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

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400°.
- Squeeze the juice from one of the lemons into a small bowl, add the brown sugar, vinegar and water. Mix well and set aside.
- Slice the remaining lemon and arrange evenly, along with the figs in a 13x9 baking dish.
- Place the chicken thighs on top in a single layer, then drizzle the vinegar mixture over the chicken.
- Sprinkle with the thyme and salt.
- Bake at 400° for about 40 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink in the middle and juices run clear, basting half-way through cook time.
- Sprinkle with cilantro and serve immediately.
