I didnt think it was so good but here it is:

1 chicken cut into quarters
1 tsp paprika
1 clove garlic peeled and crushed
coarsely ground black pepper to taste
4 TBSP honey
4 TBSP apricot jam (or duck sauce)
2 TBSP onion soup mix
4 TBSP Ketchup
3 TBSP Red wine

Preheat oven 375, wash and dry chicken. Rub quarters with paprika, garlic, pepper and place in baking pan. combine rest of ingredients and pour over chicken. cover well and bake 21/2 - 3hrs. uncover during last half hour.

Much easier yummy recipe:

Mix about 1/2 c apricot jelly (I use no-sugar) with 2 tsp mustard and spread over chicken. You can pour a bit of white wine or apple juice over the chicken, but not necessary. Bake uncovered at 350 until it starts to crisp, about 1:20. That's it!

either one - u use so little mustard - I would add a bit more - its just there to give the sweet jam some tanginess

easiest apricot chicken ever:

1 or 2 jars of beechnut apricot, pears, and apples baby food. (all three fruits are blended in one jar. use another brand if you like, this is the one I know and like.)

red pepper flakes

chicken

spread baby food over chicken. sprinkle some red pepper flakes on top to taste. bake uncovered.

I would pour off all the juice and fat close to the end and baste.
This makes them crispy.

I'll try. They're tightly squeezed in the pan though, so I don't know how much will run off.

They were yuuuuuuuuuuuuum! I didn't end up pouring off the sauce, was too busy. Just baked 450 covered for about 30 minutes and then uncovered until the visible surface of the wings was mostly black (I think it was at least another 30 but honestly I was too busy to keep track of the time, just kept checking). Because they were tightly squeezed in the pan, the wings ended up with the perfect balance of crisp and soft. The crowd devoured 'em.
