Ingredients

• salt and pepper to taste
• 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
• 1 large onion, chopped
• 1 cup red wine
• ¼ cup butter, cut in small pieces
• bread crumbs, or as needed
• ¾ (12 ounce) bottle ketchup-style chili sauce
• ½ (10 ounce) jar red currant jelly

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2

Scatter chopped onion and butter pieces into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. Place bread crumbs into a shallow bowl; season chicken with salt and pepper, and press chicken breast halves into crumbs to coat. Place coated chicken breasts atop onion and butter.

Step 3

Bake in the preheated oven until crumbs are browned and chicken juices run clear, about 40 minutes.

Step 4

Mix red wine, chili sauce, and currant jelly in a bowl; pour sauce over chicken. Bake until sauce thickens and glazes onto chicken breasts, about 30 more minutes.
