  • 1 slc lemon
  • 1 x cinnamon stick

  • 1/4 c. diced slab bacon
  • 1 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 Tbsp. beef broth

Directions

  1. To prepare figs: In saucepan combine sugar, water, vinegar, lemon slice and cinnamon stick. Bring to boil, then simmer 5 min. Add in figs and return to boil. Simmer 10 min more. Cover and let stand 2 hrs, if possible.
  2. When ready to use, drain figs, discarding lemon slice and cinnamon stick.
  3. Place liquid removed figs in bowl along with wine and lemon peel. Set aside.
  4. Meanwhile, sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. In large, shallow, oven-proof casserole, slowly heat bacon pcs till golden brown and they give off oil. Reserve bacon, leaving oil in pan. Add in extra virgin olive oil and heat. Add in chicken and saute/fry till golden brown on all sides, 3 to 5 min.
  5. Increase heat and very gradually add in wine mix (discarding lemon peel) in that figs have been soaking. Boil till reduced and very syrupy, 3 to 5 min.
  6. Transfer casserole to oven which has been heated to 350 degrees and bake, uncovered, 20 min, adding water if necessary to prevent burning. Return casserole to top of stove. Add in beef broth and figs.
  7. Cover and cook 10 min more. Sprinkle with bacon pcs before serving.
