ROASTED CINNAMON CHICKEN



Roasted Cinnamon Chicken image

Our family eats a chicken every other weekend so sometimes it is challenging to find new ways of roasted chicken. This idea nailed it. Delicious, juicy, interesting. Tummies were full and my daughter even asked for second serving - VERY rare. Great with couscous, raisins, and peeled almonds as a side dish.

1 cup water
1 cup maple syrup
1 lemon, juiced
