    Persian Chicken Breasts, Years ago, when I cooked for a caterer, we catered an affair for Frank Purdue (of chicken fame!) at the Boston Aquarium This was what he chose as one of the dishes featuring his chicken I fell in love with it!, I chose not to rate this because I only had clementines on hand and made this with brown sugar it wasn’t very good Maybe oranges would help?????, Wonderful recipe! I had to sub canned mandarin orange slices since I only had one orange Can’t wait to make it again
