Weeknight Chicken!
Herby, citrusy, easy and delicious, this chicken is a perfect weeknight dinner!
Certainly, this will taste even better if you allow the chicken to marinade overnight, but if you don’t remember to do that, BE BRAVE and marinade as soon as you can, and let sit for an hour while you prep the sides.
I love the flavor and taste of this Orange Rosemary sauce – there is no real substitute for it, but if you would prefer, try the sauce in this Orange Rosemary Salmon recipe on the chicken
Happy, easy and delicious dinners ahead!
Orange Rosemary Chicken
Ingredients
(* indicates my preferred ingredients – see notes for alternatives)
3 tablespoons O&V Rosmarino Dipper Spice *
1 – 1½ lbs chicken cutlets or chicken breasts cut in half horizontally
3-4 tablespoons O&V Roasted Garlic Oil or Rosemary EVOO *
5-6 tablespoons O&V Orange Rosemary Sauce *
Fresh rosemary and sliced navel oranges for garnish
Preparation
Cut regular chicken breasts in half horizontally or use thinner cut chicken cutlets for this recipe.
In a bowl, marinade the chicken with 1 tablespoon of oil and the dipper spice mix for a minimum of 1 hour and up to overnight.
Heat remaining oil in a skillet and sauté the chicken for 4 minutes on each side until cooked through (use a meat thermometer to check that it is at 165F).
Remove from the heat and drizzle with the Orange Rosemary Sauce. Serve garnished with fresh rosemary and slices of navel oranges to squeeze over.
Serves 4
Active time 18 minutes Total Time: 80 minutes includes marinading time
Notes
* The Rosemary EVOO or Roasted Garlic oil add a nice additional layer of taste, enhancing the flavors of the Rosmarino Dipper Spice Blend. You can use an Unflavored EVOO but the flavor intensity will change from this recipe. You can substitute the dipper blend for your favorite spices, although that will certainly change the taste of this dish.
