1 1/2 cups milk |
1/4 cup orange marmalade |
1/2 teaspoon orange zest |
1/4 cup orange juice |
salt and pepper |
Directions:
1. Roll chicken breasts in flour,then dip in beaten egg, then roll in ground almonds.
2. Melt a small amount of butter in large frypan. Saute coated chicken breasts in batches until golden and cooked through, adding more butter to pan as needed. Set aside and keep chicken warm.
