Ingredients:
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp minced garlic
3/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 3 lb chicken, skinned and
1 .cut into 8 pieces
1 lb 4 oz red potatoes, cut into
1 1/8 thick slices
1/4 cup white wine vinegar
1 option: instead of the whole
1 .chicken, you can use 2-3
1 .whole skinned chicken
1 .breasts, cut in halves
Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 375F. Spray an 8" square baking pan with
non-stick cooking spray.
2. In a large bowl, combine the oil, garlic, salt, cinnamon, and
pepper. Add chicken and potatoes; toss well to coat thoroughly.
3. Arrange chicken in a single layer in prepared baking pan; add
vinegar, then top evenly with potatoes. Bake 40-50 minutes, until
potatoes are tender, chicken is cooked thoroughly and thigh juices
run clear when pierced with a fork. Serve topped with pan juices.
Lin's notes: Since we don't like dark meat, I used 2-3 whole skinned
chicken breasts, cut in halves, and then cut in half again. I also
peeled the potatoes, as Pat doesn't like potato skins. It turned out
great! I served this with a green salad and white wine.

Chicken is ideal
for weight loss
and dieting
Healthy eating is far better than strict dieting, and weight loss achieved by a change of lifestyle lasts far longer than 'faddy' diets that are difficult to adopt for long periods.
Cooking more low fat chicken can enable you to lose weight gradually as part of a a controlled and healthy diet.
