Preparation:

* Use whole chickens that you cut into pieces or use breast only. If using breast only you may need to shorten cooking time by a few minutes. 1. In large heavy skillet, heat a small amount of oil and brown chicken on all sides. Drain and place in a 13 x 9 x 2-inch pan. 2. In a saucepan, melt the margarine and saute the onions until soft and translucent. Combine the remaining ingredients and bring to a boil.= Simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Pour this mixture over the chicken. 3. Bake in 350-degree oven for about 1 hour, basting occasionally.= Cover loosely with foil if necessary while cooking the last 30 minutes.= Serve this with any juices in pan. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - NOTES : Can be made ahead of time and warmed before serving.
