Nikki?s BBQ Sauce

Here’s a simple, and tasty little sauce that you can use for chicken, either on the BBQ or in the oven. I made this for chicken that I baked, because we don’t have a barbecue (yet). I can’t wait until we get a barbecue so we can test it out the right way, however baking the chicken will have to do for now.

Nikki’s BBQ Sauce

Ingredients:

1/2 cup ketchup
1/4 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp dry mustard powder
1 tsp red wine vinegar
1 tsp garlic powder
1/8 tsp roasted red pepper flakes
1 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tbsp maple syrup
pinch sea salt and black pepper
1 tbsp mustard
1/2 tsp Tabasco sauce
pinch ground cinnamon

Method:

Mix all ingredients together in a bowl, and allow to sit in the fridge (covered) for about an hour so the flavours get a chance to mingle. Then it’s ready to use however you like!
When baking chicken, I set the oven to 350 F, and place the chicken breasts in a glass baking dish that’s been lightly sprayed with cooking spray. I cook the chicken for about 15 minutes, then brush on some of the sauce. Cook for another 15 minutes, then brush on another thin layer of sauce. Then I let the chicken cook until it’s done, and brush a little more sauce before serving. This time around, I served the chicken with some brown rice.
