Ingredients
  • 1 md Chicken cut into pieces
  • 1 md Onion
  • 2 tablespoon Oil
  • 2 tablespoon Vinegar
  • 1/4 cup Lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoon Brown sugar
  • 1 cup Catsup
  • 3 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 tablespoon Mustard, prepared
  • 1 cup Water
Directions
  1. 1
    Preheat your oven to 325ðF (165ðC).
  2. 2
    Pat the chicken pieces dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper.
  3. 3
    Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the chicken pieces on all sides until golden, about 5-7 minutes per side. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  4. 4
    Chop the onion and add it to the same skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes until softened and lightly browned.
  5. 5
    Drain all but 2 tablespoons of the oil from the skillet, leaving the onions behind.
  6. 6
    Stir in the catsup, vinegar, lemon juice, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, and water. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
  7. 7
    Let the sauce simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken slightly.
  8. 8
    Place the browned chicken pieces in a baking dish. Pour the prepared sauce evenly over the chicken.
  9. 9
    Bake uncovered in the preheated oven for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce is bubbly.
  10. 10
    Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Serve with extra sauce on the side if desired.
