Step 1

Preheat the oven to 392°F.

Step 2

Heat the olive oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute. Then add the tomatoes, jam, vinegar, and half of the salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer for 15 minutes until the sauce slightly thickens.

Meanwhile, cut the chicken into pieces, rinse under cold water, and pat dry with a paper towel. Place in a baking dish or on a baking sheet, season with the remaining salt and pepper. Pour the prepared sauce over the chicken and bake in the oven for 1 hour until cooked through, basting with the sauce once during cooking. Serve with plenty of sauce.
