CROCK-POT MEXICAN ORANGE CHICKEN (POLLO CON NARANJA)
My husband had open-heart surgery when we were living on the Texas-Mexican border in 2001. The wife of his heart-surgeon, Velda de La Garza, wrote a heart-healthy Mexican cookbook (*Healthy Mexican Cooking*), which we purchased while he was in the hospital. This dish is one of our favorites -- an easy Mexican take on that old favorite, Orange Chicken. We found it needed a little more spice than called for; you could either up the cayenne or leave the jalapeno seeds in. But then we like spicy food!

POLLO EN JUGO DE NARANJA (CHICKEN IN ORANGE JUICE
Steps:
- Dredge chicken pieces in flour; brown pieces on all sides in oil. Remove browned pieces to shallow baking dish. Pour off excess oil from browning pan. Combine the orange juice, orange peel, white wine, salt, raisins and pineapple in the pan and bring to a slow boil. Deglaze pan. Pour the sauce over the chicken and cover the dish with foil. Bake at 325º for about 30 minutes. Baste once or twice during this time. Raise temperature to 350º and bake uncovered for 15 minutes longer. Additional orange juice may be added during baking, if needed. Remove chicken to a preheated platter and thicken sauce with corn starch dissolved in a little orange juice, if a thicker sauce is desired. Use 1 tablespoon of cornstarch for every 3 tablespoons of orange juice. Pour remaining sauce in a separate bowl. Garnish the chicken with slivered almonds, orange slices and parsley. Serve with rice and sour cream casserole and salad with guacamole dressing.

CHICKEN NARANJA
When I first started freezer cooking or Once A Month Cooking, this is one of the first recipes I tried. NOTE: Instead of baking, you can slow cook in crockpot...I usually do! This chicken is marinated in it's sauce as it defrosts and I would recommend if you are making it the same day to let it marinate for that extra flavor. It's slightly sweet, tangy and savory at the same time. I served it over egg noodles but it would be delicious over rice as well. I ended up thickening the sauce slightly with cornstarch, however this isn't necessary.
