Oven Baked BBQ Chicken

I created this dish for my husband when we first got married. To be honest, when we were first married, I had only 6-8 dishes/ meals in my arsenal. I would make them over, and over, and over. Whew, bless him. He never complained! He always ate what I prepared for him. He still does. If he doesn't care for something, he will kindly say "Babe, it's not my favorite." I love my husband.

This is an easy recipe and very forgiving. I actually have to admit that up until the other day, it really wasn't an official recipe.

It was inevitable, I had to actually pay attention to the measurements and write them down.

I have several friends who will not accept a recipe from me unless it is specific. I totally understand. I am a rule follower. I like order. I operate well in an highly organized atmosphere...so, I totally understand!!

You'll need:



and...pick your chicken!!

You can use any type or kind that you want. We use chicken thighs or chicken legs. We like bone-in and skin-on.



Spray a 9 x 13 baking dish. Lay chicken pieces skin side down. Set aside.



In a medium size bowl, add your barbecue sauce. Pour in your honey. Your honey is the "star" ingredient. Your chicken will not taste sweet because of the honey. The honey helps the barbecue sauce adhere to the chicken. ma'am? The sauce will stick to the chicken. oh yumm-o!



Add your oregano, garlic salt, onion salt, and seasoning salt. Whisk away.



Pour sauce over chicken. Use back of a spoon to spread sauce evenly over chicken.



Put chicken into oven at 375. Bake uncovered for 45-60 minutes. Your time will vary depending on what type of chicken you are using.



Oh..it's some good eats!
