Ooooh. This was a really easy and tasty dish to prepare. I couldn't find sour orange juice so I used a 50:50 mix of orange and ruby red grapefruit juice. This worked extremely well and I would encourage others to try it if the availability of sour juice is what's stopping them for trying this recipe. My chicken breasts were grilled on my George Foreman grill. Though the recipe calls for marinading one to three hours, I had one leftover breast that sat in the fridge overnight. Even better than the first batch. Will certainly be making this one again.
