Рецепт Baked Orange Chicken Breasts
Sweet, spicy and tangy – these juicy Baked Orange Chicken Breasts are infused with tons of flavor.
The sweet smell of fresh citrus is universally the best-loved scent.
I will admit that I can obsess about certain food over and over again. I was obsessing about blood oranges when I found an abundance of them at the local market. I felt as though I wanted to hoard them all. Dropping more than I can consume into my shopping basket. This also happened with the Cara Cara oranges. Such a vibrant color of orange.
So sweet and delicious. The bowl in the center of my kitchen loaded with these two types of oranges. “Orange” you happy that I shared my obsession with you?
I treasure my quiet time and often love spending an inordinate amount of time in the kitchen. But, yes, there is always a but. I also like quick and easy recipes that does not require to much attention to detail.
I mean really, look at this dish. Simple, delicious, easy and loved.
