INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

ea Chicken 3 tb Butter 1/2 tb Mustard, Dijon 1/2 c Juice, orange  1/4 c
Sugar, brown 1 tb Cornstarch 1/4 c Water 1/8 c Vodka  Cut chickens in
half lengthwise.  Blend butter and mustard together.  Rub chicken
inside and out with this mixture. Place chicken, skin  side down, in
baking dish with tight-fitting cover.  Preheat oven to 375. Combine
orange juice and brown sugar, stirring  until sugar is completely
dissolved. Pour over and around chicken.  Cover and bake for 30
minutes.  Turn chicken over, baste with pan juices, and continue to
bake,  uncovered, for 20 minutes longer, basting occasionally.  Remove
chicken to heated platter and keep warm.  Mix cornstarch with  water.
Stir this into juices from pan. Cook over low heat, stirring
constantly, until thickened. Remove from heat, stir in vodka, and  pour
sauce over chicken.  Sylvia's comments: I'm unenthusiastic about this
one, and I'm not  sure why. The chicken was pretty bland, but chicken
usually tastes  bland to me, and the sauce was certainly flavorful. The
combination  of mustard and orange juice didn't do a thing for my taste
buds. It  also took about 1/2 hour longer to bake than the recipe
called for.  Next time, I think I'll leave out the mustard/butter rub,
add a  little pumpkin pie spice to the orange juice/brown sugar
mixture, and  cook the whole mess in the crockpot rather than the oven.
