I saw the original "Cars" but took a pass on the sequel. And as most

      Title: Lightning McQueen's Balsamic Motor Oil Chicken
 Categories: Poultry, Herbs, Citrus
      Yield: 8 Servings
 
      8    Chicken legs; skinned
    1/3 c  Orange marmalade *
      1 tb Olive oil
    1/3 c  Orange juice
      1 tb Orange zest
      2    Sprigs fresh rosemary

      1 c  Balsamic vinegar
 
  * may substitute no-sugar-added orange marmalade
  
  Preheat oven 350øF/175øC
  
  Heat sauté pan over medium high heat and add olive oil.
  Season chicken legs with salt and pepper and brown on each
  side for 3-5 minutes. Remove chicken and set aside.
  
  In the same sauté pan, add balsamic vinegar, orange
  marmalade, sprigs of rosemary, zest and juice of the
  orange. Cook for approximately 5 minutes over medium heat
  to reduce the sauce. Make sure you stir it.
  
  Place chicken back in pan and coat with sauce. If your
  sauté pan has a heat resistant handle go ahead and put in
  your preheated 350øF/175øC oven. If not, place coated
  chicken on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake for
  25-30 minutes.
  
  Take out of the oven and let cool for 10 minutes. Enjoy!
