Fruity Chicken

I tried this recipe and it was the best tasting chicken I've ever made. I have another recipe that I thought was my favorite, but this is the yummiest chicken I've ever prepared. I did it a littie differently. I did one chicken and left it whole. I sliced onions and placed them in the bottom of my pan, and put a little extra virgin olive oil over them, then the chicken. As in the original recipe, I put some pieces of onion on top of the chicken, and poured a little extra virgin olive oil on the chicken and onions. For the liquid I used the juice of 2 lemons, orange juice, and some ruby red grapefruit juice I had on hand and mixed these in a bowl and added 2 cut up prunes to cut down on the acidity a little. I poured all over the chicken. I cooked it in the oven, covered, at 350 for 2 hours, basting every half hour, and then uncovered for the last half hour. It was so moist and tasty I couldn't believe it. This is a really wonderful recipe. .

this sounds good, but....

an alternative marinade is to mix a 1/4 cup of oil, some chives, garlic, parsley and chopped and coat chicken. Bake at 350 for 3 hours or until golden brown. It makes for a great crust on the skin.
