Yield: 4 Servings
Ingredients:
- 1 2 1/2-3 lb chicken skinned a
- 1/2 ts Red pepper
- 1/2 ts Paprika
- 1 c Finely chopped onions
- 1/2 c Finely chopped celery
- 2 tb Tomato paste

- 1 tb Reduced calorie margarine
- 1/2 c Finely chopped bell pepper
- 1 6 oz can orange juice
- 2 tb Honey
- 1 ts Grated orange peel
- 1/4 ts Hot sauce
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Arrange the chicken halves in an eight inch baking dish sprayed with vegetable cooking spray. Combine the salt red pepper chili powder and paprika; mix well and sprinkle over the chicken; set aside. In a medium skillet over high heat melt the margarine. Add the onions bell pepper and celery; saute stirring constantly for five minutes. Add all the remaining ingredients. Cook constantly stirring for five more minutes or until thge sauce thickens then remove from the heat and pour over the chicken. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. Turn the chicken over and baste with the sauce. Bake uncovered for 30 minutes longer or until the chicken is tender basting often. note: Rather than use margarine to saute the vegetables I have used Pam spraying both the vegetables and the pan. Works just as well. Also for a little spicier dish try using Chinese red pepper instead of the ground red and use a Tbsp of hot sauce. I also usually leave out the ginger.
