How To Make cranberry chicken

  • Step 1
    Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees. Place butter and chopped onion in a 10 x 15" roasting pan. In a 400 degree oven, roast onions uncovered for 10-15 minutes, or until golden. Push onions to the side of the roasting pan.
  • Step 2
    Place chicken in the same roasting pan, but not on the onions. Bake, uncovered for 25 minutes.
  • Step 3
    While the chicken cooks, prepare the sauce. In a bowl, stir Katchup, brown sugar, vinegar and mustard together. Add cranberries. At the end of the 25 minutes, scoop out the browned onions and add to the sauce.
  • Step 4
    Spread chicken evenly in the pan and spoon cranberry mixture (sauce) over the chicken. Bake an additional 25 minutes or until chicken is done and sauce is caramelized.
  • Step 5
    I serve Cranberry Chicken with rice....Enjoy!
