Pomegranate Chicken

#CookpadTurns4 Pomegranate is a sweet, tart fruit with thick, red skin. It is considered as super food due to its excellent health benifits. Pomegranate is a best source of anti oxident also. It's one of my favourite fruit.I like to include this super fruit to my various recipes. Here I am sharing a delicious and healthy chicken recipe that I made with pomegranate juice. For an extra zing I also added sumac powder, which is a powder form of dry berries popular in Middle East and Mediterranean cuisine.
