Pour 4 tablespoons liquid smoke into a 5 to 6 quart pan. Set a perforated or wire rack in the pan. Arrange 4 half breasts in a single layer on rack and tightly cover the pan. Bake in a 350 degree oven until food tests done, 20 to 25 minutes until white in center. Breasts should be boned and skinned.

ORANGE VINAIGRETTE:

In a bowl, combine 1/4 cup orange juice, 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar, 2 tablespoons salad oil, 1 tablespoon thinly slivered or shredded orange peel (colored part only), 2 teaspoons honey, 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard, and 1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper.
