JOAN'S HONEY ORANGE CHICKEN

Steps:

• Beat eggs with 2 teaspoons water. In a separate bowl, mix the breadcrumbs with the salt and pepper. Dip the chicken, one piece at a time, in to egg mixture, then the breadcrumb mixture. Heat the oil in a heavy skillet and brown the chicken pieces on all sides, then remove to a baking pan.
• Heat the oven to 325 F. Mix the cup of hot water (I usually boil it first in a tea pot or in the microwave.) with the honey, orange juice and ginger.
• Pour the sauce over the chicken. Bake uncovered in a parchment lined baking pan for 45 minutes, basting occasionally.

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place chicken legs in a single layer in a roasting pan; pour orange mixture over chicken.
• Roast for 30 minutes in the preheated oven; reduce temperature to 325 degrees F (160 degrees C). Baste chicken with pan juices every 20 minutes until chicken is a deep orange brown color, no longer pink at the bone, and juices run clear, about 90 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
