Anyway, on with the food!!!
Simple. I hate to keep using that word over and over again, but I can't help myself. I love sharing recipes with you that take little to no time in the kitchen. Even though I love to cook there are nights where the task seems incredibly daunting. This is a meal you can make in under 30 minutes if you marinated the chicken the night before. Add a wonderful side salad and some bread and you have the perfect light weeknight meal.

Ingredients:
1 lbs chicken - breasts, thighs - skin on, skin off - bone in, no bone - it's your choice
1/2 cup orange marmalade
1/4 cup honey
1 Tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
1 Tablespoon orange juice
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Directions:
In a bowl, mix together all the ingredients except the chicken. Rinse the chicken and pat dry. Place chicken in a shallow dish or a resealable bag and pour the marinade over it. Seal and place in fridge over night (minimum hours to marinate = 4).
When ready to grill chicken. Preheat grill to 375 degrees F. Oil grill grates. Place the chicken directly on the grates and cook for 6-8 minutes per side or until the chicken is cooked through. Remove from grill and allow to rest for 3-5 minutes before cutting into. Enjoy!

It's always interesting to break in a new boss - hope ot works out well.
Simple dinners are the best ones for after work. And leftovers (IF there are leftovers, of course!) would make fabulous sandwiches or salads for the next meal after a busy day. So this is absolutely perfect ... :)
cooked to perfection! I just picked up orange marmalade for a dish just like this one! Delicious! Good luck w/the boss!!! And yes..baked goods always work!
I love the orange/citrus flavors. Don't bother sucking up to your new boss, just kick him in the kneecap and say, "Remember that, sucker."
Thats a yummy looking piece of chicken Jenn! I agree w Stephen, save the sucking up for later (the knee kick is priceless, gotta try that one!)- the new guy on the block should be the one doing the kissing up :) However if you were to bring in cookies or brownies I'm sure that wouldn't hurt anything either :) Hope this week is a great one!
Bless your heart! I was just sitting here wondering what to make for dinner tonight, and this is it. I just bought a jar of marmelade, and I always have boneless, skinless chicken breasts in the freezer, so I'm ready to go! Thanks, Jenn. P.S. You didn't need to send the rain today. ;-)
perfect chicken!.... have you thought about roasting the whole lot together in an oven tin the night before (rice and chicken) and then eating it cold with a salad the next day?... good luck with the boss, I love a bit of intrigue at work.
Simple flavors make the best dishes... love this one!
So, you get a new boss the same time as the Office gets a new boss? Coincidence? I think not!
This sounds really good btw.
Good luck with the new boss, and this does look very cimple but delish - good for a weeknight.
I find food bribing always work :)
I hope the coming weeks will be less stressful. The chicken looks delish. Gotta love simple flavours.
THe chicken looks so succulent and juicy!
Good luck with the new boss!
