I make this chicken almost every Shabbos, but I use orange juice instead of pomegranate juice and it comes out delicious.

I saw in the comments that someone wrote she used this on a roast, so I made the recipe with both chicken and a roast to compare. While both were delicious, the vote here was definitely that it is better on a roast!
