Oven-baked Chicken in Maple Barbecue Sauce
Although the chicken does take about 50 minutes to cook, the actual work involved takes no more than 5 minutes.
Serves 4
Ingredients
4 chicken thighs and 4 drumsticks, or a chicken jointed into 8
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 dessertspoon lemon juice
1 medium onion, peeled and finely chopped
salt and freshly milled black pepper
For the sauce:
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
3 fl oz (75 ml) red wine
4 tablespoons Japanese soy sauce
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 heaped tablespoon tomato pur茅e
1 heaped teaspoon ground ginger
1 heaped teaspoon mustard powder
2 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
1陆 teaspoons Tabasco sauce
To finish:
2 fl oz (55 ml) red wine
a few sprigs watercress
You will also need a flameproof shallow roasting tin, measuring 12 x 8 x 1戮 inches (30 x 20 x 4.5 cm).
First of all mix the olive oil with the lemon juice, then place the chicken joints in the roasting tin with the chopped onion tucked amongst them. Season with a little salt and freshly milled black pepper, then brush the chicken pieces with the oil and lemon juice. You can, if you like, do this well in advance, just cover it with clingfilm and leave in the fridge.
Then, when you're ready to cook the chicken, pre-heat the oven to gas mark 6, 400掳F (200掳C), then pop the chicken in on a high shelf and cook for 25 minutes exactly. Meanwhile, combine all the sauce ingredients in a jug and, using a small whisk, blend everything thoroughly. Then, when the 25 minutes are up, remove the roasting tin from the oven, pour off any surplus fat from the corner of the tin and pour the sauce all over, giving everything a good coating.
Now back it goes into the oven for about another 25 minutes, and you will need to baste it twice during this time. After that, remove the roasting tin from the oven and place it over direct heat turned to medium. Then pour in the extra 2 fl oz (55 ml) of red wine, stir it into the sauce and let it bubble for about 1 minute. Then serve the chicken with the sauce spooned over. Garnish with a few sprigs of watercress.

Here are gobs of recipes for baked chicken:
http://www.cooks.com/rec/search?q=baked+鈥?/a>
Ingredients:
Chicken:
1 3 1/2-pound whole chicken
2 carrots, trimmed and peeled
2 onions, trimmed, peeled, and quartered
2 stalks celery, trimmed
40 cloves garlic, about 2 heads (peeled and trimmed)
2 lemons
1 tablespoon Bell's seasoning or Old Bay seasoning
1 cup apple cider or white wine
1 cup chicken broth
Sauce:
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup coarsely chopped pecans
1/2 cup dried cranberries
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup baking liquid
1/2 cup whipping cream
1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper, or to taste
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper, or to tastedash bottled hot pepper sauce
Method
Chicken: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Place chicken on rack in 13x9-inch baking pan. Place the carrots, onions, celery, and garlic in the bottom of the pan. Cut the zest off the lemons (try to cut it off as thinly as possible so you won't get much of the white pith) and place it in the cavity of the chicken. Rub the chicken all over with the Bell's seasoning. Pour the cider and chicken broth in the pan. Bake for about 2 to 2 1/2 hours or until the skin is crisp, the legs move easily in their sockets, and the juices run clear. Sauce: Strain the baking liquid into a medium bowl and measure 1 cup liquid. Reserve. Melt the butter in a medium saucepan. Add the pecans and dried cranberries and saute for 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in the flour and cook until the mixture smells nutty, being careful not to let the mixture burn. Add the reserved 1 cup baking liquid, whisking constantly to prevent lumps. Slowly add the cream and allow mixture to thicken, continuing to whisk. Season with salt, white pepper, black pepper, and a dash of hot sauce.
Notes: Presentation: Cut the wings and legs from the chicken and place on a serving platter. Carve the breast meat into slices and place on the platter; add vegetables, if you like. Pour some of the sauce over the chicken and serve with a plate of cornbread, garlic mashed potatoes and a salad with a good garlicky dressing.
Number of servings: 4
This would work equally well on a preheated 180C oven.
