It's fabulous hot or cold. I make a big batch so there are leftovers (which make tasty quesadillas). I move my oven rack to a lower setting to keep the chicken moist, and even then it barely takes 30 minutes.

Time 4h45m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 ½ cups orange juice
¼ cup olive oil
¼ cup chopped fresh chives
3 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 (2.5 pound) whole chicken, cut into 8 pieces

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, mix the orange juice, olive oil, chives, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Place the chicken in the mixture. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator at least 4 hours.
  • Preheat the oven broiler.
  • Remove the chicken from the marinade, and shake off excess. Pour the marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer for 10 minutes; set aside.
  • Arrange the chicken on a baking sheet. Broil 30 minutes in the preheated oven, 6 to 8 inches from heat. Turn and brush frequently with the remaining marinade mixture, until no longer pink and juices run clear.

I'm not a fan of rosemary, so I omitted it from the recipe. The chicken was still very flavorful and delicious.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I made it with some leftover roasted chicken and it was delicious.

I substituted chicken thighs for the breasts and it turned out great! The thighs were moist and juicy, and the sauce was just as delicious.
