Orange Chicken

This recipe is so delicious and simple. It looks good, so it's good for entertaining, and it makes great leftovers, so it's perfect for lunches. What else can we ask for?

Orange Chicken
6 servings, 5P+/serving

Ingredients
1 med. orange
1 tsp olive oil
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp dried rosemary, crumbled
1/2 tsp garlic salt
1/4 tsp ground pepper
6 chicken thighs, skinless, boneless, trimmed (4 oz each)

Directions
Preheat the oven to 350F

Zest the orange and mince the zest. Mix the zest with the oil, the paprika, the rosemary, the garlic salt and the pepper.

Supreme the orange (making sure to remove all the "white").

Rub the zest-spice mixture over the 6 chicken thighs and put in a roasting pan (I used a pyrex oven dish), spread the orange pieces around the chicken thighs.

Roast until cooked through, about 45 minutes (until juices runs clear when poked).

Cover with a foil and let stand 5 minutes before serving.
