Posted by : Karen Selwyn

1/4 cup frozen orange juice concentrate 
1 tablespoon lemon juice 
3 tablespoons honey, divided 
1/2 teaspoon grated orange peel 
1/2 teaspoon ginger 
4 skinless, boned chicken breasts 
1/4 cup orange marmalade 
Orange slices for garnish 
vegetable or olive oil for cooking

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Prepare a baking dish by spraying with oil.

Lightly spray a saute pan with oil. Saute chicken breasts on all sides. 

While sauteeing, combine orange juice concentrate, lemon juice, 2
tablespoons honey, orange peel and ginger in the prepared baking dish.
Add chicken pieces, turning to coat all sides. Let chicken marinate for
10 minutes. 

Bake chicken uncovered for 8 minutes, then baste with pan juices. Bake
an additional 8 minutes and baste again. 

Mix together marmalade and remaining 1 tablespoon honey. Use the mixture
to glaze chicken breasts. Continue to bake 8 to 10 minutes or until
done. 

Transfer chicken to serving plate. Turn up heat and reduce pan juices
until thickened and pour over chicken.

Garnish with orange slices.
