This is a recipe from the first cookbook in a series, "For the Breast of Friends" - a group of women in a small town put together collections of their favourite recipes to raise money for breast cancer and all 3 in the series are huge sellers in Canada! This is a fun dish - and so delicious. The leftover chicken is good in a salad the next day!

Time 25m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

flour
salt and pepper
paprika
6 chicken breasts, boneless, skinless
1/4 cup canola oil
2 garlic cloves, chopped
3 tablespoons butter
3/4 cup orange juice
3/4 cup vodka
1 dash cayenne pepper
parsley

Steps:

  • In a plastic bag, combine flour with salt, pepper, and enough paprika to slightly make the flour pink.
  • Add the chicken breast to the flour and toss to coat completely.
  • put oil, butter, and garlic in a 10 inch skillet and heat until hot.
  • add the chicken and cook until browned on both sides, about 3 to 5 minutes.
  • remove the chicken to a platter with paper towel to drain oil.
  • reduce the heat and add orange juice, vodka, parsley, and cayenne to the pan and stir to scrape up the pan drippings - sprinkle in some flour to thicken up the sauce if you would like.
  • immediately add the chicken, return heat to high, and cook for 1 more minute.
