  1. I am always on the lookout for OAMC recipes. This was well-liked in my house. I cooked mine for one hour at 350, basting frequently. Very good. Thanks.
     
  2. It is always a challenge to find a meat dish that my oldest duaghter will eat without complaint and this recipe was a winner for her. She even had three helpings! I left out the red pepper flakes but made everything else as directed. Unfortunately, the rest of the family didn't really care for the flavour of the glaze. Oh well, you can't please everyone!
     
  3. Not the best orange-glazed chicken, the flavor could be better. The glaze was quite runny, I added extra cornstarch to it to thicken it nicely. We also used boneless skinless chicken breasts and just poured the glaze on before baking, which worked nicely.

I live in Las Vegas. I was lucky enough to run into Recipezaar around Nov. 2000 and got hooked quickly. I am a cookbook collector and have been collecting recipes for as long as I can remember. My DH had to build in shelves for all my cookbooks! I like to dabble with OAMC and for a few years hosted the Budget/OAMC forum with some great people over there. Even though I don't work in the forum any longer I've set up a lot of cookbooks for the purpose of OAMC and stretching food that might be helpful. Please feel free to check them out! I go on food jags and cooking jags! Please come say hi to me and chat on facebook. I currently host a blog for saving money through finding deals and coupons if you are interested. Most of the time I try to cook and have a good dinner on the table but I'll be honest enough to say there is still fast food occasionally in the budget! I have had such wonderful support here whenever I need it. Thank you all for being here! Just a quick note on how I rate recipes: ? 5 stars - This recipe is perfect. (My DH is truly a critic and doesn't give 5's unless it's amazing) I would recommend it to others and would definitely make again. ? 4 stars - This recipe was good but I would change something in it next time. ? 3 stars - This is a recipe I would not make again but it was OK ? 2 stars - This recipe I would not make again and we didn't like it at all ? 1 star - This recipes did not work out/taste was unappealing and wouldn't make again
