Spicy Honey-Glazed Chicken

My new favorite cookbook is Saving Dinner, by Leanne Ely. I had to pay an overdue fine at the library because I just can't bear to return it. And I haven't had time to copy all the recipes we love from it, out onto paper. This lady is a nutritionist, so all the meals are incredibly healthy, but also incredibly tasty.

Here is one of our new favorites: Spicy Honey-Glazed Chicken.

1/2 c. honey
2 TBSP. frozen orange juice concentrate
2 cloves garlic, pressed
1/8 tsp. red pepper flakes (take out your kids' portions before putting this in. It's not really that hot, but warmth is more than the average child probably likes)
1 TBSP butter
1/2 tsp olive oil
6 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
Salt and pepper to taste
cilantro, chopped
green onions, chopped

Combine honey, OJ, and garlic in a small bowl. (If no children are eating add the red pepper flakes now as well.)

In a skillet, heat butter and olive oil over medium heat, add chicken, salt and pepper to taste, and brown the chicken.

Add honey mixture to the skillet and cook, turning to thoroughly coat the chicken. Cook until the sauce begins to thicken. (At this point you can take out childrens' portion and then sprinkle in some red pepper flakes.)

To serve, place chicken on plate, spoon sauce over the top and sprinkle with cilantro and green onions.

Serve with brown or white rice, steamed broccoli, or baked butternut squash.
Enjoy! This is honestly one of the most flavorful recipes I own now. The orange juice, honey, and garlic are a great combination.
