This is a twist on orange chicken and is a favorite of my family. You can use chicken pieces or even a turkey.

Time 1h10m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (3 pound) whole chicken, rinsed and patted dry
1 grapefruit, cut in half
1 tablespoon olive oil
½ teaspoon seasoned salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Place chicken into a roasting pan, and squeeze the juice from the grapefruit halves all over and inside the chicken. Drizzle chicken with olive oil, and sprinkle with seasoned salt. Cover with aluminum foil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven, covered, for 45 minutes; remove foil, and bake until meat is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 15 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone should read 180 degrees F (82 degrees C). Remove the chicken from the oven, cover with a doubled sheet of aluminum foil, and allow to rest in a warm area for 10 minutes before slicing.

This recipe was easy to follow and the chicken turned out great! The grapefruit sauce was a bit too tart for my taste, but I will definitely make this again with less grapefruit juice.
