4 teaspoons double cream

Preparation:

. Cut the chicken into equal sized pieces, fry evenly in oil to brown and place in an ovenproof dish.

. Crumble the stock cube, sprinkle into the onion soup powder and coat the chicken pieces in the mixture until it is all used up. Thoroughly mix the double cream with the cherry jam and add to the chicken.

. Place everything in an ovenproof dish and cover with foil. Cook in a pre-heated oven at 180°C for about 10 minutes. Then turn the dish and cook for a further 10 minutes.

. Use a fork to check if the chicken is cooked through. When it is ready remove the chicken from the oven and pass the sauce through a sieve.
