SPICY HONEY ORANGE CHICKEN BREASTS WITH MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Clean and dry chicken breasts. Pound them to an even thickness.
• Put flour on a plate. Sprinkle 1/2 the chili powder and no-salt lemon pepper on flour. Dredge the first chicken breast so that both sides are covered in flour and spice. Repeat process for the second chicken breast.
• Before you start the chicken, put the rice in the water and heat. When the water boils, cover and reduce heat to low simmer. Simmer for 20 minutes and then let stand until chicken is done.
• Heat garlic and olive oil in a pan at medium-high heat. Cook chicken breasts for about 3-4 minutes on each side - until they are about 1/2 cooked.
• Remove chicken from the pan and keep warm (I put them in the oven at 170 degrees).
• Deglaze the pan with the wine and reduce by half (for those of you who don't know what this means - as I didn't - it means pour the wine in the hot pan and let it simmer/ boil until only half of it is left and all of the chicken fat, etc. is dissolved into the wine).
• Add the orange juice, honey and red pepper flakes. Allow it to just boil.
• Place the chicken back in the pan and add the mushrooms. Cook at medium-low heat for about 10 - 12 minutes (until chicken is cooked through). Pour sauce over chicken occasionally.
• Serve over rice.

SPICY GLAZED CHICKEN BREASTS

Steps:

• Pat chicken dry and pound to an even ½-inch thickness with a heavy skillet or meat pounder.
• In a large (12-inch) skillet, combine the oil, almonds and garlic. Season with salt, then set over high heat. Once the mixture starts to sizzle, reduce heat to medium and cook, swirling occasionally, until light golden, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and use a slotted spoon to transfer the almonds and garlic to a paper towel-lined plate. (Keep the oil in the skillet.)
• Set the skillet over medium-high. Season the chicken all over with 1 teaspoon salt, then add to the skillet and cook until browned underneath and opaque halfway up the sides, 3 to 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and transfer the chicken to a plate, seared side up.
• With the skillet still over low heat, add the tomato paste and red-pepper flakes and cook, stirring constantly and scraping up browned bits, until the paste is a shade darker and starts to stick to the skillet, 1 to 2 minutes. Return the chicken, as well as any accumulated juices, seared side up to the skillet, cover, and cook until the chicken is cooked through, 4 to 6 minutes. (The moisture from the chicken will keep the tomato paste from burning, but if you're concerned, add a teaspoon of water as a preventative measure.)
• Uncover, add the lemon juice, then flip and drag the chicken through the tomato-lemon glaze to coat all sides. Transfer to plates, spoon over any remaining glaze and sprinkle with the fried almonds and garlic.
