List of Ingredients

    olive oil spray
7 oz boned and skinned chicken breast halves trimmed

For the SAUCE:
(original calls for 1/8 tsp salt)
1/4 tsp chili powder
1/4 tsp cumin powder
1/4 tsp dried thyme
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
2 tsp fine ground oat flour
1 strip lemon peel (1x2-inch)
1 strip orange peel (1x2-inch)
2 tsp minced ginger fresh
2 sm garlic cloves peel and slice
1/2 cup apple juice or cider


Recipe

* Remove rind pieces from orange and lemon with a vegetable peeler and rough chop. Heat a saute or skillet large enough to just hold the meat pieces. Spray. Sear to lightly brown the chicken pieces, both sides.

* Meanwhile combine all the sauce ingredients in a measuring cup (or bowl with spout). Pour into the hot pan and let the liquid boil a bit to cook the thickener. Reduce the heat to low, cover tightly and cook gently for 15 minutes. Serve with the cooking juices.

* Add WATER (1/4 to 1/2 cup) or more apple juice to moisten the sauce.

* The sauce is spicy, biting and sweet. Taste is similar to some versions of Pad Thai - so serve with noodles or thin rice pasta or with hot steamed white rice (either long or medium grain). A dark green vegetable or medley that includes one would also be a good choice.
