Marinated Chicken for Your Grill or Oven

                                   

If you do not have a grill, fear not as this delicious chicken works just as well in the oven! 

Chicken is so versatile and at its best when smothered in a delicious barbecue sauce.  The sauce in this recipe is filled with flavorful things, starting with a jar of hickory smoked barbecue sauce with soy sauce, Dijon mustard and a little bourbon added to it.  Yum!

This is an easy recipe that works great on the grill or in the oven, whichever is your choice.  I really favor chicken on the grill, giving it a great smoky taste.  I start it inside and Bill takes over on the grill.  I don’t have a clue on how to cook on the grill and I like it that way as he is a pro at it. 

I love marinated chicken, just blend the sauce ingredients and place it all in a bowl or plastic bag and let it soak up the flavors of the marinade over-night.  Then cook it your way, and Voila!  You’ve got a great meal with little ado!  The smell of it cooking is enough to make your mouth water and the tenderness of the meat is unsurpassed.  I hope you try this!
