Chicken Marbella

Chicken Marbella, I believe, originates in the original Silver Palette Good Times Cookbook. It is a catering standby because of its fragrant Meditteranean scent and how great it packs and holds for events. Chicken marinates with oregano, bay leaves, olives and prunes. Just before baking, a sprinkle of brown sugar and dry white wine are added. I'm not sure if there are kosher for Passover capers. If not, leave them out as everything else should be available. Fresh oregano is fabulous but dried works.

Comments:

Terri: This was a very easy recipe - the chicken was very tasty. I was a little surprised how well the ingredients tasted together - who would have ever thought to combine prunes and olives! I couldn't find K-P capers so I left them out.I cooked the chicken earlier in the day in the foil lined pan and transferred it to my oven proof serving dish. While we were doing seder I popped it back in the oven to re-heat. Everyone loved it!
Leah: Hi Terri, yes, I always leave the capers out for Passover. I guess I should be more careful in my notes - I make this at Hillel for the seder as it holds so well and tastes great.
