Serves 4

Inflation hits all of us, but in this recipe, you’ll find one ingredient has come down in price over the years. In fact, it’s come down spectacularly. In Roman times, raisins weren’t just expensive, they were money. You could buy a young slave for 2 amphora (jars) of raisins.

2 tablespoons oil

1 chicken cut in serving pieces

1-1/2 cups orange juice

1 teaspoon salt or to taste

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

Ground pepper to taste

1/2 cup golden raisins

1/2 cup slivered almonds

In a large skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add chicken and brown for 12 to 15 minutes per side. Pour orange juice over chicken. Sprinkle salt, cinnamon, pepper, raisins and almonds on top. Cover and simmer for approximately 30 minutes or until cooked through.
