Fabulous!!! Yum! Yum! Yum! When I originally saw the recipe, it sounded great. I told my husband about it, but he was less than thrilled because amaretto is not his favorite. Well I made it anyway the other night. And his response was, "This is really, really good". It was SO tasty. As my husband said, it's kind of like eating candied chicken. The flavor is like no other. I did as icecreambears did and uncovered the last 10 mins of cooking to let the sauce thicken. I also didn't have orange juice concentrate, so just used regular orange juice and it was fabulous. Thanks Kittencal! Every recipe that I've made of yours has been outstanding. I'm certainly a fan.

I just finished eating this with my flatmate and I just needed to rate the recipe immediately to get the exclamation marks out of my head. Kittencal, my taste buds will never thank you enough, this was OUT-OF-THIS-WORLD-DELICIOUS!!!! I followed the recipe almost exactly (although I used fresh orange juice instead of concentrate and only three chicken breasts for two people) and served it with a simple pasta dish with herbs and eggs. The amaretto sauce caramelized in the oven and the result was nothing short of mind-boggling. The amaretto mustard mix hung to the surface of the chicken as if the bird was sweating alcohol (umm... something like that...). My flatmate is raving about it as I'm writing, I need to make this again for more people! Thank you, thank you, thank you Kittencal!

Nice flavors for chicken. Cut the recipe down for 2 chicken breast and it was perfect. Served with Kitten's sweet potato balls. Great dish for company or for a sweet romantic dinner for 2.
