Ingredients

Recipe

  • 2 tablespoons canola or vegetable oil
  • 1 broiler/fryer chicken (3 to 4 pounds),
    cut up

Barbecue Sauce

  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1/3 cup chopped onion
  • 3/4 cup Buffalo tomato ketchup
  • 1/3 cup cider vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 teaspoons prepared mustard
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground pepper

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Pat the chicken dry with paper towels so it doesn’t splatter when placed in the hot oil. Brown chicken on both sides. Drain on paper towels.
  3. Melt butter in a small sauce pan over medium heat. Add onion, cook and stir until tender. Stir in the rest of the ingredients. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
  4. Place chicken in an ungreased 13 x 9 pan. Pour barbecue sauce over chicken, turning to coat evenly. Bake uncovered, 45 – 60 minutes or until juices run clear, basting occasionally.
