Apple and Orange Chicken

  3.9 – 76 reviews  • Chicken Leg Recipes

Zucchini-chocolate cupcakes with cream cheese icing are a fantastic solution to this conundrum because I simply like chocolate but am not the happiest when eating particularly rich meals in the summer.

Matthew Hooper
It was quick and easy and we loved it. We used chicken drumsticks but all agreed it would definitely be better with the chicken breasts. We will make it again.
Dawn Williams
This was good, we didn’t use bone in chicken so we could have easily shaved 15 minutes off the time. A little over cooked.. Will do better next time..
Adrian Franklin
Not bad. I bought cream of chicken soup instead of the mix by mistake, so I don’t know how that might have affected the recipe. It was okay, not great.
Tyler Rodriguez
This was very disappointing…very bland. It was easy to prepare, but given the result, it was too much effort.
Kathryn Reyes
Good. A bit too garlicy for me, but otherwise it was a nice twist on the traditional chicken. I used boneless skinless chicken breasts and put it over noodles. Was good and my husband and I ate the leftovers too!
Phyllis Wang
super easy to make! my family loved it! the whole pan got devoured, i did use a can of cream of chicken soup instead of the dry pack (small town) but still very yummy! i also marinated the chicken for about 30 minutes and used boneless. but i highly recommend this to anyone who wants a delicious dinner and an amazing smelling home lol
Judy Kelley
This is delicious. The only change we made was to use boneless chicken breasts. The gravy is so delish, I make boiled potatoes with this meal. This is a fantastic dish for leftovers too – it doesn’t dry out when brought for lunch and heated up in the microwave.
Robert Johnson
Used a quarter of a can of cream of mushroom instead of chicken. Added more apple juice.
April Harmon
I didn’t care for the flavor of this dish at all. It ended up to sweet.

I live in Korea and didn’t have access to the onion soup mix–I added some cream of chicken–a little too sweet still–good flavor–worth trying to perfect–maybe some actual onions and a little more condensed soup next time!
Julie Neal
My family absolutely adored this dish. We served it with noodles and spooned the gravy over the noodles. However, I could not find dry cream of mushroom mix, so I added a can of cream of mushroom soup. The taste was sweet, with a hint of tang from the soy sauce. Good low-cal food.
Hannah Cardenas
I did not taste any apple or orange. The chicken was not dry, but I think that is because it cooked smothered in the sauce.
Julie Wells
I will not trust when people give a recipe a high rating again. This was no to our taste. The chicken was bland, even with the sauce, and the sauce was just weird. I wish I had used one of my perfectly good chicken recipes instead.
April Lee
The dish is a good and easily prepared chicken dish.
Justin Jones
It was delicious. I will be making this again for sure!
Grant Jackson
I followed the recipe to the T it was very easy to make and and everyone enjoyed it and if everyone likes it and wants me to make it again it gets 5 stars thanks for sharing
Raymond Steele
bueno de sabor. Use boneless y tardaron aprox. 1 hora en cocinar. Estaban cubiertas del liquido y con aluminum foil. Se necesita espesar la salsa que tiene un chi de sabor a china.
Mackenzie Aguirre
Did not like this one at all. Found it to be rather tasteless.
Shawn Walker
It’s funny reading the reviews, way too orangey vs not fruity at all…have to say I am in the second camp. Was definitely nice and tender (I did marinate boneless breasts for a few hours), however, think the name of the dish was mostly responsible for the disappointment rather than the actual taste. Had it just been “Savoury Chicken…” or something, may have had a more positive response to the dish. Was just expecting a much fruitier/sweeter flavour. In the end, was actually more reminiscent of your basic korean marinade for bulgogi.
Seth Kelley
This was absolutely delicious, very moist and flavorful. The only thing I would change is replacing the dry soup mixes with my own spices, as I think that unnecessarily adds to the cost. I also used worcesteshire sauce instead of the soy sauce. Will make again.
Carolyn Hampton
This had a unique flavor and I changed a few things to use what I had. I juiced enough old tangerines I had skin and all and juiced enough cored apple. I did not have packaged onion soup so I used a can of french onion. Baked boneless skinned chicken breasts for 20 min at 350. Very moist and nice to have a different flavor. FYI Lipton cup-o-soup cream of chicken is in the soup isle. Pretty tasty and nice to have on a cold day for a little warm you up.
