COQ A CHICKEN

For this great chicken recipe you will need  2 small chickens ...that you will cut in half lengthways .
Season the chicken with salt and let the 4 pieces stand for 1 hour .
Then gently pan fry in 4 tbs of ghee until lightly browned . Reserve the drippings .
Now place the chicken pieces in a baking dish that has been sprayed with cooking oil and sprinkled with sumac
Add 1/2 cup of unsweetened pineapple juice , 1 cup of coca cola and 1 tsp of nutmeg .
Preheat the oven to 180 deg C
Cover the chicken dish  with a sheet of baking paper and bring to a steady simmer , then simmer for 30 minutes .
Turning the chicken halves every 10 minutes .
To make the gravy .....remove the chicken from the baking tray ..
Add the reserved drippings to the baking dish and remaining juices ....simmer and stir till the  mix thickens ...if it thickens too much add a little water .
