Number of Servings: 6

Ingredients

    Cranberry juice-I prefer frozen concentrate slightly thawed for a thicker sauce.
    Orange juice-again, frozen, light concentrate, 4 oz of each juice
    1 whole lemon
    1 tbsp orange zest
    1 tbsp fresh chopped parsley
    1 tbsp salt, I prefer sea salt
    1 tbsp pepper
    1 tsp paprika
    1 tbsp olive oil
    3 boneless skinless chicken breasts

Directions

Preheat oven to 375.
Roll lemon on counter to loosen juice, cut in half, and squeeze into large bowl. Remove any seeds, then add 1/2 of each can of slightly thawed juices or 4 ounces each of prepared juices. Add zest, parsley, salt, pepper, paprika, and olive oil. Whisk until mixed well. Spray a 13x9x2 baking dish and add mixture. Add chicken and coat well in sauce. Place in oven. Roast until internal temperature reaches 189 degrees. Sauce will thicken up during cooking. Serve hot, cover with sauce. Use a heavy papertowl or handtowel...to catch the drool! Enjoy!
