1 cup wild rice

1/2 cup scallion, sliced in rounds, white and light green parts (2 scallions)

2 tablespoons freshly squeezed orange juice

MOM'S ORANGE CURRY CHICKEN



Mom's Orange Curry Chicken image

I can remember deciding this was my favorite chicken when we lived in Florida -- when I was three or four! It's still my favorite. The curry gives the chicken a wonderful color and adds an exotic flavor to the sweet orange-honey-mustard sauce. I always serve with white rice. 6 WW pts per serving; rice is 3 pts for 3/4 cup.
