This recipe combines the tangy flavor of orange with the crunch of almonds for a delightful chicken dish.
Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
Ensure the butter doesn't brown to maintain a smooth flavor.
Add the sliced almonds and sauté until golden brown.
Stir constantly to prevent the almonds from burning.
Add the chicken breasts to the pan and cook until golden on both sides.
Cook the chicken in batches if needed to avoid overcrowding the pan.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cornstarch, chicken broth, orange juice concentrate, molasses, and soy sauce. Mix until smooth.
Whisk the mixture thoroughly to avoid lumps.
Pour the sauce into the pan with the chicken and almonds. Stir until the sauce thickens.
Cook on low heat to allow the flavors to meld together.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Taste the sauce before adding salt as the soy sauce may already provide enough saltiness.
Serve the chicken hot, garnished with additional toasted almonds if desired.
Pair with steamed rice or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
