Steps:
- Place the chicken breasts in a single layer in a glass or ceramic baking dish.
- Combine the ingredients for the marinade, and pour over the chicken. Cover the pan, and marinate overnight or longer in the refrigerator, turning the chicken a few times.
- When ready to cook, adjust oven racks to the middle and broil positions. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
- Bake the chicken, uncovered, in the marinade for 12 to 16 minutes or until almost done. Be careful not to overcook. Increase the heat to broil, move the pan of chicken under the broiler and cook a few more minutes, with the door partly open, until the breasts are golden.
- While the chicken is cooking, line a serving plate with a bed of watercress. Remove chicken from the oven, place on top of the watercress, spoon the pan juices over and garnish with orange slices.
