Original Recipe Yield 4 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 4 (4 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3/4 cup Pace® Picante Sauce
  • 1/4 cup orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
  • 1 cup regular long-grain white rice, prepared according to package directions

Directions

  1. Heat the oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 10 minutes or until well browned on both sides. Remove the chicken from the skillet.
  2. Reduce the heat to medium. Add the garlic to the skillet and cook and stir for 1 minute. Stir the picante sauce, orange juice and brown sugar in the skillet and heat to a boil. Return the chicken to the skillet. Reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook for 5 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. Serve the chicken and sauce with the rice.

Footnotes

  • Time-Saving: You can save time by using prepared minced garlic, typically found near the pasta sauces in the grocery store. Once the jar has been opened, be sure to store it in the refrigerator.

It wasn't anything too exciting. Tasted like chicken with salsa on it; which really is what it...
