Chutney-Glazed Chicken

From EatingWell: April 1998, The EatingWell Diabetes Cookbook (2005)

Taking a minute to remove the skin from chicken breasts is definitely worth the effort—it trims off about 80% of the fat. In this recipe, a lively curry, lime and chutney glaze replaces the skin and ensures a succulent result.

Ingredients

4 bone-in chicken breasts, (2 1/2-3 pounds total), skinned and trimmed
1/4 teaspoon salt
5 teaspoons curry powder, divided
3 tablespoons prepared chutney, preferably Major Grey
2 tablespoons lime juice

Preparation

Preheat oven to 400°F. Coat a shallow baking dish with cooking spray.
Season chicken on both sides with salt, then rub all over with 4 teaspoons curry powder. Place bone-side up in prepared dish.
Bake the chicken for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, combine chutney, lime juice and the remaining 1 teaspoon curry powder in a small bowl.
Turn the chicken pieces over and spoon the chutney mixture on top. Bake until no longer pink in the center, 15 to 20 minutes more. Serve, spooning pan juices over the chicken.
