3 tbsp cream sherry
2 medium red onions (about 6 oz each)
1/2 cup dry red wine
1 tbsp red wine vinegar

Directions

Rinse chicken and put in a heavy plastic food bag; add 2 tablespoons

Meanwhile, thinly slice onions; wrap several slices airtight and
chill up to 6 hours. In a 10- to 12-inch frying pan over medium-high
heat, combine remaining onion slices, wine, vinegar, and honey. Stir
often until liquid evaporates. (If made ahead, cover and set aside
up to 6 hours; stir over medium-high heat to warm.) Remove from heat

13-inch pan. Bake, uncovered, in a 450 F oven just until meat is

slotted spoon, transfer chicken to a warm platter. Spoon onion
mixture over chicken. Garnish with reserve onion slices and parsley.
Add salt and pepper to taste.

"A good cook is the peculiar gift of the gods. He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate, from the palate to the finger's end.
"Walter Savage Landor"


"A diet is the penalty we pay for exceeding the feed limit."

"Reality check: you can never, ever, use weight loss to solve problems that are not related to your weight. At your goal weight or not, you still have to live with yourself and deal with your problems. You will still have the same husband, the same job, the same kids, and the same life. Losing weight is not a cure for life"
Phillip C. McGraw
