Sauce was amazing - you really have to let it get *lots* of \"frothy\" bubbles for it to thicken (about 4-5 on my stove) I had it turned down low and the small simmer bubbles were not thickening it. Didn't bother with the orange zest and my husband thought it might be a little too orange-y -- based on the reviews i wonder if the type\/brand of OJ people use matters (I used Tropicana).<\/p>

<\/p>

I cooked the thighs in a skillet like another reviewer suggested -- I did try to put the sauce on at the very end as instructed and it just makes things smokey -- next time I'll just glaze the chicken once it's on the plate.<\/p>","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":5,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2022-05-06","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"joycerm53"},"reviewBody":"Great recipe!!

I used baked chicken pieces in place of the thighs! I prepared the sauce and then I heated the chicken pieces in my stockpot and I coated the pieces in sauce in stockpot for 20 minutes on my stovetop. The sauce was kept as recipe directed. I used Greek seasoning to season the pieces of chicken as I did not have the lemon-pepper on hand. I must say that this sauce really added to the chicken! (I do not have a grill.) I did have to stir the sauce to get the mustard to blend well but it did work out!<\/p>
