MY MOM'S EASIEST STICKY CHICKEN

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to 180°c.
• Place the chicken in an oven-proof baking dish.
• Whisk together the mayonnaise, chutney, lemon juice, salt and water and pour over the chicken.
• Place in the oven and allow to bake for 30-45 minutes until the chicken is golden brown and the sauce is sticky. (I spoon some of the sauce over the chicken at the 20 minutes mark.)
• Remove from the oven and serve.

MOM'S STICKY CHICKEN FROM 1972

Steps:

• Rub the chicken with garlic salt on all sides. Allow to rest for 30 minutes to 1 hour in refrigerator.
• Beat the eggs well in a shallow dish; place the cornstarch in another shallow dish. Dip each piece of chicken into beaten egg and roll in cornstarch until thoroughly coated. Shake off excess cornstarch.
• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Cook the chicken, a few pieces at a time, until the crust is golden brown, about 5 minutes; drain on paper towels.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with aluminum foil. Place the chicken into the baking dish so the pieces touch each other.
• Stir together the sugar, vinegar, water, ketchup, soy sauce, and hot pepper sauce in a saucepan over medium heat until the mixture comes to a boil and the sugar has dissolved. Pour the sauce over the chicken, coating thoroughly with sauce.
• Bake the chicken in the sauce until the juices run clear, basting with sauce every 10 minutes, for 40 to 50 minutes. Turn the pieces about halfway through baking. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

SWEET AND VERY GOOEY CHICKEN

Steps:

• In a saucepan cook the margarine, honey, mustard and curry together.
• Simmer for a couple of minutes.
• Place the chicken in a baking pan and pour the sauce over the chicken pieces.
• Cook at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for two hours- the longer it cooks the thicker, darker, gooier and delicious the chicken gets.
• Baste every thirty minutes.
• Reheat covered.

MOTHER'S STICKY ROASTED CHICKEN (CAJUN)

Steps:

• Combine spices and massage mixture into chicken, inside and out, making sure it is evenly distributed deep down into skin. Seal in plastic bag and refrigerate at least 24 hours, or 2 days.
• When ready to roast, fry chopped onions in a bit of oil to partially cook them before stuffing chicken's cavity as full as possible with the hot onions. Truss the cavity to keep onions in and roast uncovered at 250' about 5 hours, basting occasionally with pan juices, or until pan juices start to caramelize on bottom of pan and chicken is golden brown, skin is crisp.
• Make a gravy of the pan drippings, with a slurry of flour or corn starch, as with any other roast. Serve with the onions and mashed potatoes.
