In a large skillet, melt together butter and oil. Sauté onion and garlic for 2 minutes, then brown the chicken on all sides. Remove the chicken to a large casserole.

Stir flour into butter mixture in skillet. Add remaining ingredients, using only half of the salt and pepper in the sauce. Cook until somewhat thickened, stirring constantly. Pour over chicken. Season the chicken with remaining salt and pepper and a sprinkle of garlic powder.

Bake in preheated 325°F degree oven for 50 minutes, or until the chicken is tender and the breast reaches slightly less than 160°F (the temperature will continue to climb after the chicken is removed from oven).

Whole baby potatoes and baby carrots (or quartered potatoes and carrots) may be arranged around the outside of the chicken and baked at the same time as the chicken, if desired.

Makes 4 servings.
