Notes

  • Tips:Orange zest makes this dish really stand out, so don’t skip. If you don’t have a zester, use the smallest side on a grater. Make sure not to grate into the white or it will be bitter.You can use homemade cranberry sauce if you want as well.You can marinate the meat for an hour or more in the sauce before cooking. This is optional, but it does add flavor.
  • Storage:Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.May be frozen for up to 3 months
