A light and tangy chicken recipe, with a flavorful orange sauce. I like to cut the chicken into bite-size pieces because it makes it easier to eat (Note:Cooking time may be reduced by about 10 min. if this step is added). Very simple and inexpensive...healthy, too:)
Ingredients:
1 fryer chickens or 4 whole chicken breasts (2 1/2-3 lb.)
2 tablespoons oil
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1 sliced onion
1/3 cup frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed
1/3 cup water
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons parsley flakes
1/2 teaspoon ginger
hot, cooked white rice or hot, cooked brown rice
Directions:
1. Brown chicken on all sides in hot oil.
2. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
3. Optional step: Remove chicken from skillet, let cool, and cut into bite-size pieces, then return to skillet.
4. Arrange onion over chicken.
5. Combine OJ concentrate, water, brown sugar, parsley, and ginger.
6. Pour over chicken and onion.
7. Cover and simmer 35-40 minutes or until chicken is tender.
8. Serve over hot, cooked rice.
