Oven BBQ Chic

Hey Guys
Yesterday i was all about food, well i certainly am still about food today as i came across this recipe that i couldn't help but share... i looooove food, lol
so yesterday i posted an article on how to prepare smothered chicken, well i guess am for chicken this week because i discovered this recipe on http://deliciouslyorganic.net/ and thought i should share before Sunday so y'all can go get all the ingredients ready before Sunday.

So a lot of us don't know how to grill and when i mean a lot of us, i certainly am included but i do love me some grilled chicken, so whats the solution? Oven roasted barbecue chicken. You can use thighs, drumsticks or breasts for this recipe.

Ingredients

For the BBQ Sauce:

1 cup ketchup (I used the homemade recipe from my cookbook, The Grain-Free Family Table)

1 teaspoon maple syrup

1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

1 tablespoon molasses

2 teaspoons Worcestershire (here's a great homemade recipe)

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

1 teaspoon Celtic sea salt

1 teaspoon powdered garlic

3/4 teaspoon liquid smoke

2-4 dashes of hot sauce

For the chicken:

1 whole chicken cut into 8 pieces

Instructions

Place all of the BBQ sauce ingredients in a medium saucepan and whisk until incorporated. Heat over medium-low for about 5 minutes, until hot. Remove from heat.

Preheat oven to 400ºF and adjust rack to middle position. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the chicken on the baking sheet skin-side down. Roast for 30 minutes. Remove the chicken from the oven and using a pair of tongs, flip each piece of chicken. Using a pastry brush, baste each piece of meat (top and bottom) with the BBQ sauce. Roast for another 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and baste the tops with more BBQ sauce. Roast for another 10 minutes and baste again with the BBQ sauce. Repeat the process of roasting for 10 minutes and basting until the chicken is cooked through and the skin is starting to turn brown on the edges. Serve warm.

Remember guys, you could always switch up the recipe.
