Zubereitung von Scarlet Chicken

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Place 1 cup dried cherries and 1/2 cup dried cranberries in a medium bowl and cover with 1 cup hot water. Let stand for 10-15 minutes.
Drain the dried fruit and set aside.
Arrange 4 lbs bone-in, skin-on chicken pieces (thighs and drumsticks work well) in an oblong baking pan, skin-side up.
In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup orange juice, 1/2 cup sherry, and 1/2 cup packed brown sugar.
Stir in the drained dried cherries and cranberries.
Add 2 tablespoons potato starch (or 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour/cornstarch), whisking until completely dissolved.
Pour the sauce evenly over the chicken pieces.
Bake uncovered for 45 minutes.
Baste the chicken with the sauce. Continue baking for another 30-40 minutes, covering the baking pan loosely with aluminum foil during the last 15 minutes to prevent over-browning.
The chicken is done when the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the sauce has thickened. If the sauce becomes too thick before the chicken is cooked through, add 1/4 cup orange juice or water during the last 15 minutes of baking.
Let the chicken rest for 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
