Orange Carrots

I cannot remember where we found this recipe but we made it for a "little Christmas Eve" dinner and they were yummy... and we only had one serving of left overs!


INGREDIENTS
3 tsp of Orange rind
1.5 cups of slivered almonds
4 TSBP Butter
5 T Brown Sugar
6 tsp Cornstarch
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 t. cinnamon
1/2 t. nutmeg
3 cups Orange Juice
3 lbs of carrots, baby or stripped (we used stripped, which was a lot of work)

Directions:
1) Saute almonds in butter for 5 minutes, remove from pan
2) Combine Brown Sugar, Cornstarch, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg in large frying pan, add juice and rind and cook stirring constantly until slightly thicker and clear. Add Almonds
3 ) Serve over hot cooked carrots.

I cannot remember how many servings it made because we tripled it for our crowd. It is tasty and easy to reheat.

Easy Chicken Wrapped Bacon

I only had chicken on hand for dinner tonight and went through a couple of potential recipes, then my mouth started watering as I thought of bacon wrapped chicken. I googled a recipe and found the following. It was an easy and quick recipe.

Worcestershire sauce
Chicken
Peppered bacon (I just had regular)
Salt and Pepper (which I decided not to use and see how it turned out- didn't need it)

Cover Chicken in Worcestershire then wrap the chicken with bacon. Put toothpicks in to hold bacon in place. Grill.

I didn't want to go grill outside so I put it in the oven and baked it @ 350 for 40 minutes, then Broiled it to make the bacon crispy. The insides were moist the outsides were dry. Any advice about grilling chicken in the oven?
