Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Chicken     Chicken Breast Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 15

Finely grated zest of 2 oranges
3/4 cup orange juice
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 cloves garlic, crushed
3/4 teaspoon dry mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 whole boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 3/4 pounds), cut into 1/2-inch-wide strips
1/2 cup plain breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/4 cup honey
Vegetable-oil cooking spray

Steps:

  • In a large nonreactive dish, combine orange zest, both juices, garlic, dry mustard, 1/4 teaspoon salt, ginger, and nutmeg. Add chicken; cover, and refrigerate 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a food processor, pulse breadcrumbs, butter, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper until fine crumbs. Transfer to a shallow bowl. Remove chicken from marinade, letting excess drip off; dredge in breadcrumb coating. Place on a lightly oiled baking sheet; bake until crisp and brown, 12 to 14 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, strain marinade into a small saucepan. Measure out 2 tablespoons; mix with cornstarch in a small bowl. Bring marinade in pan to a boil. Drizzle in cornstarch mixture, whisking constantly; boil, stirring, 1 minute more. Let cool slightly; stir in honey. Serve with chicken fingers.

Tips:

  • Use fresh oranges for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh oranges, you can use orange juice concentrate, but be sure to dilute it with water according to the package directions.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the dough tough.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the dough to hold its shape.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make the cookies dry.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before glazing them. This will help the glaze to set properly.
  • Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Orange Nut Fingers are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with simple ingredients and can be customized to your liking.
