Chicken Marbella
- 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
- 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.
