EGYPTIAN LEMON CHICKEN WITH FIGS
This is a slight adaptation of a recipe found at Recipes4us.co.uk. The figs are tender and sweet but the lemon and thyme balance that out quite nicely. The fig's flavor makes me think of a raisin, cranberry and a cherry all mixed together. Sweet, but tangy at the same time. A super easy dish to put together & even easier to eat! :D

ROAST CHICKEN WITH LEMON AND FIGS
This recipe is one of those "gee that looks good" as you flip through your cookbooks looking for meal ideas. When you actually do make it, the recipe, to me, is a wonderful treat. I found this recipe in a Weight Watchers cookbook. 6 points

ROASTED CHICKEN WITH FRESH FIGS AND ONIONS
This recipe looked so good I wanted to save it before I lost it. I hope to try it soon. I found it in Longo's Experience magazine where it's part of an add for Maple Leaf Foods. It's a combination of sweet figs, carmelized onion and roast chicken. It's easy to make and looks good enough for company. Tip: To get a correct reading when using a thermometer, make sure it�s not touching any bone, and is inserted in the dark meat, which takes longer to cook.
