A delightful chicken dish with a sweet and spicy glaze, perfect for a family dinner.
Preheat your oven to 225°C.
Ensure the oven is fully preheated before placing the chicken inside for even cooking.
Cut the chicken into 8 pieces, or use pre-cut chicken pieces.
Using pre-cut chicken saves time and ensures uniform cooking.
In a large bowl, combine the tomato sauce, onion, garlic, salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, brown sugar, and vinegar.
Mix thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are well incorporated.
Add the chicken pieces to the bowl and coat them evenly with the marinade.
Let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes for enhanced flavor.
Line a baking tray with baking paper and arrange the chicken pieces in a single layer.
Lining the tray with baking paper makes cleanup easier.
Spoon any remaining marinade over the chicken pieces.
This step ensures the chicken stays moist and flavorful during cooking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-45 minutes, or until the chicken is well browned and cooked through.
Check the chicken's internal temperature to ensure it's fully cooked (74°C).
Serve the chicken with rice and steamed vegetables.
Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro for added color and flavor.
