Glazed Honey Orange Chicken Breasts



Oh my goodness, THIS CHICKEN ROCKS! I was so shocked at how good this was. To say I was a bit apprehensive when I made this dish doesn't cover it, but it will be a regular in the Blackburn house now. This dish was incredibly simple to make...although it did take some prep. The juices that came off this chicken partnered perfectly with couscous, as well as my recipe for Oven Roasted Cauliflower.I can't remember where I found this recipe, but a big THANK YOU to the original poster of it!

So, here we go:

Ingredients:

4 skin on/bone in chicken breasts, salt and peppered
1 T. vegetable oil
1/2 cup frozen orange juice concentrate thawed
4 T. honey

Directions:

1) Preheat oven to 375 degrees

2) Heat oil in pan and sear chicken skin side only for 5 minutes. Place in a 9X13 pan liberally sprayed with cooking spray.

3) While the chicken is cooking, make the glaze by placing the orange juice and honey in a small pan. Boil for 3 minutes, stirring constantly and then remove from heat.

4) Pour glaze over chicken and turn each piece of chicken in the glaze. Place in oven and bake for one hour and 15 minutes, skin side up and brushing with glaze every 15 minutes. Internal temperature should be 170 degrees. Let sit for 10 minutes before serving.
