An amazing and most festive recipe. Ideal for a friendly invitation or a more formal family table.<\/strong>
\nRecipe ingredients<\/strong>
\n1 (approx. 1,700g) chicken, cut into 6 portions
\n3 tbsp olive oil
\n500 grams small onions
\n5 whole cloves of garlic
\n2 tbsp hot paprika
\n4 allspice grains
\n2 cloves 1\/2 cinnamon stick
\n6 dried figs
\n2 tbsp raisin blonde
\n12 chestnuts pre-boiled
\n1 tbsp thyme honey
\n1 fl. tea water or broth
\n2 tbsp chopped parsley
\nsalt freshly ground pepper
\nFor the marinade 2 tbsp. olive oil 2 tbsp. wine vinegar 1 fl. tea red wine 2 bay leaves<\/p>\n

Implementation<\/strong>
\nMix all the marinade ingredients. Place the chicken portions in a glass or fireproof dish. Pour marinade over them. Cover and let the chicken marinate for 5-6 hours, or even better leave it overnight in the fridge. Remove the chicken from the marinade and wipe it on absorbent paper to dry. Reserve the marinade. Heat the olive oil in a casserole dish and brown the chicken on all sides for 6-7 minutes. We take it out on a plate. Add the onions, garlic, paprika, allspice, cloves and cinnamon to the same olive oil. Lower the heat and let them saute for 10′. Then add the figs, raisins and pour over the honey. Put the chicken back in the pot, add the chestnuts here and there and pour over the marinade. Add the water as soon as it boils, lower the heat, cover the pot and simmer for about 1 hour or until the chicken is tender. Towards the end of the boil, season with salt and pepper. When the chicken is soft, take it out on an open plate and keep it warm. Let the sauce reduce (thicken) over medium-high heat until it becomes syrupy. We check the salt and pepper. Arrange the onions, chestnuts and figs around the chicken, pour over the glazed sauce. Sprinkle the plate with powdered parsley.<\/p>\n
