Orange Chicken with Apples
May 9, 2020
Always trying to find news ways to serve chicken. Here I utilized some oranges and apples I had on hand in the refrigerator to spruce up my chicken. Since I had a spaghetti squash on hand as well, thought this would go well with my sweet apples, red bell pepper and sweet red onions. This turned out to be a very tasty meal. Everything about this meal is healthy and satisfying!
