I first tried this delicious dish at my sister's house and was delighted when she shared the recipe with me. Peaches give ordinary chicken a sweet taste and pretty golden color.

Ingredients

  • 1 broiler/fryer chicken (3-1/2 to 4 pounds) , cut up
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup molasses
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped onion
  • 3/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 can (28 ounces) peach slices, drained

Directions

  1. Place chicken in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Broil 6 minutes on each side or until lightly browned. Season with salt and pepper. In a small bowl, combine the molasses, lemon juice, butter, onion and ginger; pour over chicken.
  2. Bake, uncovered, at 375° for 30 minutes. Add peaches; baste chicken. Return to the oven for 10 minutes or until chicken juices run clear and peaches are heated through.
