Instructions
To Make Chicken
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Season chicken legs with salt and pepper.
- Heat olive oil over high heat in a large ovenproof saute pan or Dutch oven. Brown chicken legs about 10 minutes, and transfer to a bowl.
- Add shallots and garlic to olive oil and cook for 2 minutes. Add red wine and continue cooking for 1 minute more. Add prunes, capers, bay leaf, and oregano; mix well. Cook for 2 minutes.
- Return chicken to pan and sprinkle brown sugar on top. Pour chicken broth in the bottom of the pan. Bake in preheated oven, uncovered, for 20 minutes, or until the juices run clear when chicken is pierced with a fork and internal temperature reaches 170 degrees F. (Note from Tori-- while I haven't made this particular recipe, I think that I would cook these a bit longer-- around 30-40 minutes-- to ensure the meat is well cooked throughout. Use a thermometer to check for doneness). Remove and discard bay leaf. Transfer chicken to a serving platter surrounded by prune mixture and Baby Zucchini Saute.
To Make Baby Zucchini Saute
- In a medium saute pan, heat oil over medium heat; add shallots and cook for 1 minute.Add zucchini and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, shaking the pan occasionally. Season with salt and pepper.
