QUICK DELICIOUS MARCO POLO HONEY LEMON CHICKEN



Quick Delicious Marco Polo Honey Lemon Chicken image

This dish is my own concoction. I threw it together one day because it's the only thing I had in the kitchen and I was snowed in. It was so delish I make it often now! I call it Chicken Marco Polo because it borrows cinnamon and curry powder from the Silk Route. Marco Polo took it home to Italy together with pasta at the time....

Categories     Casseroles

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 chicken (i use free range, always better flavour)
1 onion
1 fennel (alternative: soup veg or celery)
1 carrot
2 c water
1 tsp curry powder
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 lemon (juice only)
2 Tbsp honey
2 Tbsp olive oil

Steps:

  • 1. Put olive oil in a big pan, high heat. Brown the chicken 1-2 minutes each side.
  • 2. Roughly chop veg. Put everything in. Put lid on.
  • 3. Turn down heat to low-mid so it simmers steadily without boiling over. You can also use a pressure cooker or electric pan.
  • 4. Cooking time depends on size of chicken. It's 30 minutes for the small chicken I use.
  • 5. Serve with pasta of your choice. I tend to just throw in two small hands of fusilli in the last five minutes for quickness.
  • 6. If you are feeling cheffy today, put some of the liquid and veg in a skillet, add some sour cream or double cream, and reduce over medium fire for a few minutes. 5 seconds of blending will make it smooth restaurant quality sauce.
