    | 1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. | 2. Sprinkle the chicken legs with sea salt. For best results, cover and leave in the fridge overnight. When ready to cook, wipe off the salt and trim any excess flesh. | 3. Heat the oil in a large heavy-bottomed pan, add the chicken skin side down, and cook for about 6 minutes or until coloured. Add the butter to the pan, and turn the chicken over to baste. | 4. Add the onions and wine and simmer until the liquid has reduced by half. Add the vermouth and the stock, being careful not to cover the chicken completely. | 5. Bring to a simmer and sprinkle the chicken with the crushed peppercorns. Transfer pan to oven. Roast for about 30 - 40 minutes or until thoroughly cooked. | 6. Whilst the chicken is cooking, warm the honey and vinegar slightly. | 7. Once cooked through, remove the chicken and onions from the pan and put to one side to keep warm. | 8. Add the warmed honey mix to the sauce and simmer until reduced by half. | 9. Place the figs in a large clean pan, cut side down, and strain the reduced sauce over the figs. Cook for 5 minutes, basting frequently until the figs have slightly softened. | 10. Serve the chicken leg with the figs and onion quarters. | 11. Add parsley to the sauce, check seasoning and pour over. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
