- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts · 765 kcal in the whole recipe
- 1 large orange, sliced into rounds · 94 kcal in the whole recipe
- 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce · 17 kcal in the whole recipe
- Non-stick cooking spray
Method
Slice the orange into rounds and set aside. Place the chicken breasts in a large zip-top bag, pour in the soy sauce, seal, and massage gently to coat. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly spray a shallow baking dish with cooking spray.
Arrange the marinated chicken in a single layer in the baking dish, discarding the bag, and bake uncovered for 20 minutes.
Flip the chicken breasts, top them with the reserved orange slices, and bake for another 15 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
