Spoon dollops of jam mixture over each thigh. Cover dish with foil. Roast in centre of 425F (220C) oven 20 minutes. Discard foil and baste chicken with pan juices. Continue to roast, uncovered, until chicken is firm to the touch and well glazed, from 20 to 25 more minutes. Serve immediately. Great with carrots, snow peas and rice.
