| Chicken with Pomegranate Pomegranates: After opening the pomegranate by scoring it with a knife and breaking it open, the arils (seed casings) are separated from the skin and internal white supporting structures (pith). Separating the red arils can be simplified by performing this task in a bowl of water, the arils will sink and the white structures will float to the top. The entire seed is consumed raw, though the fleshy outer portion of the seed is the part that is desired. The taste differs depending on the variety of pomegranate and its state of ripeness. Providing 16% of an adult's daily vitamin C requirement per 100 ml serving, pomegranate juice is also a good source of the B vitamin, pantothenic acid, potassium and antioxidant polyphenols. Overall, however, pomegranate is not a significant source of nutrients. Chicken with Pomegranate Recipe: 2-3/4 pound fryer chicken 3 tablespoons shortening 3-1/2 cups water 1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon pepper 2 teaspoons lemon juice 1 large onion, finely chopped 1 cup fresh pomegranate juice 3 teaspoons butter 2 teaspoons tomato sauce 1 teaspoon sugar Prepare chicken for frying. Saute chicken with poultry seasoning in shortening until light brown, set aside. In a large pot saute the onion in 3 teaspoon butter until golden brown. Add tomato sauce and saute for a few minutes. Add water, remaining seasonings, lemon juice, and pomegranate juice. Cover and let cook on low about 35 minutes. Taste the sauce and add sugar if needed. Arrange browned chicken pieces in the sauce, cover and let simmer 20-25 minutes. Serve over white rice. Serves 6. Get more recipes on my blog: cheftomcooks.com

| This sounds delicious. I know of only one other chicken-pomegranate dish, the Persian/central Asian dish called fesenjan (various spellings). It contains ground walnuts in the sauce. I know it as a nice dish to serve for the Jewish holiday Tu B'Shevat, which marks the "New Year of the Trees". Here's one version: Fesenjan (Iranian Special Occasion Dish) Recipe | Recipezaar
