Citrus-Spiced Roast Chicken image

I am the designated Thanksgiving host in my family because of my chipotle citrus roast turkey. Even finicky eaters love it. That's why I use the same recipe for chicken, so we can enjoy the delicious flavors year-round. -Robin Haas, Cranston, Rhode Island

I accidentally used too much salt and the chicken was a little too salty. Next time I'll be more careful with the measurements.

I'm not a fan of spicy food, so I omitted the chili powder. The chicken was still flavorful and delicious.

I served this dish with a side of roasted potatoes and it was a perfect meal. The chicken was moist and flavorful, and the potatoes were crispy and delicious.

I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts and they cooked in about half the time. The sauce was still delicious, though.

I'm allergic to oranges, so I used grapefruit zest instead. It worked really well and I couldn't even tell the difference.

I substituted lemon zest for the orange zest and it was still delicious! I also added a few cloves of garlic to the sauce and it gave it a great flavor.

I followed this recipe exactly and my chicken turned out dry and overcooked. I'm not sure what went wrong.
