BONNIE'S TWICE BAKED BARBECUED CHICKEN

Steps:

• 1. BRINE THE CHICKEN Cut your chicken into serving pieces, remove skin. Leave bone in. Cut a couple of slashes at an angle across the top of each piece about 1 1/2 inches apart almost to the bone. Here is how to brine the chicken. It is very easy to do. All you need is the kosher salt and enough water to cover the chicken pieces. (not table salt) I use a large plastic container big enough to hold all the pieces and one that will fit in my refrigerator. Place 1/2 cup KOSHER salt in the container and add the water, stir well, and then add the chicken pieces. Let it brine ONLY a couple of hours, then rinse the chicken, discard the brine, and return the chicken to the refrigerator.
• 2. FIRST BAKING Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Take a plastic bag, put in the one cup of flour and 1 teaspoon of salt. Mix well. Add chicken, a few pieces at a time, shake to coat. Then lightly brown the chicken pieces and place them slash side up in a deep dish sprayed with Pam. At least 13x9. (I use a deep lasagna dish as in the photo) Bake in the oven for 20 minutes.
• 3. MAKE THE SAUCE Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, heat the ingredients for the sauce and keep it hot until the chicken has baked.
• 4. SECOND BAKING When the chicken has finished baking, remove the chicken to the stove, and pour the pan of simmering sauce directly over the chicken, taking care to cover evenly. Return the dish to the oven, and bake for 30 minutes more until it is bubbling and starting to brown. I cover with a tent of foil until ready to serve.
• 5. Cook's Tip: I encourage you to not skip the brining step as it makes the meat fork tender and juicy. Enjoy!

EASIEST BARBECUED CHICKEN ( 2 INGREDIENTS)

Steps:

• Preheat conventional oven to 375°F.
• Take 6 chicken thighs and put them in a bowl.

• Mix the chicken pieces with sauce until they are evenly coated. (Place some sauce under skin for best flavor).
• Place chicken pieces in a small roasting pan leaving a little space between them.
• Bake for 40-45 minutes until done.
• Serve with your favorite rice and vegetables.
• Tips:.
• •You can use as many pieces of chicken as you want just increase the amount of sauce.

Steps:

• Prepare chicken breasts by cutting off the rib meat if you wish and rinse and pat dry. Leave the skin on. Season chicken with salt and pepper and put in the pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until juices start to appear, about 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Remove the pan and generously pour 1/2 of the barbecue sauce over chicken. Continue to bake for 20 minutes. Repeat with remaining barbecue sauce and cook until no longer pink in the centers and skin is crispy, 15 to 20 minutes more.

TWICE COOKED BARBECUED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Prepare the marinade by combining all ingredients for marinade and whisking to combine. Taste for seasoning. Arrange the chicken pieces in a large shallow, non-aluminum pan and pour the marinade evenly over, turning to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 2 to 4 hours, turning occasionally. Make sure the marinade covers all the chicken.
• Preheat the oven to 375°F/160°C Remove the chicken from the marinade and pour all the marinade into a small saucepan. Place the chicken in a roasting pan large enough to hold it all in a single layer. Cover the pan tightly with foil wrap and bake about 35 minutes, until the juices run clear when a thigh is pierced.
• Remove from the oven and add the juices to the marinade. Place marinade over medium high heat and bring to a boil, boiling for 7 to 10 minutes, or until reduced to a glaze.
• Prepare charcoal grill or gas grill for medium high heat grilling about 3 inches from fire.
• Place the chicken on the grill rack and grill, basting with the glaze, turning once, for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the skin is very crisp and brown.
• You can prepare this recipe right up to the grilling time, up to 6 hours ahead. Refrigerate. Take out of fridge about half an hour before you want to grill it and then proceed as in recipe. The sauce may be refrigerated and then re-heated just before grilling.
