I have to say, this recipe is ALL about the gravy. The chicken is nothing fancy but the gravy is just delish. I kept reading recipes that said the same thing, "the chicken doesn't absorb the marinade" which is entirely true, BUT when you use the marinade and cook it down, it renders a lovely orange rosemary gravy that is outstanding and just amazing when poured over the chicken. I hope you all enjoy!
Orange Rosemary Chicken
1lb boneless skinless chicken breast
11/2 cups of Orange Juice
Zest of 2 Oranges
1/4 cup EVOO
2 chopped fresh chives
3tbsp of chopped fresh rosemary
1tsp. salt
1tsp. pepper
garlic salt OR meat seasoning
In a large bowl mix orange juice, zest of 1 orange, EVOO, chives, rosemary, salt and pepper. Lightly season both sides of the chicken with your choice of garlic salt or meat seasoning. Place the pieces of chicken in the bowl of marinade and cover for at least 4hrs.
To cook, use a griddle pan lightly covered in EVOO on medium heat. Place pieces of chicken on the griddle, drizzle a spoonful of marinade on each one. Cook covered on each side for approx 4-6 mins or until fully cooked through when juices are clear.
In a separate saucepan on medium heat, bring the leftover marinade and zest of 1 orange to a simmer for approx. 10 mins or until it thickens up. Once chicken is ready to be served, pour spoonful or two of marinade aka gravy on each piece of chicken.
Sliced n' Diced Lazy Potatoes
3 medium sized potatoes (or 1 potato per person)
1/4 cup of VERY thinly sliced onion
1 medium clove of garlic chopped
3tbsp EVOO
1tsp pepper
1tsp garlic salt (if you don't have it plain salt will do)
Cream Mixture:
2tbsp of mixed cheese blend (I had my infamous mexican blend on hand)
2tbsp of sour cream
1tbsp of butter
1 pinch of pepper
In a large saucepan over medium heat saute EVOO, onion and garlic. Peel and dice potatoes into silver dollar slices (not too thick) and put into pan adding garlic salt and pepper. Cook until potatoes brown up and soften up.
In a small bowl mix cheese, sour cream, butter, and pepper. Once potatoes have fully cooked combine them with the creamed mixture.
Here is the finished product!
