Tips:
- For the best results, use fresh oranges for the sauce. This will give it a brighter, more vibrant flavor.
- If you don't have fresh oranges, you can use bottled orange juice. However, the flavor will be less intense.
- Be sure to zest the oranges before juicing them. The zest adds a lot of flavor to the sauce.
- Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken breasts are best when they are cooked through but still tender and juicy. Overcooked chicken is dry and tough.
- Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as rice, noodles, or vegetables.
