This is the only thing I think I've made thats been worth posting You'll need a ceramic pot for it.
Ingredients :
Chicken legs - You can get a pack of 5 for 2.99 in Tescos. Don't use chicken breasts as they go dry in the oven
2 red onions
1 can of tomatos - plain, no herbs added.
Some dried fruit - I used apricots and prunes...but whatever you think.
3 cloves of garlic
Coriander - fresh if you have it.
Cinnamon - 2 teaspoons
Chilipowder - 3 teaspoons
Honey - a couple of tablespoons.
1 chopped red pepper
- Grate the onions into a bowl. This brings out the juices.
- Heat some olive oil in the ceramic pot on the hob. Add the grated onions and simmer over a low temperature for about 5 minutes.
- In a pan, fry the chicken in the chilipowder for a couple of minutes until the skin starts to go golden. Do the pieces a couple at a time.
Add the chicken to the pot.
- Add chopped garlic, coriander, pepper and half the can of tomatos to the pan that you cooked the chicken in and heat over a high temperature until bubbling while scraping all the chicken niceness from the base of the pan into the tomatoes.
- Add this mixture to the pot with the rest of the can of tomatoes
- Add a couple of tablespoons of honey
- Add a couple of teaspoons of cinnamon
- Add the dried fruit
- Mix it together and stick it in the oven for a couple of hours on a medium->low temperature until everything goes molten and guey.
Modify ingredients and recipe as you wish. Its difficult to go wrong when you are slow cooking something in the oven.
I accompanied it with some cous-cous and roasted parsnips. It was delicious, easy, cheap and was enough for 3 meals.
