Cinnamon chicken was featured prominently on an episode of Little House on the Prairie. Doesn't sound like you had all the other ingredients, but I'm just saying it is a thing.

When I saw this picture, my mind automatically went back to Laura tearing off the cayanne pepper label.

Ooh that does sound good! This is my favorite chicken and cinnamon recipe: https://www.simplyrecipes.com/recipes/moroccan_chicken_with_lemon_and_olives/

[-]

Turbulent-Matter501@reddit

I use a lot more cinnamon than the recipe calls for and it always tastes great.

[-]

Mrpandacorn2002@reddit

Ok making progress on a curry you need a lot more ingredients tho

[-]

I once added to pumpkin spice to my spaghetti sauce, it turned out terrible.

Sometimes, it's better to just not season something than to give it the wrong seasoning.

Plain chicken with some hot sauce > Cinnamon Chicken

skyed_driver@reddit

Why in the hell did you do that lol just experimenting or accidentally? One time I accidentally put cinnamon instead of cayenne in my bowl of broccoli cheddar soup and it was also ruined

[-]

oceans159@reddit

damn this picture is more effective than ozempic. good job op!

[-]

GDarkX@reddit

i think having no salt might genuinely be a life-threatening situation

[-]

LonnieJaw748@reddit

That’s why it’s my number one item I suggest when a conversation of Zombie Apocalypse comes up. The first thing you should hoard for your compound is salt. Like a ton of it.

[-]

EnkiduTheGreat@reddit

I've got a box full of old salt lamps in the attic. There's about 100 lb of pink salt up there.

[-]

Odd_Fly4851@reddit

Pink salt is not Iodized. Iodine is essential.

[-]

EnkiduTheGreat@reddit

I live 200 ft from brackish water, and have chickens. I'll be fine in terms of iodine.

[-]

LonnieJaw748@reddit

By pink salt do you mean sodium nitrate (a.k.a InstaCure #1)?

[-]

EnkiduTheGreat@reddit

If I'm being honest, I've probably licked all of em.

[-]

roughczech@reddit

Reminds me of the time when I was really high and instead of cinnamon, I put in my greek yogurt some paprika.

One for the sink... Sometimes no spice is better than the wrong spice. I would do salt and pepper

[-]

ZombieChief@reddit

Yeah, that's not how seasoning works.

[-]

Awkward-Equivalent-5@reddit

Ok now get some coconut cream, cumin, cardamom, tyme, some crushed red pepper flakes, and some curry powder

[-]

Boring-Taro-2529@reddit

I’m guessing he doesn’t even have salt and pepper .

[-]

YesPlease_VeryMuchSo@reddit

Salt and Pepper? Now you're just trying to 🎶push it🎵

[-]

PEPAAAAAAAA!

[-]

migsmog@reddit

Damn like not even the little paper packets you get with plastic utensils sometimes?

[-]

Mascbro26@reddit

Those are seasonings. Which OP ran out of. So they used cinnamon. All caught up?

[-]

DisastrousPepper2897@reddit

Not even maybe some onion, garlic, or herbs that you could cook it with???

[-]

mjheil@reddit

This time of year where I live there are wild onions growing everywhere...

[-]

deliciousroadhead@reddit

Yeah I have 5000 green onions in my yard

[-]

Fishstixxx16@reddit

Just don't at that point wtf is wrong with you

[-]

fermatajack@reddit

Cinnamon is notoriously not a seasoning.

[-]

realpersondotgov@reddit

Maybe he uses adobo cajun or all purpose rub?

[-]

Acewasalwaysanoption@reddit

To repeat the question, did they have a single seasoning?

[-]

Tbh half the time I just throw a bunch of slap ya mama seasoning on whatever meat I’m cooking. I get by with it as the only seasoning when I’m in a poorly stocked kitchen in the middle of nowhere on a work trip

[-]

Petraretrograde@reddit

People forget the "rub" part

[-]

MyMomsTastyButthole@reddit

He's about 112th of the way to a nice garam masala

[-]

Dramatic-Quiet-818@reddit

yes lol prob white

[-]

Hexogen@reddit

Probably has a drawer of leftover sauce packets from various fast food places

[-]

MadamSnarksAlot@reddit

No one is this white.

[-]

GibMirMeinAlltagstod@reddit

Their choices were cinnamon and arsenic. Decisions had to be made

[-]

Scared_Rise5787@reddit

Hey OP, please venmo me for a new phone screen. I punched/broke this one in anger.

