Preparation
1. Preheat the oven to 375F. Spray an 8" square baking pan with non-stick cooking spray.
2. In a large bowl, combine the oil, garlic, salt, cinnamon, and pepper. Add chicken and potatoes; toss well to coat thoroughly.
3. Arrange chicken in a single layer in prepared baking pan; add vinegar, then top evenly with potatoes. Bake 40-50 minutes, until potatoes are tender, chicken is cooked thoroughly and thigh juices run clear when pierced with a fork. Serve topped with pan juices.
Lin's notes: Since we don't like dark meat, I used 2-3 whole skinned chicken breasts, cut in halves, and then cut in half again. I also peeled the potatoes, as Pat doesn't like potato skins. It turned out great! I served this with a green salad and white wine.

Diet tips
In planning a meal plan, the important thing is to try to cut down your ingestion of fat, salt and refined carbohydrates.
Some reduced carb diet tips:
* Fiber is crucial
Cutting the carbs in your meals often leads to fiber reduction also. Check for low carbohydrate recipes that are rich in fiber to restore the balance.
* Make reduced carb bread crumbs for breaded foods.
Although you can sometimes buy reduced carbohydrate breadcrumbs, you may make them yourself by simply using low carbohydrate bread. All you have to do is toast the low carb bread in a gas or electric oven on a sheet of baking paper. When it is quite hard and crispy, grind it in your blender. Keep in an airtight jar or container.
