First, you would need a large pan to melt the butter in and place it on medium heat. Then add the chicken legs and thighs and stir in slowly. Allow for the chicken to reach a brownish color before proceeding to the next step. Once it darkens to a deep brownish color, you can now add the pure organic Canadian maple sugar, chicken stock, rosemary, salt and pepper to taste. Let it simmer for about 15 minutes. Constantly check and turn the chicken to each side to make sure that these are well cooked. You will notice that after a couple of minutes the sauce will begin to thicken. Add some more pepper and add the apple cider vinegar after 15 minutes. Taste the sweetness and the sourness and add vinegar or maple syrup as needed.  You do not need to use an oven for this dish.

This dish is very healthy because it has all the natural protein from the chicken, the antioxidants that come with the maple syrup and the flavor from the herb used, which is the rosemary. It is a nice and interesting dish, one that is not usually served in any restaurants or household.  It is very easy to make so trying this recipe out would be a breeze. Now, you can use maple syrup not just as the constant partner to your pancake but in other dishes like this chicken meal as well.

Chocolates are treats that anyone would like to receive.   But instead of getting those common variants for that special someone, why not give maple chocolates?   Maple chocolate  are made by either infusing the chocolate mixture with maple syrup or by encasing maple cream with chocolate.   Either way, these delights are a sure way to make someone happy.
