I really wanted to make the chicken from KBD, but to get the juice and syrup here is expensive, especially since I'm having alot of people and would need to double or triple the sauce. So I looked online and saw this recipe:

Roasted Pomegranate Chicken Recipe

This is a favorite Rosh Hashanah dish of Moroccan Jews. The tangy flavor of pomegranates infuses the sauce for the chicken
.
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 50 minutes

Ingredients:
1/4 cup olive oil
1 Tablespoon minced garlic
1 (3 1/2 to 4-pound) chicken, quartered
1 pomegranate, halved
1/4 cup dry white wine
Juice of 1 lemon
1 Tablespoon cinnamon sugar
Salt and pepper
Preparation:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

In a cup, mix oil and garlic. Brush garlic oil over chicken.

Place chicken in a shallow baking dish. Drizzle any remaining oil over chicken. Bake in preheated oven for 45 minutes, basting several times with pan juices, until skin is browned and juices run clear when a thigh is pierced at thickest part with a fork.

Remove 1 tablespoon seeds from pomegranates. Set aside for garnish. Squeeze juice form remaining pomegranate through a sieve into a small bowl.

In a small nonreactive saucepan, mix pomegranate juice, wine, lemon juice, and cinnamon sugar. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low and cook 5 minutes. Season sauce with salt and pepper to taste.

Transfer roasted chicken to a serving platter and pierce each piece several times. Pour sauce over chicken. Garnish with pomegranate seeds and serve at room temperature.

Yield: 4 servings
