Another "Thoughts for Buffets" classic recipe. When the Maltenfort kids were in their early teens, they surprised Recky and Kenny with this dish for a surprise anniversary dinner. It's always a winner.
INGREDIENTS:
12 small chicken breasts
2 8 oz. jars currant jelly
1 tbsp. cornstarch
1 cup water
1/4 cup lemon juice
2 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
2 tsp. ground allspice
3 tsp. salt
1 tsp. pepper
HOW TO:
Place chicken breasts in uncovered roasting pan, large enough so they do not overlap.
Mix all other ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a boil.
Let simmer 5 minutes.
Pour sauce over the chicken breasts and bake in a preheated 450 degrees oven for 15 minutes.
Reduce heat to 375 degrees and bake 1 hour, basting frequently.
If sauce becomes too thick during baking period, add water.
