what you need
- 8 skinless chicken breasts
- 1 small jar honey
- 1 small can crushed pineapple
- 2 tsp. sugar
- 4 oranges
make it
Preheat oven to 350°F. Thoroughly wash chicken breasts. Place in a large baking dish. In a medium bowl, combine sauce ingredients. Pour the jar of honey into the bowl. Add the can of crushed pineapple with juice. Sprinkle with sugar. Mix honey, pineapple juice and crushed pineapple in bowl. The sauce should have a rather thick consistency. Glaze chicken with sauce, evenly coating the entire front side of the chicken breast.
Wash and peel oranges, but do not discard the peels. Squeeze oranges so that the juice covers the chicken and thins the sauce. Place orange peels in the casserole dish around the chicken breast which will give a stronger hint of orange taste.
Bake for 30-45 minutes or until the chicken has a white center and is golden brown.
Notes
Serve over hot white rice.
