Citrus Chicken
A light and simple recipe for preparing stunning chicken. A wonderful aroma spreads during the cooking process! I used chicken thighs for this dish, however, any parts of the bird or a whole carcass divided into portion pieces will work. Potatoes or rice would be excellent as a side dish.
