Made it last night. I mistakenly used frozen orange juice concentrate instead of regular orange juice. Some of my family said it was the best chicken they had ever had! I used boneless chicken breasts and served it with rice-a-roni wild rice mix. Good. good, GOOD!!!

This is one where you could keep chicken and orange juice in freezer and rest of ingredients in the pantry for an instant company special dinner. Would also work well for a large group.

Thank you sssarawolf!!!
