A friend gave me this recipe, and it always receives lots of compliments. The curry-citrus sauce is the perfect accent for the golden-baked chicken. —Joanna Burks Marshfield, Missouri

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup orange juice
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon prepared mustard

  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 6 bone-in chicken breast halves (8 ounces each)
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 1/3 cup cold water

Directions

  • 1. In a large bowl, combine the first seven ingredients; set aside 1/3 cup for basting. Dip chicken in remaining butter mixture; place in a well-greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish.
  • 2. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 1 hour, basting occasionally with reserved butter mixture. Remove chicken and keep warm.
