This is not one of those heavy baked pasta dishes for a change. The brown pasta, apricots and the brie are a very nice combination and the pine nuts finish it off. —Janneke Verheij

What You'll Need
Ingredients
  • 2 cups whole grain penne
  • 10-12 small chicken parts with bone
  • 1 jar apricots in syrup
  • 3 tablespoons balsamico
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon all spices
  • 2 cinnamon sticks
  • 1/2 finely cut Spanish pepper
  • 6 slices creamy brie
  • Handful pine nuts
Directions
  1. Poor the syrup of the apricots, the olive oil and the balsamico in an oven proof dish, mix in all spices, the cinnamon, the Spanish pepper, salt, freshly grounded black pepper and the chicken. Let the chicken marinate for a day or at least two hours.
  2. Preheat the oven to 380f. Slide the dish into the oven and let it be for an hour and a half.
  3. Cook the penne in water with salt al dente.
