About the dish

Pollo con naranja y menta is a traditional chicken dish originating from Spain. The dish is usually made with a combination of chicken breasts, orange juice, fresh mint, butter, salt, and black pepper. The chicken is seasoned with salt and pepper and sautéed in butter. The orange juice is poured into the pan with the meat and it's simmered until the chicken is almost tender. Chopped mint and more butter are added to the pan in order to finish the dish and thicken the sauce a little bit. Pollo con naranja y menta is typically served with sautéed potatoes and a fresh green salad on the side. The dish is often garnished with mint sprigs and orange slices.
