Chicken Marbella

Serves 5

Ingredients
2 Lb of Chicken pieces (I used a mix of breast and small drumsticks)
1/8 Cup Red Wine Vinegar
4 Garlic Cloves (Crushed)
2 Bay Leaves
8 Prunes (Scored)
8 Green Olives (Halved)
Pinch Salt
Pinch Oregano
1/8 Cup Olive Oil
Splash of Olive Juice
1/3 White Wine
1/8 Cup Brown Sugar

Directions
Marinate the chicken overnight with everything except for the wine and brown sugar.

The next day, remove the chicken from the refrigerator and pan sear the pieces, in a large, deep welled frying pan (with some vegetable oil) until they are brown on each side.  I would suggest that when you sear the chicken that you transfer as little marinade as possible into the pan with the chicken.

Then, after the chicken has browned, lower the heat on the burner, and add the brown sugar and wine.  Also add any marinade left over in the bowl.  Partially cover the pan and allow the chicken to braise and the liquid to cook down for approximately 20-30 minutes. 

When the liquid has cooked down by approximately 3/4 you are ready to eat.
