Recipe Summary Best Oven Baked Chicken

This is one of my favorite recipes and was given to me by a neighbor many years ago. I've been making it ever since when the weather is cool and it is cozy to have the oven on. It is a no fail, super-easy recipe and I guarantee it will please your family and friends. The recipe can also be made with a cut up chicken.

Ingredients | Oven Baked Lemon Pepper Chicken Wings

½ cup water

½ cup ketchup

1 large onion, halved and sliced

¼ cup low sodium soy sauce

2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

1 tablespoon honey, or more to taste

1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

½ teaspoon garlic powder

⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper

⅛ teaspoon poultry seasoning

1 (4 to 6 pound) whole chicken

Directions

Stir water, ketchup, onion, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, olive oil, honey, flour, garlic powder, black pepper, and poultry seasoning together in an oven-safe Dutch oven. Simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until flavors blend, 5 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Place chicken in Dutch oven and turn to coat in ketchup mixture. Spoon 1/4 the mixture and onions into the chicken cavity. Place chicken breast side down into Dutch oven; cover with an oven-proof lid.

Bake chicken in the preheated oven, basting once, for 45 minutes. Uncover the Dutch oven and increase heat to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Turn chicken breast side up and bake until chicken has browned, about 15 more minutes. Let chicken stand for about 10 minutes before serving.

Serve with pan juices. This recipe does not need salt because of the soy and Worcestershire sauces, but feel free to add to your taste.

It is not necessary to cook the mixture before adding the chicken to coat, but I find that the onion flavor goes through the marinade better if simmered a bit before adding the chicken.
