Orange Chicken

So, this one is officially tried and true. Jean made it recently for dinner guests and it was a hit...

1 egg
1/3 c orange juice
1 - 1 1/2 c herb-seasoned stuffing mix, crushed
1 - 1 1/2 t paprika
1 T grated orange peel
1 t salt
8 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
6 T butter or margarine, melted
Orange slices (optional)

In a shallow bowl, beat egg; add orange juice. In another bowl, mix paprika, orange peel, salt and stuffing mix. Dip chicken into egg mixture, then into crumbs, turning to coat well. Pour butter or margarine into 13 x 9 inch bakng dish. Place chicken in baking dish, turning once to coat both sides. Bake, uncovered, at 375 for 45 minutes or until the chicken is tender and the juices run clear. Garnish with orange slices if desired. Yield: 4 to 8 servings.
