STEP 1
Ingredients.
STEP 2
Wash the chicken fillet and dry it well. Cut into portions of the desired size. You can cut each fillet lengthwise into two parts.
STEP 3
Wash the oranges well. Squeeze juice from one fruit. You can use a citrus juicer.
STEP 4
Prepare the marinade. Combine orange juice with olive oil, salt, finely chopped parsley, Provençal herbs and basil. Mix the mixture well.
STEP 5
Place the chicken fillet in a convenient container and pour in the marinade. It is desirable that the fillet be covered with liquid as much as possible; this must be taken into account when choosing dishes. Leave the fillet to marinate for 1-1.5 hours. During this time, the chicken will be soaked in orange juice, which will make it softer, and the aromatic herbs will open up a little.
STEP 6
Then place the chicken fillet along with the marinade in a baking dish.
STEP 7
Cut the orange into thin slices.
STEP 8
Place orange slices between the fillet pieces and on top.
STEP 9
Place in an oven preheated to 200 degrees for 35-40 minutes until lightly browned.
STEP 10
Grate the cheese on a coarse grater.
STEP 11
Sprinkle the dish evenly with grated cheese on top and place in the oven for another 10-15 minutes. We wait for the cheese to melt. Serve the chicken fillet hot with any side dish or fresh vegetables. Bon appetit!
