Once again Bergy, a wonderfull taste treat!! I cut the recipe in half,(should have made the whole recipe, it was soo good!!), didn't have any orange juice around so I used a fresh orange, juiced it and put it in pulp and all, the one orange made exactly 1/4 cup juice! Doubled the ginger and the mustard. Served it with plain brown rice and Miller's Lemon green beans. (Had a citrus night). DH loved it and wants it again soon!! He took some of the extra sauce and put it over his rice and suggested next time a rice casserole with bite size chicken and the sauce doubled mixed in with it all. We both really love the sauce!! Thanks for a great keeper!! Back again, I used this as a marinade and glaze for a roast chicken, put some inside the cavity with some orange pieces too and of course covered the chicken with it. We loved it, very falvourful, especially the combination of orange and giner, mine was nice and thick and stuck well, maybe my marmalade was thicker. I did add more hot sauce and it had a nice little bite. Worked very well for a whole roast chicken, thanks again Bergy!

I'm sorry to say, this was very, very disappointing. The glaze/sauce was much too sweet and one-dimensional, despite the fact that I added lots of fresh garlic, chicken broth, and dry white wine before baking. When the chicken was done, I added extra mustard and lots of fresh lemon and lime juice to the sauce to try to cut the sweetness even more. It did cut the sweetness considerably, but the taste still just didn't make it. It was lacking in roundness and depth. Unfortunately, I have to give this a one-star rating.

Small town in the Okanagan, B.C.
On January 10 2010 I will celebrate 9 years of Life with Zaar. I can't imagine being without it! It has become part of my daily routine.
I feel very privileged to be one of the hosts on the Photo Forum. Taking photos of my culinary efforts is a full time hobby and I love it. My friends all know what to expect when they come to dinner "Are you finished taking pictures?" or "Did you get a photo of so & so?" I never let them wait too long and the food is NEVER cold! I now have over 6000 photos on Zaar - some fairly good and some definitely not so good. I am happy to say that practice does help.
My roots are in Vancouver BC Canada - a very beautiful city that holds many wonderful memories for me. In 1990, I decided that for my retirement years I may want to settle in a smaller community and found a slice of heaven in the North Okanagan B.C. I love living here but every once in a while I miss the bright city lights, the Broadway shows and some of the small wonderful ethnic restaurants that Vancouver abounds in. That is easily resolved. I just take a trip to the coast, visit with friends for a weekend see a show and feast on Dim Sum or other specialty foods.
I am getting a bit long in the tooth but was a very adventurous person. I have river rafted Hell's Gate on the Fraser river, been up in a glider over Hawaii (no not a Hang Glider!), gone hot air ballooning in the Napa Valley & the Fraser Valley, driven dune buggies on the dunes in Oregon, Para sailing in Mexico and tried many other adventurous, challenging, fun things. I have yet to try bungee jumping or sky diving. I may do them yet. I love to travel and experience other cultures. Mexco has been a favorite haunt. I have visited that lovely country many many times. Australia is another favorite as is England!
In the past 16 months I have taken off 61 pounds and feel wonderful. I am off all medications and all systems are GO! In years I may be 79 but in spirit I am still in my forties. We are only as old as we allow ourselves to feel. Always think positive. Do something a bit challenging every day & always do something silly every day. Be a kid again! Laugh every day - it is internal jogging.
