Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter, melted
¼ cup all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
2 ½ pounds chicken, cut into pieces
½ cup orange marmalade
1 cup chicken stock
1 tablespoon cornstarch
3 tablespoons lemon juice
½ cup green seedless grapes
lemon, sliced
Italian parsley, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Pour olive oil and butter into a 9x13-inch baking dish. With a spatula, spread oil and butter to cover the bottom of the baking dish.
  • Place the flour, salt, and chicken pieces into a large resealable plastic bag, and shake to coat lightly. Arrange chicken pieces skin-side down in a single layer in the baking dish.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes. Turn chicken pieces and bake 10 minutes. Brush chicken with 1/2 marmalade, and bake until the chicken is golden brown and fork tender, about 10 to 15 minutes. Remove chicken to a serving platter, and keep warm.
  • Reserve 2 tablespoons of drippings to a saucepan, and place over medium-high heat. Stir in chicken stock. In a small bowl, mix together cornstarch and lemon juice; stir into stock mixture. Bring to a boil, and cook until sauce thickens, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in remaining marmalade. Stir in grapes, and cook until heated through. Serve sauce over chicken, and garnish with lemon slices and parsley.
