This recipe is appreciated by most because it's so different than most. The exotic taste surprises many, and the mixture of honey, orange and spices makes it a real delight. This is the result of my many experiments.
Ingredients:
8 chicken breasts
1 red bell pepper, seeded, cut in 1/4-inch strips
1 (6 ounce) can orange juice concentrate
1/2 cup liquid honey
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 teaspoons paprika (hungarian)
1/4 teaspoon ginger (powder)
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons cold water
1 orange, zest of, cut into strips
salt
Directions:
1. Lay the red pepper strips in bottom of a 13 x 9-inch oven proof dish and deposit the breasts on top.
2. In a bowl mix orange juice, lemon juice, paprika, ginger, nutmeg, and salt; lay mixture over chicken.
3. Put dish in preheated oven at 350°F for 45-55 minutes; baste it from time to time.
4. Take out the chicken.
5. Drain it well; keep aside in a warm dish.
6. Mix corn starch and water, on stove top. Bring to a boil the juice; pour in the cornstarch little by little until you get the desire thickness (about like half and half or thicker).
7. Dress the plate with 1 breast and a few pepper strips.
8. Cover with sauce and orange zest on top.
9. This can be served with some rice on the side.
