Sautéed orange chicken with zucchini

Andreas Trauttmansdorff

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp butter

  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts

  • 1/3 cup orange juice

  • 3 tbsp orange marmalade, or apricot or peach jam

  • 1/2 to tsp Tabasco sauce

  • 1 tsp garlic powder

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 1/4 tsp pepper

  • 2 small zucchini

  • 1/4 cup coarsley chopped fresh cilantro or mint

Instructions

  • Melt butter in a wide frying pan over medium heat. Add chicken. Cook, until chicken is golden, 4 minutes per side. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir orange juice with marmalade, Tabasco, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Pour mixture over chicken and turn chicken to coat. Cover and simmer, turning occasionally, 5 minutes.

  • Meanwhile, slice zucchini in half lengthwise, then cut into thick pieces. After chicken has cooked 5 minutes, stir in zucchini. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is springy when pressed, 2 to 3 more minutes. Sprinkle with coriander. Good with rice.
