I was pleasantly surprised when I made this the first time and this recipe has made it into my favorites book. The flavor the orange peel adds is wonderful. For those on a gluten free diet this is a great choice for dinner! Ingredients:

1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |

2. In small bowl mix ginger, nutmeg, and pepper.
3. Sprinkle on both sides of chicken breasts and place in baking dish.
