Chicken with plum habenero gravy

I used chicken leg/thigh quarters. Browned on both sides in a pan with a little oil.

Heavy splash with some cheap, sweet riesling, scrape and reduce.

add:
3 ripe plums, rough chop
1 large yellow pepper, rough chop
1 habanero. I just cut down the sides

saute on high heat, then lower, add 1 cup chicken stock, some honey, some brown sugar.

simmer for 30 minutes, add a little butter.

pull chicken out, empty sauce (everything is cooked way down and very soft...could run through a processor) into a bowl, add to 1 cup yogurt stirring as you add.

You could also thicken with heavy cream or add a roux if you wanted as well. the yogurt gave it a nice tang which went well with the sweet & hot.

no pics and to be honest, it's not the prettiest food you'll serve even if you dressed it up with fresh plan fans, etc. I suppose you could use boneless chicken breasts and dress it up a little if cooking for a date.
