SKILLET BARBECUE CHICKEN RECIPE - (3.2/5)



Skillet Barbecue Chicken Recipe - (3.2/5) image

Provided by Susan52

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 stick butter
1 small onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
1 3- to 3 1/2-pound chicken, cut into 8 pieces
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup steak sauce
1/4 cup tomato sauce
1/4 cup firmly-packed light brown sugar
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
1/4 teaspoon chili powder

Steps:

  • In a large deep skillet, melt butter over medium heat and sauté onion and garlic 5 to 7 minutes, or until onion is tender. Season chicken with salt then add it to skillet and cook 8 to 10 minutes, turning to brown chicken on all sides. Meanwhile, in a medium-sized bowl, combine remaining ingredients; mix well then add to chicken. Cover and cook 35 to 40 minutes, or until no pink remains in chicken, stirring occasionally.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: Use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs for best results. If you prefer dark meat, chicken thighs are a great option.
  • Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade is what gives the chicken its flavor, so make sure to use a flavorful one. The recipe in the article uses a simple marinade made with barbecue sauce, olive oil, garlic, and onion powder, but you can feel free to experiment with different flavors.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat: Cooking the chicken over medium heat helps to prevent it from drying out. If you cook it over high heat, it will cook too quickly and become tough.
  • Use a non-stick skillet: A non-stick skillet will help to prevent the chicken from sticking. If you don't have a non-stick skillet, you can use a regular skillet coated with cooking spray.
  • Serve the chicken immediately: Barbecue chicken is best served immediately after it is cooked. If you need to keep it warm, you can place it in a covered dish in a low oven.

Conclusion:

This skillet barbecue chicken is a quick, easy, and delicious way to enjoy your favorite summertime flavor. The chicken is cooked in a flavorful marinade and then seared in a hot skillet until it is cooked through. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as coleslaw, potato salad, or corn on the cob.
