Baked Chicken with Grapes

Recipe courtesy of Mags. Cooking with fruits isn't a new idea, but the trick is in finding fruits that cook well (don't end up in a mess) and also which blend well with the food in question. For instance, tried and tested combinations would include pineapples and pork, apples and pork, cranberry and turkey.

Ingredients
1 chicken, chopped into 8 pieces
small bunch of grapes
1 tbsp tarragon, chopped
1 tbsp sage, chopped
salt and pepper to taste
butter
cooking oil

Method
1) Marinate chicken with salt, pepper, tarragon and sage.
2) Brown the chopped chicken in a pan with the cooking oil.
3) Transfer the chicken and left over oil into a baking dish.
4) Squeeze the juice of a few grapes all over the chicken and stir in.
5) Add a few grapes (still on the vine) to the pan.
6) Dot butter all over the chicken and grapes.
7) Bake at 160 degrees for 40 mins, turning over halfway and basting.
