Recipe: Grilled Orange Chicken

Grilled Orange Chicken

 4 boneless, skinless, chicken breasts
1/4 cup orange juice
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 cloves garlic, minced

In large resealable plastic bag, place chicken.  In small bowl, combine remaining ingredients.  Mix well.  Add to bag with chicken.  Seal bag.  Toss gently to coat chicken.  Refrigerate 3 to 12 hours, turning bag over often.  Discard marinade.  Grill on medium heat 15 minutes or until no longer pink in the center.  Makes 4 servings.

This is one of my go to recipes when I know I am going to only have a short amount of time to cook.  And this week is one of those weeks!  I have been helping our Passion Play Ministries International team going to India, prepare for the trip.  I was going to be a part of this trip, but the dates got pushed back, and if I went I would miss my son's birthday.  I love to travel, but I love my son, Tyler, more. 


I will be drawing a name from my followers to win a copy of my cookbook, MY KIND OF COOKING, on August 6th.  If your name is drawn and you have a blog, I will mention your blog address on my "Fast Food Friday's" radio show on the The PCL Radio Network, and then post your blog address on my blog.

  5. Another great recipe of yours Linda! Love the citrus touch with chicken!

    It sounds like you've been really busy and too bad that you will not be going to India. But, you definitely have your priorities straight, nothing's more important than a sons' birthday. I know since I have 2 of my own! ;)

    Thanks for the nod and have a great weekend and find time for relaxing!

  44. Linda, I love chicken in citrus flavor...looks fabulous!

  45. I love the soy and orange you used. They both bring to mind delicious. Chicken is a great vehicle for flavor. I find you can use so many spices and herbs with it.

    I love this recipe and plan to make it. Thanks.

  47. Hi Linda, you're such a passionate & creative woman. Creating a cookbook isn't an easy task, though it looks simple. Easy cooking recipes are the home chef favourites & yours should suite us perfectly. Looking forward for more new cookbooks from you. Have a wonderful day.
    Cheers, Kristy