[-]

BraumsSucks@reddit

No you didnt have to put cinnamon on the chicken boss

[-]

GrooveAndGravy52@reddit

You didn’t haaaave to!

[-]

No-Objective2143@reddit

Ugh

[-]

prostatewhispers1@reddit

You didn’t have to do anything bud

[-]

MadamSnarksAlot@reddit

This is just rage bait.

[-]

bosoxsam@reddit

You did not have to do this

[-]

Plus_Possibility_383@reddit

most of these posts make me think the average male poster here doesn’t attract women what’s so ever

[-]

Odd_Middle_7179@reddit

Does cinnamon actually count as a seasoning tho? I thought it was just a spice.

[-]

Room_Temp_Coffee@reddit

I promise you there were other options

[-]

SousVideDiaper@reddit

Using nothing would've been a better option

[-]

Old_timey_brain@reddit

:) I always use cinnamon in my fried chicken, but mix it in with the flour, before breading them.

[-]

MisterNefarious@reddit

Tapping into what makes fried chicken and waffles work imo

[-]

Old_timey_brain@reddit

Yes, then take each bite of that juicy fried chicken and dredge it through the apple sauce for a delicious mouthful.

[-]

butt-holg@reddit

👁️👄👁️

[-]

Express-Season-6116@reddit

You don't have like two bucks to get something to season that with?

[-]

LonnieJaw748@reddit

Or even walk down the street and steal a lemon from someone’s yard?

[-]

ZeldaZealot@reddit

We know how that goes.

[-]

Express-Season-6116@reddit

Go in a fast food joint's dining room and get some salt and pepper packets from the ketchup stand. Or a gas station hot dog condiments stand.

[-]

maywellflower@reddit

No fresh onions, raw garlic, fresh peppers, lime /lemon juice, vinegar, butter, tomatoes, - just saying, could used one or few of those of those to help seasoned the chicken with cinnamon with out the basic salt and black pepper plus other seasonings and powders....

[-]

mlg2433@reddit

You chose cinnamon over having no seasoning? You’re an absolute lunatic lol

[-]

redditrnumber1@reddit

Ew I would have just ate it unseasoned

[-]

impstein@reddit

I mean cinnamon is part of Jerk seasoning, isn't it? Or is it nutmeg.. either way at least you tried

[-]

clonked@reddit

No, no they didn’t.

[-]

impstein@reddit

Lol 🤣 you're right

[-]

Spirited-Juice4941@reddit

I heard some vintage Italian recipes put cinnamon in their pasta sauce. Tried it with my Sphagett a few nights ago and it was great.

It wasn’t the only spice tho, so I really have no idea what only cinnamon would be like.

[-]

ChoiceEmu9859@reddit

Greek spaghetti sauce is made with cinnamon, allspice, and cloves. It was the inspiration for Cincinnati style chili.

[-]

Turbulent-Matter501@reddit

One of my favorite chicken dishes features cinnamon. Yum.

[-]

CumTrumpet@reddit

A Top Ramen seasoning packet would have been a better option. That's way too much fuckin cinnamon.

[-]

Independent_Pie5933@reddit

No cayenne?

[-]

Crafty_Sprinkles7978@reddit

You think he looked between cinnamon and cayenne and CHOSE cinnamon?!?

[-]

Alsweets0609@reddit

Its condiment season now buddy. Sear it and turn the heat to low with a lid. Add whatever you can mustard, pickle juice, ketchup, salad dressing 😂

[-]

riteaboutnowx@reddit

you should have gone to the gas station and got a ramen packet or SOMETHING

[-]

Difficult_Price7132@reddit

Ew sorry but ew lol

[-]

NiobiumThorn@reddit

If you live in North America or Europe it is spring. Nettles and wild onions are plentiful in many environments, even human-dominated ones.

Boil the nettles, and look for weirdly green patches of grass springing up taller and brighter than the rest. If they smell like onions, you win wild onions.

[-]

zimrastaman@reddit

How did it taste is there any salt there too

[-]

ShortRoundFlatHalf@reddit

I beg your pardon? Cinnamon takes a back seat to no babka! People love cinnamon. It should be on tables at restaurants along with salt and pepper. Anytime anyone says, “Oh, this is so good. What’s in it?” The answer invariably comes back, “cinnamon!.” Cinnamon! Again and again. Lesser babka? I think not.
