1tablespoonsugar
1teaspoonorange rind (grated - fresh or dried)

Instructions

Place chicken, skin side down, in oven pan (about 16 x 11 x 2-1/2 inches). Prepare marinade of wine and all other ingredients including syrup from pineapple slices. (Keep slices for garnishing.) Pour marinade over chickens. Leave several hours or overnight in refrigerator. Bake 1-1/2 to 2 hours or just until tender in moderate oven (350F), turning pieces after one hour. About 15 minutes before serving, put quartered pineapple slices into the baking dish; use later for garnishing; add sprig of parsley on plate. This is also excellent for serving cold because the marinade jells.
