For best results, use freshly squeezed citrus juices for a brighter flavor. Adjust the amount of honey to your liking, depending on your preferred level of sweetness. If you don't have a grill, you can bake the chicken in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until cooked through. Serve the grilled orange chicken with a side of rice, quinoa, or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
