Orange Basil Chicken
Orange Basil Chicken
This chicken is delicious served with a little of the orange
sauce, along with rice and your favorite vegetables.
INGREDIENTS:
4 boneless chicken breast halves, skin removed
3/4 cup chicken broth
juice and zest of 2 oranges
2 tablespoons vinegar
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 to 6 medium basil leaves, chopped, or about 1 teaspoon dried
leaf basil
1 tablespoon freshly minced parsley, or 1 teaspoon dried parsley
flakes
4 medium cloves garlic, crushed and minced
1/8 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
dash onion powder
PREPARATION:
Wash chicken breast halves; pat dry. Place the halves between
sheets of plastic wrap and pound lightly to flatten. Combine
remaining ingredients in a food storage bag; add the chicken
pieces. Seal the bag and refrigerate for 2 to 4 hours.
Grill or broil the chicken for 3 to 5 minutes on each side,
until cooked through.
Cooking time depends on the thickness of the chicken breasts. In
a saucepan, simmer the remaining marinade for 3 to 4 minutes,
until slightly reduced.
Serve chicken with a little of the sauce or a fruit salsa, if
desired.
Serves 4.
