grilled - Orange Chicken
1/2 cup orange juice
1/3 cup lime juice
1/3 cup vegetable oil
2 Tablespoons honey
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
4 whole chicken legs (about 2 1/2 pounds), halved (see Tip, below)
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 navel oranges
In a large bowl or large resealable plastic bag, combine orange and
lime juices, oil, honey, garlic and pepper.
Add the chicken pieces and let stand in the refrigerator at least
1 hour or overnight.
Prepare the grill for medium heat, placing rack about 4 inches from
the coals. Remove the chicken from the marinade; discard liquid.
Sprinkle salt on both sides of the chicken pieces. Grill, turning
occasionally with tongs, until golden brown and cooked through,
25-35 minutes.
Meanwhile, using a small sharp knife, peel the oranges, cutting
through the peel, the pith and the outer membrane of the orange
segments. Separate the segments by cutting between the membrane
and the fruit.
Place the chicken on a platter. Garnish with the orange segments.
Makes 4 servings.
