In a large skillet, saute floured chicken breasts in olive oil with the whole garlic, bay leaves and allspice berries until chicken is browned.
Remove chicken to a plate.
To the skillet, add honey, vinegar and wine; cook to reduce slightly, about 10 minutes on medium-high heat.
Return chicken to skillet, add orange and lemon juices, salt and pepper, and cook about another 20 minutes or until chicken is done and sauce is reduced slightly.

Add pignoli and heat through, another 5 minutes or so.
Delicious with angel hair pasta or a nice risotto.

| Notes: |
2022-06-29: The chicken was cut into 1” cubes. This was excellent, with the coating pulling in the citrus sauce. Served over 20% of a box of angel hair, accompanied by Romaine Splits.
2020-09-05: We cut the breasts into candy bar sized pieces and served it over angel hair pasta, with peas.
2020-07-08: Added to our cookbook.
