    -------- ------------ --------------------------------
    Chicken:
    Vegetable oil cooking spray
    3 lb Chicken -- skinless
    1/2 ts Paprika
    1 md Onion (1 c) -- sliced
    Orange Sauce:
    1/2 c Frozen orange juice concentrate
    1/3 c Water
    2 tb Brown sugar
    2 tb Fresh parsley -- minced
    1 ts Light soy sauce
    1 ts Dry sherry
    1/2 ts Ground ginger

    Orange juice tenderizes and adds flavor. Brown the chicken pieces
    under a broiler. Cook with onion and sauce on the stove top or oven.

    Wash a 2-1/2 to 3 lb chicken. Pat dry with paper towels. Cut into
    serving pieces; remove all visible fat.

    Turn on the broiler. Lightly spray a baking sheet with vegetable oil
    spray; set aside.

    Sprinkle the chicken pieces with paprika and place on the prepared
    baking sheet.

    Broil the chicken about 6" from the heat until lightly browned on all
    sides, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from the broiler and transfer the
    pieces to a Dutch oven or large, deep skillet and top with onion
    slices.

    Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together all the orange sauce
    ingredients. Pour the sauce over the chicken and onions.

    Stove Top:

    Bring the sauce to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to a
    simmer, cover and continue cooking until chicken is done and tender,
    about 55 minutes.

    Alternative To Stove Top:

    Alternatively, place the browned chicken and onion slices in a
    casserole dish. Pour orange juice mixture over all and bake, covered,
    in a preheated 350?F oven for 55 to 60 minutes or until the chicken
    is tender.

    Serve the chicken warm over yolk-free noodles, if desired. It also
    can be chilled for an outdoor meal. Use any or all of your favorite
    chicken parts. If using chicken breasts, the cooking time may be
    shortened.
