Super Bowl snack food - I'm sure there will be way too much. I'm taking a couple stuffed sandwiches (broccoli, Black Forest ham, Swiss cheese, spring onions, sweet/hot mustard, lemon juice).

abj....can you tell me more about your Orange Roasted Chicken......it sounds really good.

Sure Sizzlin

I stuffed the cavity with apples, oranges, onion, and thyme. Then tied it up. Drizzled with a little butter and evoo mixture on top with some salt and peper.

While the bird was roasting I made a mixture of 2 T. honey, 2 T. frozen orange juice concentrate and about 2 t. thyme. I used this to baste the chicken torwards the last 20 minutes or so of cooking.

While the chicken was resting I simmered a mixture of 1 cup chicken broth, 1 T. frozen orange, 2 t. cornstarch that had been dissolved in 2 t. cold water, pinch of sugar. I decided to added a little of the drippings from the chicken, but you don't need to. Then used this mixture to drizzle on the chicken after it was cut up.

I served with cranberry relish

Oh wow this sounds amazing. Thanks as I'm always trying to figure out new ways to fix chicken.

No problem Sizzlin. My whole family loved it, which is a rarity here.
