Hot & Sweet Chicken Thighs

I had planned to make this recipe with drumsticks and thought I had a pack in the freezer, but no such luck, so chicken thighs had to suffice. The recipe is from Pioneer Woman’s Tasty Kitchen

and was good. I wish my sauce would have been thicker like hers – I borrowed her picture since mine didn’t turn out that great.

1 cup apricot preserves

1/2 cup ketchup

1/4 soy sauce

2 tsp minced garlic

2 tsp hot pepper sauce

3 lbs chicken thighs or drumsticks

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a small saucepan, combine preserves, ketchup, soy sauce, garlic and hot pepper sauce. Cook and stir over medium heat until preserves are melted.

Arrange chicken in a single layer on a 13×9 inch baking pan. Pour sauce over chicken, turning to coat. Bake uncovered for 40-45 minutes or until chicken is done, spooning sauce over drumsticks while baking.
