Red Chicken

By: SuperB 
"This recipe was given to me by a friend of my mother. I made it once for my inlaws and ever since then I have had to make it at least once every two months. They love it... I sometimes use chicken thighs for this recipe instead of a whole chicken cut into portions."

Original Recipe Yield 8 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 whole chicken, cut into pieces
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 onion, chopped
  •  
  • 1 cup tomato sauce
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 3 1/2 tablespoons chutney
  • 3 1/2 tablespoons white sugar
  • 3 1/2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon ground dry mustard
  • 1 dash hot pepper sauce (such as Tabasco®), or to taste

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  2. Place flour, salt, and black pepper into a resealable plastic zipper bag, close the bag, and shake several times to mix. Place chicken pieces into the bag, a few at a time, and shake to coat with seasoned flour; place chicken into the prepared baking dish.
  3. Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat, and cook the onion until translucent, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle the onion over the chicken pieces. Mix together the tomato sauce, water, chutney, sugar, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, ground mustard, and hot pepper sauce in a bowl until the sugar dissolves. Pour the sauce over the onion and chicken.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven until the sauce is bubbling, the chicken is no longer pink inside, and the juices run clear, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
