Gently boil the chicken for 10 minutes in a pot of salted water. Drain and pat dry the chicken pieces, then dust with flour.

Heat some olive oil in a large frying pan over low-moderate heat and fry the chicken until  thoroughly cooked and golden brown.

Combine the cinnamon and sugar in a shallow bowl.

Place the chicken on paper towels to absorb any excess oil and pat them dry.

Roll the chicken pieces in the sugar and cinnamon and evenly coat them.

Serve hot or warm, depending on the season.
