Instructions

Instructions and steps: 

Step 1 Grate the zest from the orange into the glass bowl (the zest is just the coloured part of the skin; try not to get the bitter white pith underneath). Crush the garlic.

Step 2 Add the orange juice, crushed garlic, honey and Worcestershire sauce and hot or barbecue sauce to the bowl. Mix together.

Step 3 Slice each chicken breast into 6 strips and marinate (that means soak) in the prepared orange mixture for 45 minutes. While the chicken is marinating you can prepare the couscous – see packaging for instructions.

Step 4 Heat a non-stick pan and cook the chicken, turning frequently, until browned all over.

Step 5 Pour in the remaining marinade and continue to cook, turning the chicken in the sauce until dark golden and sticky.

Step 6 Serve with couscous or salad, or as a burger or sub.

HFG Tip

Try cooking this on the barbecue or grill it on skewers.
