Time 3h10m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

½ cup orange juice
1 teaspoon ground ginger
2 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon Dijon-style prepared mustard
salt and pepper to taste
4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
2 cups crushed buttery round crackers
¼ cup wheat and barley nugget cereal (e.g. Grape-Nuts™)
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
4 tablespoons orange marmalade, warmed

Steps:

  • To Make Marinade: Combine the orange juice, ginger, honey, mustard, salt and pepper to taste in a glass or stainless steel mixing bowl. Mix the marinade until well combined; add chicken pieces and turn to coat. Cover dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to marinate.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • In a resealable plastic bag, mix together the crushed crackers, Grape-Nuts®, and flour. Rinse chicken and pat semi-dry. Dredge in cracker mixture to coat and place in baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes.
  • Remove the chicken from the oven and preheat the oven's broiler.
  • Brush each chicken piece with a light coating of marmalade. Return the baking dish to the oven and place it under the broiler for 3 minutes.

I wasn't sure how this dish would turn out, but I was pleasantly surprised! The chicken was moist and tender, and the cereal coating added a nice crunch. I would definitely recommend this recipe.

Yum! This chicken was so good. I used Corn Flakes and it was the perfect coating for the chicken. It was crispy and flavorful.
