Ingredients 

1/4 cup raspberry jam
1 tablespoon tarragon vinegar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 (3-1/2 pounds) Gold'n Plump® Whole Chicken, cut into 6 to 7 pieces
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper

Instructions 

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Stir together the jam, vinegar, mustard, and lemon juice in a small bowl.

Coat the bottom of a large roasting pan with the melted butter. Place the chicken in the pan and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Pour the raspberry mixture over the chicken, turning to coat well.

Bake, basting occasionally, for 55 to 65 minutes or until the chicken is golden brown and thoroughly cooked.

Tips 

For advance preparation of the recipe, combine the jam, vinegar, mustard, and lemon juice in a zip-seal plastic bag. Add the chicken and refrigerate, turning occasionally, for up to 24 hours. When you are ready to bake, transfer the chicken to the roasting pan and bake as directed.
