Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Place the butter and onion in a 9x13 inch baking dish, and bake in the preheated oven, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent, about 15 minutes. Remove the dish from the oven, push the onion over to one end, and place the chicken thighs in the dish in a single layer. Return to the oven and bake for about 25 minutes.
- Stir together the ketchup, brown sugar, vinegar, mustard powder, and cranberry sauce in a bowl. Remove the chicken from the oven, and scoop the cooked onions into the cranberry mixture. Spoon the mixture over the chicken thighs, and return to the oven.
- Bake until the cranberry mixture is slightly caramelized and the chicken is done, about 20 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the center should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

SKILLET SPICED CRANBERRY CHICKEN
I like to serve this easy one-pan dish throughout the holidays, when fresh cranberries are in season! Frozen or dried cranberries could also be used, for all year round appeal. Feel free to adjust sweetness to your tastes (we like it tangy, aromatic, and not too sweet). This chicken is great served with stuffing or rice, and your favorite seasonal vegetables.

Steps:
- Season the chicken with salt and pepper, cinnamon, allspice, 1/2 teaspoon finely grated orange zest, and the ginger.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Carefully add the chicken breast halves and sear for about 2 minutes on each side. Now add the 2 tablespoons water or apple juice and reduce heat to a simmer, cover pan, and cook until chicken is done, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter and keep warm.
- To make sauce, add the cranberries, diced apple, chutney, 1 teaspoon grated orange zest, orange juice, brown sugar, and cider vinegar to the pan, stirring up any browned bits. Bring to a boil over medium high heat, stirring all the while. Then reduce heat to a simmer and cook, stirring from time to time, until some cranberries begin to burst and apples are softened, about 10 minutes.
- Place the chicken in the sauce, toss to coat and heat through briefly.
- Serve sauce with chicken, accompanied with rice or stuffing and your favorite seasonal vegetables.

Tips:
- To ensure the chicken is evenly cooked, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 165°F (74°C).
- For a crispier chicken, increase the heat to medium-high and cook the chicken for a shorter amount of time.
- To add a bit of sweetness to the dish, use a mixture of brown sugar and maple syrup instead of just brown sugar.
- For a tangier dish, add a tablespoon of lemon juice or rice vinegar to the sauce.
- Garnish the dish with fresh parsley or cilantro for a pop of color and flavor.
Conclusion:
This Skillet Spiced Cranberry Chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is tender and juicy, the sauce is flavorful and tangy, and the cranberries add a pop of sweetness and tartness. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, rice, or roasted vegetables, for a complete meal. Enjoy!
