From Ikaria, Greece. Honey & Red Wine Chicken
APlethoraofPoultry

Ikarians live very long, healthy lives.  The most often mentioned foods they felt were partly responsible were red wine and honey - hence this delicious recipe.


Ingredients:

2 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken, chunked

5 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons dried Herbs de Provence

1 teaspoon salt

2 - 2 1/2 cups red wine

3 teaspoons honey

Option:  Rice


Recipe:

In a large skillet, saute chicken until lightly browned.  Add garlic, herbs and salt and mix in.  Pour wine over, bring to a boil and let cook for about ten minues, or until liquid is reduced by about half.  Remove chicken to a serving platter.

Stir honey into the reduction sauce and pour over chicken.   I like to serve it alongside some vegetable rice.  Serves 6.
