  1. DH raved about this one! I didnt use any orange rind but did everything else exactly. Very good.
     
  2. Fantastically easy, chicken stayed really moist, great flavor. As in another review, I also used orange juice instead of water. Next time though, I might add a tad of lemon juice just to cut through the sweetness of the glaze.
     
  3. Outstanding recipe....easy to make. Substituted orange juice for the water..Will make it again.
     
  4. Easy to make and good, too. I will definitely make again.
     
  5. This one is a keeper. I made this last night and we loved the flavor. The only thing I changed was the breadcrumbs. All I had was Japanese breadcrumbs, so I used those. Great recipe.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I live near Rochester NY with my husband and our 18-year-old cat, Fluffy. It's actually Fluffy's house, but he allows us to live here as long as we pamper him and feed him generously. Our daughter, Kree, whom some of you know from Zaar, is also living with us again while she begins a new business venture in real estate. She's the one who got me hooked on Zaar and taught me to try new recipes rather than stay in the cooking rut I was in. In my free time I like to take long rides or sit by the water, both of which I find very relaxing. I also like to do counted cross-stitch and read. I dabble in photography, always looking for that elusive 'perfect' shot. I did more cooking before I started working full-time, and plan to again when I retire (still years away, but dreaming).
