Preparation Steps

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the cranberry sauce, chicken broth, Dijon mustard, soy sauce, minced garlic, and dried rosemary until well combined.
  • Place the chicken thighs in a baking dish and pour the cranberry sauce mixture over them, ensuring they are evenly coated.
  • Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
  • Remove the foil and bake for another 10-15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened slightly.
  • Serve the cranberry chicken hot over cooked rice or quinoa, if desired. Garnish with fresh parsley.

For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce.
