Chicken Roasted with Fig, Ginger and Orange Zest

1 roaster chicken, cut into serving pieces (or 8 chicken thighs)
½ cup fig jam (I used Stonewall Kitchens Fig and Ginger Jam)
1/3 cup dry white wine
zest of 1 orange
juice of 1 orange

Preheat oven to 350F. Place chicken in an oiled roasting pan. Whisk together the jam, wine and orange juice, and pour over chicken. Sprinkle orange zest over chicken. Bake 30-40 minutes, until chicken juices run clear.

Cooks note: if you can only find fig jam without ginger, you can add a few tablespoons of chopped candied ginger.
