Ingredients

• ½ teaspoon salt
• ¼ cup molasses
• ¼ cup honey
• 1 teaspoon curry powder
• ¼ cup prepared mustard
• 1 (4 pound) whole chicken, cut into pieces
• ½ cup butter, divided
• ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Step 2

Place chicken pieces into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish. Melt 1/4 cup of the butter, and drizzle it over the chicken. Season with salt and pepper.

Step 3

Bake chicken, uncovered, for 45 minutes in the preheated oven. While the chicken is cooking, combine the honey, molasses, mustard, curry powder and remaining butter in a medium saucepan. Simmer over medium heat for about 5 minutes to blend the flavors.

Step 4

When the 45 minutes are up on the chicken, pour the curry mixture over the pieces, and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the chicken is no longer pink, and the juices run clear.
