Number Of Ingredients 17

1/3 cup thawed orange juice concentrate
5 tablespoons canola oil, divided
2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 garlic cloves, minced
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (4 ounces each)
1/2 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
1 tablespoon butter
4 green onions, thinly sliced, divided
1/2 cup orange marmalade
1/2 cup orange juice
1/4 cup lemon juice
2 tablespoons honey
1 to 2 tablespoons grated orange peel
2 to 3 teaspoons grated lemon peel
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
Hot cooked rice

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine the orange juice concentrate, 4 tablespoons oil, soy sauce and garlic. Pour half of marinade into a large resealable plastic bag; add the chicken. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for 2-3 hours. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade. Discard marinade from chicken. In a large skillet, cook chicken in remaining oil until a meat thermometer reads 170°. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, saute walnuts in butter until lightly browned; remove and set aside. Set aside 1/4 cup green onions for garnish. Add remaining onions to saucepan; saute until tender. Add the next eight ingredients and reserved marinade. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 5-10 minutes or until sauce reaches desired consistency. Serve chicken with rice; top with sauce and garnish with reserved walnuts and onions. Yield: 4 servings.
