Directions
Honeyed Citrus Chicken, I made this last night and it was outstanding! I originally tried the recipe b/c I only had an hour to cook a whole chicken, and since the recipe calls for the whole chicken to be pressed flat, it cooks in under an hour Dont forgo the sauce! It really made the chicken into a gourmet meal! used olives stuffed with almonds since it did not specify what kind of stuffed olives I found the recipe in Tom Bridges Whats Cooking Chicken cookbook Serve with salad greens and new potatoes for a great meal You can use fat-free ingredients as well for a fat-free recipe according to the author Also the recipe calls for it to marinate for 4 hours and I marinated it overnight , Really great, different whole chicken recipe I left mine whole as it was still partially frozen when I popped it in the marinade for four hours And I stuffed one of the oranges inside the cavity I had a small bird, so 50 minutes was great, although the skin charred so next time I think I’ll baste every 15 minutes or so I also used greek yogurt for the sauce and regular pimento-stuffed green olives It made waaaay too much sauce for the three of us, so next time i’ll have it at least I made mashed white/sweet potatoes and peas on the side Delicious, thank you!
