Mom H’s Apricot Balsamic Glazed Chicken

Preheat oven to 425ºF

2lbs chicken legs and/or thighs
2 Tbsp butter
½ cup apricot jam
3 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
½ tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
2 Tbsp coarsely chopped fresh rosemary

Arrange chicken in a 9 x 13 inch baking dish. Combine remaining ingredients in a sauce pan and bring to a boil. Pour over chicken pieces. Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove foil, baste and cook uncovered an additional 25 minutes. Baste twice more during cooking time. Keep an eye on the chicken during the last 5 or so minutes of cooking as the glaze burns easily
