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.

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

¼ cup butter
⅓ cup ketchup
¼ cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons cornstarch
¼ cup vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon soy sauce
½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 (9 ounce) can crushed pineapple
3 pounds assorted chicken pieces such as breasts, thighs, wings, and drumsticks

Directions

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
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.
Arrange chicken pieces in a 9x13-inch baking dish; pour pineapple sauce over top.
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).

Cook’s Note

I usually double the sauce since my family really enjoys it. I also use slightly less butter than what is called for, and it still comes out great.
