Spicy Honey Lemon Chicken

Nutritional values
Chicken breast fillet contains particularly high levels of niacin, which the body needs for important metabolic processes. For example, the B vitamin supports the formation of fatty acids. The lemons give the honey lemon chicken a fine acidity and score with a lot of vitamin C.
As an alternative to lemons, you can sometimes use organic oranges - perfect for those who find lemons too acidic.

- Ingredients
- 3 organic lemons
- 1 roast chicken (2.5 pounds)
- salt
- peppers
- 4 sprigs thyme
- 1 ¾ ozs Prune
- 22 ozs smaller potatoes
- 2 Cinnamon stick
- 4 Kaffir lime leaves
- 3 ½ ozs coarsely chopped Shelled peanut

Preparation steps
Rinse lemons, rub dry, and cut in half. Rinse chicken, pat dry, and season inside and out with salt and pepper. Wash thyme. Stuff thyme, prunes, and 2 lemon halves into chicken.
Wash potatoes thoroughly and spread into a buttered roasting pan with remaining lemons, cinnamon sticks, kaffir lime leaves, and 2⁄3 of the peanuts. Place chicken breast side down in the baking dish, brush with a little butter, and roast in a preheated oven at 180 °C / 350 °F for 15 minutes.
Add apple juice and put the chicken back in the oven for a total of 50-60 minutes more, turning chicken over onto the breast side during the last 30-40 minutes, and brushing with a little butter. For the last 10 minutes of roasting, stir honey into the remaining butter and brush the chicken with it, and sprinkle with the remaining peanuts.
Season sauce with salt and pepper before serving. Remove dried fruit from chicken; carve and portion chicken. Serve dried fruit with sauce and potatoes with honey lemon chicken.
