2 Large chicken breasts cut into 2 pieces each.  More if they are from super large and happy long living chickens

2 cloves of garlic, minced

2 Tbsp oregano

¼ cup apple cider vinegar *

¼ cup olive oil

½ cup prunes

¾ cup olives w/ pimentos

¼ cup capers

2 bay leaves

⅓ cup brown sugar

½ hard cider **

salt and pepper

 

* I didn’t have red wine vinegar which is what is typically used.  I used apple cider vinegar and it worked nicely.

** We are more of red/rose people.  But we didn’t have any of that either so I used a hard pear cider.  It worked just fine and I didn’t notice a difference between this and white wine.  

Stir together all the ingredients except the chicken breast pieces, I skip the bowl and do this in a baking dish.   Nestle the chicken into the sauce and bake @ 400F for about 30 minutes.  I served it with couscous.  Delicious.
