    I just saw that very episode here at work! It was cayenne pepper that Laura put on in excess. The recipe sounds delicious!

    Cinnamon Chicken, Every time I hear the words “Cinnamon Chicken” I am reminded of the tv series Little House on the Prairie and the famous episode where Nellie asks Laura to help her cook Almanzo’s favorite meal. Laura is jealous of Nellie and replaces the cinnamon with tons of black pepper. Anyway, here is a recipe I clipped from a magazine a long time ago that brings the image of what that dish might have tasted likeif Laura had not tampered with it lol. This was adapted from a magazine clipping., I just saw that very episode here at work! It was cayenne pepper that Laura put on in excess. The recipe sounds delicious!, Great recipe. Of course my inspiration for wanting to make this dish was from Little House On The Prairie. I never have used cinnamon on a savory dish before. I did not use any cayenne pepper as an addition, though a small amount could compliment the flavor. The final product was delicious. My only tip is to brown your chicken well as mention in the recipe. And don’t put cumin anywhere near this dish.
