Chicken Marabella

Source: Jane Lukatah

This is a big recipe so reduced marinade if using less chicken. I tend to use chicken thighs exclusively.

Ingredients

• 4- 2½ lb. Chickens
• 1 head Garlic
• ¼ C. Dried Oregano
• Coarse Salt And Pepper
• ½ C. Red Wine Vinegar
• ½ C. Olive Oil
• 1 C. Prunes, Pitted
• ½ cup Spanish Green Olives
• ½ cup Capers And Juice
• 6 Bay Leaves
• 1 cup Brown Sugar
• 1 cup White Wine
• ¼ cup Cilantro, Chopped

Method

Originally from Silver Palate Cookbook

Mix marinade ingredients and marinate chicken OVERNIGHT.

Set oven at 350°F. Arrange chicken in pan, sprinkle with 1 c. brown sugar, add 1 c. wine.

Bake an hour or so, basting frequently.

With a slotted spoon transfer chicken, prunes, olives and capers to a serving platter. Moisten with a few spoonfuls of pan juices and sprinkle generously with parsley or cilantro. Pass remaining pan juices in a sauceboat.
