Sixteenth Century Orange Chicken

Sixteenth Century Orange Chicken
  • 2 1/2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast meat - cubed
  • 1/2 cup chicken stock
  • 2 oranges, peeled and segmented
  • 4 pitted prunes
  • 4 pitted dates
  • 1/2 cup dried currants
  • 1/2 teaspoon whole cloves
  • 1 teaspoon black peppercorns
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground mace
  • 2 tablespoons white sugar
  • 1 tablespoon rose water
  • 3/4 cup white wine


  1. Place chicken stock in a large saucepan over high heat. Add oranges, prunes, dates, currants and cloves and boil until the fruit has broken down a bit, about 7 to 10 minutes.
  2. Stir in peppercorns, mace, sugar, rose water and wine; reduce heat to low and simmer for about 10 minutes. Strain and set aside.
  3. Brown chicken in a large skillet until lightly browned on both sides; add reserved sauce and cook together, turning and basting, until chicken is cooked through and juices run clear, about 20 to 25 minutes.
