I love this baked chicken with pineapple and brown sugar. The sauce is sweet and tangy! I serve it over rice and accompany it with green beans. This recipe was handed down to me from my mother-in-law many years ago.
Ingredients
- 0.25 cups butter
- 0.33 cups ketchup
- 0.25 cups brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 0.25 cups vinegar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
- 0.5 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 , 9 ounce
- 3 pounds assorted chicken pieces such as breasts , thighs, wings, and drumsticks
Instructions
-
1
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
-
2
Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add ketchup and brown sugar and stir until sugar dissolves. Whisk cornstarch into vinegar in a small bowl until smooth, then pour into the pan. Whisk in salt, soy sauce, and Worcestershire sauce and bring to a simmer while continuing to whisk constantly. Cook until thickened, about 2 minutes. Stir in pineapple and remove from the heat.

3
Arrange chicken pieces in a 9x13-inch baking dish; pour pineapple sauce over top.
-
4
Bake in the preheated oven until the sauce is bubbling and the chicken is browned and the juices run clear, about 45 minutes. An instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a thigh should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
