Blanch the tomatoes, peel them, and cut them into pieces. Heat the oil in a pan and brown the chicken breast. Add the cinnamon stick, tomatoes, stock, salt, and pepper. Heat the contents of the pan until just boiling, then cover and simmer gently for about 30 minutes, removing the lid towards the end of the cooking time. In the meantime, cook the prunes with honey, ginger, raisins, turmeric, and saffron in the water for 15 minutes, until soft. Place the chicken breast in a preheated serving dish and keep warm. Allow the cooking liquid to reduce slightly. Add the plum mixture and heat both together for about 1 minute. Pour over the chicken breast and sprinkle with the toasted sesame seeds. Serve with rice or couscous. Note: Chefkoch.de used the recipe from user youdid for this video.
