Zubereitung von Grilled Citrus Ginger Chicken In Orange Sauce

In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup orange juice, 2 tablespoons low-sugar marmalade, 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger, and 1 teaspoon ground ginger.
Brush half of the mixture over 4 (6-ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breasts.
Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Place chicken on the preheated grill.
Grill chicken for 6-8 minutes per side, or until cooked through and internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C), basting occasionally with the remaining marmalade mixture.
While the chicken grills, prepare the couscous according to package directions, substituting 1 cup chicken broth for the required water. Do not add salt or butter.
For the sauce: In a small saucepan, combine 1/4 cup orange juice, 2 tablespoons low-sugar marmalade, 1 tablespoon reduced-calorie margarine, 1 tablespoon soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free), and 1 teaspoon grated orange zest.
Bring the sauce to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened (about 2-3 minutes).
Fluff the cooked couscous with a fork.
Arrange the grilled chicken over the couscous.
Drizzle generously with the orange sauce.
Garnish with extra grated orange zest and serve immediately.
