Sweet "Citrus" Chicken

My awesome friend Jen emailed me this Sweet Citrus Chicken recipe not too long ago, and I think I love her even more now. Was that even possible?

I loved how easy this was to just throw together - unbelievable. And SO GOOD!! I actually forgot to buy orange juice and was way too lazy to go out and buy it... I used apple juice instead. Delish!

This would also work awesome with turkey for a mid-year mini-Thanksgiving feast... throw some craisins in there too, and POOF! Fantastic!

Thanks for the recommendation, Jen!


Ingredients:
  • 1-2/3 cups hot water
  • 1 pkg. (6 oz.) STOVE TOP Stuffing Mix for Chicken
  • 6 small boneless skinless chicken breast halves (1-1/2 lb.), pounded to 1/2-inch thickness
  • 2/3 cup orange juice
  • 1/3 cup firmly packed brown sugar
  • 3 Tbsp. butter or margarine, melted

PREHEAT oven to 400°F. Add hot water to stuffing mix; stir just until moistened. Set aside.

PLACE chicken in 13x9-inch baking dish. Mix juice, sugar and butter until well blended; pour over chicken. Top with prepared stuffing.

BAKE 30 min. or until chicken is cooked through (170ºF).
