Chicken breast sprinkled with curry powder and then marinated in orange juice. (1/4 - 1 tbs of curry to 1/4 cup OJ...vary to your own taste). Bake chicken in sauce at 350 for 45 minute to an hour. Pour OJ into saucepan and mix in a cornstarch slurry; heat to boiling and stir until sauce thickens.

Bone-in pork chops seasoned with salt and pepper. Layer thin sliced potato and onion on top. Mix 1 can cream of mushroom soup with half a can milk and pour into crockpot. Cook on low for 8 hours.

Chicken marinated for a few hours (or all day) in orange juice and curry powder. (I use 1/4 cup oj and 1 tbs curry but I like a strong curry flavour). Whisk a little cornstarch into the OJ before baking to thicken the sauce (or not if you prefer a liquid sauce to a glaze).
