A New Take on Chicken

Janet Groene’s
Casbah Chicken

 
    Flavors of the Middle East give an exotic taste to chicken sizzled in a skillet over the campfire, grill or stove. This is traditionally served with rice. For a quicker meal, serve it  as hot sandwiches in big, puffy onion buns.

1/4 cup flour
Salt, pepper
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
4 portions boneless, skinless chicken breast
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
Medium onion, thinly sliced
2 to 3 tablespoons sliced black olives, drained
1/4 cup juice from the oranges
½ cup (or more to taste) mandarin oranges, well drained

    Spread flour on a paper plate and lightly sprinkle with salt and pepper.  Mix in cinnamon. Coat chicken on both sides with the flour mixture and brown in hot oil. Top with a medium onion, thinly sliced, and turn chicken over to brown onions in the hot oil. 
    Sprinkle with sliced ripe olives and drizzle with 1/4 cup juice from the oranges.  Cover and cook over low-medium heat until chicken is done through and onions tender. Stir oranges into hot pan drippings just to heat through, scraping up brown bits. Serves 4.
