Easy Barbecued Chicken

Mr. Food Cooks Chicken, 1993

1 hour — 4 Servings

Ingredients

3	pound	chicken (whole chicken cut into pieces)
18	ounce	barbecue sauce [1] (bottled or home-made)

Instructions

Heat oven to 350F. Place the chicken in a broiler-proof roasting pan and bake for 30 minutes; pour off the liquid. Pour the barbecue sauce over the chicken, distributing it evenly, then bake for another 20 to 30 minutes, or until the chicken is fork-tender and no pink remains, basting occadionally. Turn the oven to broil and leave the chicken under the broiler for 3 to 5 minutes to brown slightly. Serve immediately.

Notes

For a simple summer barbecue: instead of putting the chicken under the broiler for 3 to 5 minutes after baking, place it on the grill for a few minutes, until browned.
