    Honey Orange Chicken -- e-w
    Plan ahead….needs to marinate 4-8 hours or better overnight.
    Serves: 4

    1 c. chicken broth
    1 c. orange juice
    1/2 c. honey
    1 T. lemon juice
    1 T. cider vinegar
    1 T. reduced-sodium soy sauce
    1 tsp. grated orange peel
    1 tsp. ground ginger
    1/8 tsp. salt

    4 bone-in chicken breast halves (10-oz. each)
    1 T. cornstarch
    2 T. water
    4 c. hot cooked rice

    Optional: green onions, orange slices, & Parsley sprigs

    In a saucepan, combine the first 9 ingredients. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat; cool. Pour 1-1/3 c. marinade into a large resealable plastic bag; add chicken. Press out air and seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for 4 to 8 hours or overnight, turning occasionally.
    Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade.

    Drain chicken discarding marinade. Grill, covered, over medium-heat for 12-15 minutes on each side or until juices run clear. Meanwhile combine cornstarch and water in small saucepan until smooth; stir in reserved marinade. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened.

    Remove and discard skin from chicken. Serve chicken over rice; drizzle with sauce. Garnish with green onions, orange sections and parsley if desired.
