Chutney Chicken

A good old South African favourite! There are many versions to this bake, but for me the original is still the best! You can add many things, like frying some onions and peppers before hand and add when it goes to bake. Or add some chillies and garlic if you like. Or even some curry spice! You can really play with this recipe! 

INGREDIENTS

Chicken portions, thighs or drums (at least 8 to 10 pieces)

1 packet onion soup powder (I prefer white onion soup) (40 to 50 g)

1 cup (250 ml) boiling water

1 cup (250 ml) chutney (hot or mild)

1 cup (250 ml) mayonnaise

Good splash Worcester sauce 

Chicken spice or Salt and Pepper

METHOD

Put the chicken pieces into an ovenproof dish and season with salt and pepper or chicken seasoning

Mix together the soup powder and boiling water

Then add the chutney and mayonnaise and mix well

Add the Worcester sauce and stir well

Pour over the chicken pieces and cover dish with a lid or with tinfoil 

Bake for 1 hour covered at 180 degrees. Check the chicken and bake open for a few minutes more  if it needs more browning

Serve with white rice or couscous and a crisp garden salad and any side veggie dish you like 

Enjoy!
