There are days when I wonder where the hours has gone to ( has that ever happened to you) it like you just woke up........ the next minute it is 12 noon and suddenly you look at the clock and it 2.30pm,...ouch!
Not enough time to make lunch and get the kids back from school so what do make for lunch.......you make instant noodles but with this barbecue sauce all you need do is just reach into your fridge, pull this out and serve with potatoes, yam or even plantain.
Your kids would thank you for it... I hope they do...... but seriously they will.
Barbecue Sauce ingredient
140g tomato puree ( 2 small cans)
1 kg Chicken( orobo or fryer)
1 tbsp Olive oil
2 clove garlic
1 medium onion, chopped
2 tbsp brown sugar
2 tbsp molasses/ black treacle
3 tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 tbsp soy sauce
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp chili
1 chicken cube
Barbecue sauce
1. Heat the oil in a pot over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until soft about 4 minutes. Add the tomato paste, sugar, molasses, vinegar, soy sauce, salt and chili. Stir and cover, cook for 10 minutes over low heat. The sauce is ready, allow to cool before refrigeration.Barbecue Chicken
- Put the chicken into a pot add enough barbecue sauce to coat the chicken add the chicken cube, sliced onions and garlic. Cover and cook for about 20 minutes if you are using orobo but for fryer chicken cook for about 5 minutes.
- Remove the chicken from the pot and put on a rack to drain for about 5 minutes before grilling.
- Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees, Place the chicken in the center of the oven and brush generously with the sauce and bake for 20 to 30 minutes. Half way through turn to the other side and brush more sauce on it and bake.
- You can grill over a grill pot if you have one or use an oven as per my instruction above.
- Bring it out from the oven and allow to stand for 10 minutes before eating. I wasn't able to wait that long i dug right in once it was out of the oven. Don't be like me
