CHICKEN BREASTS WITH SPICY HONEY ORANGE GLAZE

Steps:

• In small bowl, combine honey with juice concentrate, orange zest, garlic, salt and red pepper flakes.
• Rinse chicken with cold water and pat dry. Season lightly with salt.
• In large non-stick skillet, heat margarine and oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook about 4 minutes, until seared.

SPICY HONEY ORANGE CHICKEN BREASTS WITH MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Clean and dry chicken breasts. Pound them to an even thickness.
• Put flour on a plate. Sprinkle 1/2 the chili powder and no-salt lemon pepper on flour. Dredge the first chicken breast so that both sides are covered in flour and spice. Repeat process for the second chicken breast.
• Before you start the chicken, put the rice in the water and heat. When the water boils, cover and reduce heat to low simmer. Simmer for 20 minutes and then let stand until chicken is done.
• Heat garlic and olive oil in a pan at medium-high heat. Cook chicken breasts for about 3-4 minutes on each side - until they are about 1/2 cooked.
• Remove chicken from the pan and keep warm (I put them in the oven at 170 degrees).
• Deglaze the pan with the wine and reduce by half (for those of you who don't know what this means - as I didn't - it means pour the wine in the hot pan and let it simmer/ boil until only half of it is left and all of the chicken fat, etc. is dissolved into the wine).
• Add the orange juice, honey and red pepper flakes. Allow it to just boil.
• Place the chicken back in the pan and add the mushrooms. Cook at medium-low heat for about 10 - 12 minutes (until chicken is cooked through). Pour sauce over chicken occasionally.
• Serve over rice.

CRISPY CHICKEN BREASTS WITH SPICY HONEY

Steps:

• For the chicken: Place a heavy-bottomed Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add your frying oil and heat to 375 degrees F.
• In a large bowl or a gallon-sized resealable plastic bag, mix together the cornstarch, baking powder, salt and your favorite seasonings. Add your chicken pieces to the flour mixture. Coat the chicken well, but be sure to shake off any excess flour. At this point the chicken can be battered immediately, or it can sit, refrigerated, for 2 hours or overnight, coated in the dry dredge.
• In a separate large bowl, whisk together all of the dry batter ingredients, then add all of the wet ingredients, stirring to smooth out any lumps.
• Dredge the cornstarch-coated cutlets in the batter, letting any excess drip off and lay them in the oil. Add a few pieces at a time so the temperature of the oil doesn't drop, and fry until golden brown on both sides, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined tray.
• For the spicy honey: Whisk together the honey and Sriracha or chiles in a bowl. If using chiles, allow the heat to infuse for at least 30 minutes.
• To serve, drizzle the chicken with your Spicy Honey and serve with any extra Spicy Honey on the side.

• Pour honey mixture over chicken and cook, stirring to coat all chicken pieces with spicy honey-orange glaze. Sprinkle with parsley and green onion.
• Tip: As stated above, you can leave the chicken breasts whole. Pour the glaze over chicken that has been cooked through, turning chicken to coat as sauce begins to thicken, about 2 minutes. Serve chicken breasts with honey-orange glaze spooned over the top. Garnish with parsley and green onions.
