I am sorry but this did not go over very well in our house. It is very high in saturated fat - something I can overlook if the taste is up to par. I followed the recipe exactly with the exception of using boneless skinless chicken breasts as we don't eat skin-on chicken. It was too orangey for our tastes and the orange overpowered almost every other flavour, especially the dill which is a subtle flavour at the best of times. If I ever made this again I would cut out all of the orange or just put in a small amount of peel. Made for PAC Spring 2008.
