Amaretto Chicken Recipe

Ingredients for Amaretto Chicken

• Boneless Chicken Breasts
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• Vegetable Oil
• 2 tablespoons butter
• Dijon Mustard
• 1 (12-ounce) can frozen orange juice concentrate

How to Make Amaretto Chicken

1. In a small bowl, combine the frozen orange juice concentrate with 1/2 cup of water. Set aside.
2. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
3. In a shallow dish, whisk together the flour, salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic salt.
4. Dredge each chicken breast in the flour mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
5. Heat the oil and butter in a large oven-safe skillet (or Dutch oven) over medium-high heat. Brown the chicken on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.
6. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
7. Add the Dijon mustard, orange juice mixture, and amaretto to the skillet. Increase the heat to medium-high and bring to a boil, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens slightly (about 2-3 minutes).
8. Return the chicken to the skillet, nestling it in the sauce.
9. Cover the skillet and transfer it to the preheated oven. Bake for 45 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear.
10. Serve immediately. This dish can be frozen after cooling completely. Reheat gently in a skillet or oven until heated through.
