1 steps

Ingredients

  • 5 lbs chicken pieces, legs and thighs are best (or breasts are what we actually usually use)
  • 6 cloves garlic
  • 1 tbsp dried oregano
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp pepper
  • 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/2 cup pitted prunes, chopped into small pieces
  • 1/2 cup dried figs, chopped in quarters
  • 1/4 cup Spanish green olives, pitted and whole
  • 1/4 cup capers with a bit of juice
  • 3 bay leaves
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup white wine
  • 2 tbsp parsley, chopped

Directions

  1. 1
    Combine all ingredients except parsley and marinate chicken pieces overnight, turning occasionally. This overnight marination is essential to the moistness and flavour of the dish. Arrange chicken pieces in a large shallow baking pan and pour marinade over. Bake in a 350 F oven for 50 minutes, basting frequently with the pan juices. When done it should be a nice deep golden brown colour. Sprinkle with parsley.
