  ceramic or glass bowl, combine the oil, garlic, coriander, thyme,
  scallions, and the chicken breasts. Let them marinate, chilled, for
  at least 8 hours or overnight. In a saucepan, cook the shallots and
  the ginger in the butter over a monderately low heat, stirring, until
  the shallots are softened. Add the chopped lemons, limes, and oranges
  with all the reserved juices and simmer the mixture for 10 to 12
  minutes, or until the liquid is reduced to a syruplike consistency.
  Add the broth, increase the heat to moderate, and boil the mixture,
  stirring occasionally, for 10 to 15 minutes, or until it is reduced
  by 1/3. Mix the cornstarch and water together. Stir in the cornstarch
  mixture, simmer the sauce for 30 seconds, and strain through a fine
  sieve into a bowl.  Add the Grand Marnier, the white pepper, and salt
  to taste. Remove the chicken from the marinade and let it stand at
  room temperature for 15 minutes.  Grill the chicken on a rack set
  about 5 inches above the mesquite, turning it once, for 10 to 12
  minutes, or until it is just cooked through.  Transfer the chicken to
  a platter, spoon the sauce over it, and garnish the platter with
  lemon wedges.
