ingredients

2 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
6 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
12 ounces orange juice frozen concentrate, thawed
6 tablespoons bourbon

BUTTERED ALMONDS

1/2 cup almonds, slivered
2 teaspoons butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper

directions

Heat oven to 425 degrees F. In large, heavy, oven-proof skillet melt butter; let cool, but do not let solidify.

Turn chicken in butter to coat. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Tuck edges under, forming compact shape about 1-1/2 inches thick.

Place chicken in skillet, skinned side up. Bake, basting occasionally, for about 15 minutes, until meat thermometer registers 190 degrees F. Remove chicken to warm serving plates; keep warm.

Saute almonds in butter until lightly toasted. Sprinkle with salt. Let cool to crisp.

Add orange juice concentrate to drippings in skillet; stir over high heat until reduced by one-third. Stir in bourbon; heat through. Stir in remaining salt and pepper; pour sauce over chicken. Sprinkle with the almonds.

    This recipe goes back 20 years from my mom. Have been making it ever since; especially good for guests. I serve with garlic mashed potatoes & vegetable. Nothing but compliments! Have never changed ingredients.
