3 Tb frzn orange juice concentrate
3 Tb low sodium soy sauce
1 Tb minced garlic
1 Tb hot sesame oil
1 t chili garlic sauce, or chili paste
3/4 c canned unswt mandarin oranges and their juice
6 (4 oz) boneless skinless chkn breasts

In a large plastic bag combine the juice concentrate, soy sauce, garlic, oil, and chili paste. Gently stir in the oranges and their juice. Add the chicken, seal the bag and marinate at least 6hrs or overnight.

Preheat the oven to 400 F. Transfer the chicken to an 11 x 7 casserole dish and pour the remaining marinade over the top. Cover with foil, and bake for 25-30 mins.

(I served this chicken and sauce over some brwon rice and it was really good, tastes just like chinese takeout except it's healthier!!)
