Healthy and easy. The combination of orange and garlic is surprisingly umami.
Ingredients
4 pieces chicken (skinless, boneless chicken breast)
1 orange (the zest from the orange and 4 slices)
1⁄4 cup orange juice
2 tablespoons parsley (fresh leaves, chopped)
1⁄2 teaspoon oregano (dried)
1 clove garlic (peeled and crushed)
1 tablespoon cooking oil (best olive oil)
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 325°F.
- In a large bowl mix the orange juice, orange zest, parsley, oregano and garlic. Add a little salt and pepper if desired.
- Place the chicken breasts in a non-stick baking pan and make 3 to 4 slashes on the top of each breast.
- Pour the marinade over the top and then top each breast with an orange slice.
- Cook approximately 20 to 30 minutes or until cooked through.
- Discard orange slices and serve.
