Clementine {Orange} Chicken

May 16, 2014 0 comments Article Main Course, Meat, Recipes, Sauces

Our new Whole Foods has been open for a few weeks now and it is awesome. I am so excited to be working such a great company, plus it is so nice to finally have good food available to us up in the mountains! The only downside is that I am tempted to buy everything, every time I work. Although I think I am going to need to pace myself when it comes to buying things from work.

Clementine-ChickenDo you ever end up buying, buying, buying, but not eating any of the stuff you bought? This happened to me and I was left with every type of citrus you could practically imagine. I really hate wasting food, so I decided I would make a sauce with the extra clementines that I had. The clementines added an extra sweetness to the sauce that regular oranges don’t have. This was a complete experiment to make an Asian inspired clementine sauce, and it worked out great! So if you are ever hesitating to buy that huge bag of Cuties from the grocery store, do it! You can always use extras to make this delicious sauce!
