This is a recipe for spicy citrus chicken that I picked up at a Sam's Club demonstration. It is VERY delicious. The original recipe did not have the juice of one orange, but I love the added flavor (sometimes the citrus spices aren't enough). Also, I suggest kicking up the hot sauce to a full cup for added flavor! (Do NOT use a Louisiana style hot sauce, only Frank's Red Hot or similar, like Krystals) Ingredients:
2 lbs chicken breasts |
3 tablespoons citrus zest (use citrus grill spice, rz wouldn't let me put that in) |
1/4 cup olive oil |
3/4 cup frank's red hot sauce |
3/4 cup water |
1 1/2 tablespoons hiden valley ranch dressing mix (dry powder mix) |
1 orange, juice of |
salt & pepper |
Directions:
1. Cut 2 lbs. chicken breast into cubes.
2. Mix 3 tablespoons citrus grill spice, salt and pepper to taste and sprinkle on chicken.
3. Add 1/4 cup olive oil to hot saute pan and brown chicken on all sides.
4. Mix 3/4 (or 1) cup hot sauce, 3/4 cup water, and 1.5 Tbsp ranch mix together and add to pan.
5. Reduce heat and let simmer 8-10 minutes until sauce is desired consistency and chicken is cooked.
6. Add juice of one orange anytime during simmering, the later the more fruity it'll be.
