Pomegranate Rosemary Chicken

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 25 minutes

Total Time: 40 minutes

Ingredients:

• 3 lb chicken pieces (I used skin-on)
• 1 cup pomegranate molasses
• 5 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 cup orange juice
• 1 Tbsp dried rosemary
• 1 Tbsp olive oil
• 1/3 cup honey
• salt and pepper

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In a bowl, mix together pomegranate molasses, garlic, orange juice, rosemary, olive oil, and honey. Reserve 1/4 cup for later.

2. Place chicken pieces in a dish and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

3. Pour pomegranate marinade all over chicken. Allow to sit for 15 minutes.

4. Heat some oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Place chicken in pan, skin-side down. Cook for about 7 minutes until skin is crispy.

5. Flip over and cook a few more minutes until browned.

6. Transfer to oven if you have an oven-safe pan, or place on baking sheet to go into the oven. Drizzle reserved pomegranate marinade on top. Cook in oven for another 15 minutes or until inner temp hits 165 degrees F.
