Recipe Introduction
This chicken soaks up the flavors of a spicy barbecue based sauce, enhanced with balsamic vinegar. The sauce has a nice peppery bite, you can decrease the pepper if you like your barbecue mild, or increase it up to 4 tablespoons if you love "hot stuff".
List of Ingredients
For the sauce: (8 cups)4 cups of butch barbecue sauce or your favorite BBQ sauce
1 cup of balsamic vinegar
1 1/4 cups of Worcestershire sauce
3/4 cup of Dijon Mustard
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1 tablespoon of black pepper
3/4 cup of canola or other mild flavored vegetable oil
3/4 cup of olive oil For the chicken:
6 chicken breast halves (bones in and skin on)
salt and pepper to tasteRecipe
To make the sauce, combine all of the ingredients in a large bowl and stir well. reserve 2 cups for the marinade and store the remainder in a covered container in the refrigerator. Put the chicken breasts in a shallow ovenproof dish large enough to hold the chicken in a single layer. Season lightly with salt and pepper and pour the 2 reserved cups of sauce over them. Cover the dish with foil and place in the refrigerator for 1 hour to marinate the chicken. About 20 minutes before you plan to cook the chicken, preheat the oven to 400�F. Put the baking dish, marinade and all, in the oven and bake for 20 minutes. Turn the breasts over and bake for an additional 15 - 20 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked. Makes 6 servings
