Southern BBQ Chicken

Do you have plans this weekend? Are you celebrating the Summer Solstice? Are you visiting your Dad? Maybe you want to eat some barbecue chicken with your Dad while celebrating the Summer Solstice? This recipe does need some planning ahead with the marinade. It does make the chicken tender. I cooked the chicken in the oven but it could be grilled. My husband really liked the sauce. The sauce had a little tang to it.

Southern BBQ Chicken
2 Tbsp brown sugar
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
1 Tbsp vegetable oil
1/2 cup onion, grated
3/4 cup ketchup 
2 Tbsp white wine vinegar
2 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
10 chicken legs

Directions:

1. In a large freezer bag, combine the brown sugar, garlic, salt, pepper, vegetable oil, onion, ketchup, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, and cayenne pepper. 
2. Add the chicken legs and coat well.
3. Refrigerate the chicken for 12 hours.
4. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
5. Spray a baking dish with nonstick baking spray.
6. In a single layer, place the chicken in the baking dish. 
7. Cook the chicken for 1 hour or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked.
