Saucy Chicken

The sauce is a delicious tangy sauce and takes lots of ingredients.

The other day I pulled out my Anne of Green Gables cookbook as I was reminded of my teenage years when I went through an Anne of Green Gables obsession stage. Anyway, out of it came a great recipe. I altered it a bit because I didn't have all the ingredients but it turned out so tasty that I made it again the following day. The following is the recipe that I used.



Saucy Chicken

4 chicken quarters
1 1/2 Tbsp butter
1 tsp onion powder
2 tsp minced garlic
1/3 cup ketchup
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
2 Tbsp lemon juice
1 1/2 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
4 Tbsp brown sugar
1 tsp salt

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2. Wash chicken pieces and pull of skin. Pat them dry with paper towel.
3. Spray pan with olive oil and place chicken in pan. Bake for 40 minutes.
4. Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small saucepan Add the onion powder and garlic and cook over low heat.
5. Stir in all remaining ingredients while stirring.
6. Turn off heat after everything looks mixed completely and sauce tastes good (it will taste a bit tangy).
7. When chicken has baked for 45 minutes, remove from oven. Drain off any juice. Spoon off half of the sauce over the chicken and put it back in the oven for 10 minutes. You can cook the chicken for another 10 minutes if its not cooked through.
8. After chicken is done, remove the chicken from the oven, put on plate and drizzle on the last of the sauce. Really good with rice or a vegetable side.
