glaze.
Ensure the glaze covers the chicken evenly for consistent flavor.
Bake the chicken in a preheated oven at 350°F for 15 minutes.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is heated through.
Serve the chicken warm with your choice of sides, such as rice or vegetables.
Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley for added color and flavor.
