Favourite Barbecued Chicken
Recipe by:
Amanda Anne
A not-too-sweet, not-too-spicy barbecue sauce for chicken. You can of course use chicken legs or thighs instead of breasts. Great on pork chops or spare ribs too.

This was a big hit with my family. I found the marinade a little too sweet so I added some splashes of Tabasco sauce for a bit more zing. Yummy and easy - will definitely make again.

Altered ingredient amounts.
I marinated the chicken breasts in this sauce all day then fried them on the stove at dinner time...delicious though a little sweet for our tastes. (I'll delete the honey and sugar next time and increase the garlic)

I decided not to barbecue, but baked the chicken instead. I just put the chicken pieces in a baking dish and covered them with sauce. I also added one tablespoon of prepared mustard to the sauce as well. I won't be going back to the bottled stuff again, this sauce was delicious.

I made this for dinner a few weeks ago. I didn't have a bbq, so I baked it, first covered, then uncovered to get a nice colour. It got very good feedback.

Very tasty if you have the time to marinate it overnight. I didn't have honey so I did without, but it still tasted great! Used wings and thighs instead of chicken breast cause we're red meat eaters... terrific!

Excellent recipe. I cut the chicken into strips, doubled the sauce without doubling the brown sugar and honey, and added a little chilli powder, marinated them for 5 hours in the fridge, and grilled them on a stovetop grilling pan. My kids love them. Thank you for posting.

This chicken was a hit at our dinner party! I used a whole cut up chicken instead of chicken breasts, and it turned out wonderful! I increased the sauce 4X, since we like extra sauce on the side. This is a definite keeper! Everyone wanted the recipe!
