Easy Orange Basting Sauce

Directions

1. 1
   Peel all oranges. Chop enough of the rind (peelings)to equal 1/2 cup. Discard remaining peelings.
2. 2
   Insert your 1/2 cup of orange rind into your food processor.
3. 3
   Slice the orange into quarters and place in food processor with the rind.
4. 4
   Peel and wash your garlic cloves, then place in food processor. You can save time by purchasing peeled and washed garlic cloves pre-packaged in your produce section.
5. 5
   DO NOT use garlic soaked in oil which is sold in a jar in the spices section of your grocery store. The oil is just another fat product.
6. 6
   Add all other ingredients to food processor, then puree for about 1 minute until you get a marmalade-like texture.
7. 7
   This recipe makes about 24 oz of sauce, which is enough to baste about 12 to 15 pieces of chicken.
8. 8
   I usually baste meats at the start time, and again halfway through cooking. Spritzing the meat with a bit of water during cooking keeps it moist and will not affect the flavor of this particular sauce.
