South African Chutney Chicken

**Mandy**'s Note:

This is so simple to make with only 3 ingredients but tastes great. I used chicken breast fillets for this & a mumbai chutney picked up at a produce market. Experiment with different chutney types.

This was delicious and so tender and juicy. I used bone in chicken breasts. I didn't have any dark meat left which we prefer here because the white meat always comes out dry but not this time. I only had a 1/2 jar of mango chutney so I add a 1/2 cup of sweet chili sauce and 1/4 cup of mango spread. Instead of the onion soup mix which I also didn't have I used 1 medium onion and 2 tsps of knorr beef boulin. Delicious we will be making this again. thank you.

Very tasty and easy.

I have never cooked with chutney before. The only chutney I could find was mango chutney and it wasn't spicy so I added a tough of cayenne to it. I was afraid the chutney might burn before the chicken was done so I baked it covered for the first 30 minutes and then uncovered for the next 30. I used a mix of chicken thighs and breasts. I enjoyed it very much. I served [url=http://www.food.com/recipe/couscous-with-currants-and-cumin-490]couscous with currents and cumin[/url] with this, which went very together.

Delicious!!! We used Mrs Balls Chutney ordered from SA but next time I will try it with home made chutney recipe I got of this site. So naturally it was delicious with Mrs Ball's chutney. I spiced it up with cayenne too. Thanks:)
