Recipe information

  • Yield

    Makes 4 servings

Ingredients

4 skinless boneless chicken breast halves
2 teaspoons Chinese five-spice powder
2 teaspoons toasted sesame seeds
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter
1 medium red onion, thinly sliced
1/2 cup orange juice
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons hot pepper oil
2 seedless oranges, peeled and sliced crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick rounds

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Sprinkle chicken with salt, pepper, five-spice powder, and sesame seeds. Melt butter in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Sauté chicken until golden brown and cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. Using tongs, transfer to plate.

    Step 2

    Add onion to drippings in skillet and sauté until tender, stirring often, about 3 minutes. Add orange juice, soy sauce, and pepper oil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer 2 minutes, stirring often. Add oranges and stir until just heated through, about 1 minute. Return chicken to skillet to reheat if necessary. Divide onion-orange mixture among 4 plates, top with chicken, and serve.
