- Carefully pour this mixture over the chicken in the baking dish.
- Bake, uncovered, at 350°F, spooning sauce over chicken occasionally, for 45-55 minutes until the chicken is done.

- *We like our dark meat chicken to be falling off the bone tender, so I usually depart from the original recipe by lowering the heat and cooking for a much longer time. The meat is so soft then and that's how we like it.
PLUM-GLAZED ROAST CHICKEN

- Add some heat: If you like a little spice, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili powder to the sauce.
- Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken is best when it is cooked through but still juicy. Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough.
