Chicken Marbella

"While the name might suggest an Italian origin, Chicken Marbella actually traces its history back to New York City's Jewish population in the 1970s; this was and still is a classic Shabbat dinner designed to amaze and relax everyone at the table. The fatty, savory chicken thighs are braised in a tangy, sweet, and aromatic sauce infused with the rich floral flavor of plums. Served over tender couscous and with a meaty, sparklingly bright wine sauce, Chicken Marbella is how you really begin a weekend!..."
