Cinnamon Chicken - by Christine Ziegler-Bollum

 

Spice Rub:

2 tsp cinnamon (high oil content preferably)

1 tsp salt (unrefined preferably)

1/2 tsp allspice

1/4 tsp mustard powder

1/8 tsp mace (or nutmeg)

1/8 tsp black or white pepper

 

1 average chicken (free range preferably)

1/2 - 1 cup apple juice

 

 

Rub the chicken inside and out with spice rub. Let sit for at least 1-4

hours.

Place chicken in a roasting pan. Add apple juice.

 

Roast chicken at 375 for about 1 hr 20 minutes or until a meat

thermometer places in the thigh reads 180 degrees F.

Be sure to baste your bird every 25 - 30 minutes adding a bit more apple

juice if necessary.

 

A gravy can be made with the pan drippings by bringing the drippings to

a boil, adding some water or wine,

and about 1 to 1 & 1/2 tsp cornstarch and bringing back to a boil,

stirring sauce until thick. Strain, de-fat and pour over the chicken.

 

Pumpkin bread stuffing and a salad make nice accompaniments to this

meal.

 

Enjoy!
