Peel oranges, so there is not white pith visible. Then cut the slices out of oranges, from between the membranes. Hold the fruit over a bowl, so you save the juice that runs out of the fruit during the cutting. Squeeze the left over oranges; this juice is part of your dressing.

Take the chicken out of the pan, wrap in aluminum foil and place foil in warm oven for about 10-15 minutes. Total time depends on thickness of your chicken breast.
