Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius).

Lay chicken pieces in a 9x13-inch pan or oven-to-tableware dish. Season lightly with onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and paprika. Cover and bake for one hour.

Meanwhile, mix together the cranberry sauce, duck sauce, sherry, and honey in a medium-sized bowl until relatively smooth.

Remove chicken from oven and toss with the cranberry mixture. Return chicken to oven and bake uncovered for an additional 45-60 minutes.

Sweet and Sour Chicken
Long Cooking time?
the total 2 hr cooking time at that temperature for chicken seems excessive to me. Doesn't the meat dry out?Replies:
I hear you Natalie. I have definitely done dark meat for an hour and a half. I will double check. I think the best way to make chicken, since size of pieces is such a variable that will affect the outcome, is to test it with an oven thermometer at the 1 and a half hour mark. If it's 160 you are good to go. -

HI Rivka. I am not sure where you can find this exact ingredient in Israel. I will contact someone who would be answer that better. In the meantime, have no fear! (Not that cooking should ever instill fear.) You can substitute the sherry with a nice Cabernet, or even better, a Merlot. And if you still feel that fear, take a swig or two of them while you are cooking...
