Description
This chicken with dried fruits is a comforting and fragrant dish, perfect for autumn evenings or end-of-year celebrations. I love preparing this recipe because it is simple to make and always appreciated. The chicken drumsticks, tender and juicy, are enhanced by the sweetness of apricots and prunes, all enhanced by a touch of cinnamon and turmeric. The flaked almonds add a delicate crunch. It's a complete and tasty dish that warms the heart and taste buds. Feel free to add a pinch of Espelette pepper for a spicier version! Serve with basmati rice for a balanced meal.

Preparation (8 steps)
Preparation of dried fruits
In a small bowl, macerate 0.33 cup of dried apricots and 0.5 cup of pitted prunes in 170 ml of water. Let stand while preparing the rest of the ingredients.
Preparation of the onion
Put 100 g of onion, quartered, into the Thermomix bowl and chop 3 Sek./Stufe 5.
Cooking the onion
Add 15 ml of olive oil to the chopped onion in the Thermomix bowl and cook 3 Min./120°C/Stufe 1.
Preparation of the chicken
Sprinkle 900 g of chicken drumsticks with 2 g of turmeric, salt and pepper.
Cooking the chicken
Heat the remaining 15 ml of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry the chicken drumsticks until lightly golden, about 7-8 minutes. Transfer the drumsticks to a large bowl.
Mixing the ingredients
Add the macerated dried fruits with their juice, the cooked onion and 2 g of cinnamon powder to the chicken drumsticks in the large bowl. Mix gently.
Baking in the oven
Preheat the oven to 175°C. Cover a large baking sheet with aluminum foil. Spread the chicken and dried fruit mixture on the sheet. Bake in the center of the oven for 45-50 minutes, checking that everything stays moist. Add a little water if necessary.
Garnish and service
Garnish with 18 g of flaked almonds, if desired, and serve hot.
