Cinnamon Chicken




Source of Recipe


(charmed)


Recipe Introduction


This cinnamon-flavored chicken is unique, and very good. The chicken and the sauce bake up dark, brown and rich.


List of Ingredients




1 1/2 cups dry sherry
1 Tablespoon cinnamon
1/2 cup honey
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
2 1/2 to 3 pounds chicken pieces (with or without skin)
2 tablespoons Olive oil

Recipe



In a medium bowl, combine the sherry, cinnamon,
honey, lemon juice, garlic, salt and pepper. Add the
chicken, toss to evenly coat, cover, and marinate in
refrigerator 8 hours, or overnight.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Reserving the marinade, remove the chicken, shaking
excess off, back into the bowl. Pour marinade into a
small saucepan. Bring to a boil, boiling until it begins
to thicken and about 1 cup remains, about 5 to 10 minutes.
Heat the oil in an ovenproof skillet over medium/high
heat. Sear the chicken on both sides until well-browned.
Place the chicken in a baking dish and pour reduced
marinade evenly over chicken. Bake about 30 minutes, or
until cooked through.
Makes 4 servings.
