Honey Dijon Citrus chicken recipe

HONEY DIJON CITRUS CHICKEN
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 large orange
1 large lime*
3/4 cup Wish-Bone Honey Dijon Dressing
2-1/2 to 3 pounds chicken pieces
From the orange, grate enough peel to measure 1-1/2 teaspoons and squeeze enough juice to measure 1/3 cup; set aside.
From the lime, grate enough peel to measure 1 teaspoon and squeeze enough juice to measure 3 tablespoons; set aside.
For marinade, combine honey Dijon dressing, orange and lime juices and orange and lime peels. In large, shallow nonaluminum baking dish or plastic bag, pour 3/4 cup of the marinade over chicken, turn to coat. Cover, or close bag, and marinate in refrigerator, turning occasionally, 3 to 24 hours. Refrigerate remaining 1/2 cup marinade. Remove chicken from marinade, discarding marinade. Grill or broil chicken, turning once and brushing frequently with refrigerated marinade, until chicken is done. Makes 4 servings. *Substitution: Omit lime peel. Use 3 tablespoons lime juice. Also terrific with Wish-Bone Fat Free Honey Dijon, Italian, Robusto Italian or Lite Italian Dressing. For best flavor, marinate 24 hours in a self-closing plastic bag - for easy clean-up. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
