Crock-Pot.Orange.Chicken.


I have always wanted to try making dinner in a Crock-Pot, especially because my schedule is always so hectic and I don't get home until I'm way past starving. I came across this recipe today for Orange Chicken and think I'll give it a whirl.

Ingredients -
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 4 large oranges (2 chopped, 2 juiced)
  • 2 large sweet potatoes (cut in 1/8’s)
  • 2 large celery stocks (cut into one-inch pieces)
  • 4 large carrots (cut into two-inch pieces)
  • 1 red onion (sliced)
  • 2 large sprigs of rosemary
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup water

Directions -

1. Layer ingredients, starting with carrots, sweet potato, celery, onion, then chicken.

2. Squeeze two large oranges over entire dish and sprinkle remaining chopped orange pieces, water, and sprigs of rosemary on top.

3. Cook on high for one hour, then turn down to low and cook six to eight hours more (depending on Crock-Pot).

4. When done, pour liquid from Crock-Pot into bowl and serve as orange gravy.
