    Great flavour! I roasted the chicken covered for the first half of cooking time, then added 1 tbsp olive oil to the orange juice and poured that into the pan for the last half of cooking time; cooked it uncovered, basting like mad. When done, and while the chicken rested, I put the pan with the drippings on the stove and boiled it, whisking up the brown bits, until reduced to a syrupy consistency. Fabulous! I didn't even need to add salt or pepper to the sauce! Erin, this recipe is a real keeper; very easy and very delicious!

    Very good! I had never tried orange with chicken before & was fearful it would have too much orange flavour. My chicken had a small cavity so I used 2-1/4 pieces of an orange to stuff & upped the garlic. For the sauce I used about 1/2 cup orange juice. It was moist & delicious! Next time I will stuff the full 2-1/2 pieces in the cavity & use the full 1 cup of orange juice. The fresh O.J. was milder than I thought it would be. We enjoyed this, thanks.
