CHICKEN BREAST GRAND MARNIER



Chicken Breast Grand Marnier image

I was bored at home one day so I decided to experiment with some chicken breast. This is when I remembered a dream I had about pairing chicken and Grand Marnier (seriously I do actually dream about food). So I decided to pan fry the chicken and make a reduction for the sauce. The result was extraordinary and now I make it once every month or so. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
