BEST OVEN BAKED CHICKEN



Best Oven Baked Chicken image

This is one of my favorite recipes and was given to me by a neighbor many years ago. I've been making it ever since when the weather is cool and it is cozy to have the oven on. It is a no fail, super-easy recipe and I guarantee it will please your family and friends. The recipe can also be made with a cut up chicken.

Oven-Baked, Best Ever, Juiciest Chicken image

This is a variation of a recipe from Clarks Outpost in Tioga, Texas. It's best to start it the day before so it has enough time to marinate. Everybody raves about it!

Categories     Whole Chicken

Time 2h25m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

10 cups cold water
2 cups golden brown sugar, packed
1 tablespoon coarse salt (like Sea Salt)
2 (3 1/2-4 lb) roasting chickens, halved lengthwise
1 cup barbecue sauce
3 tablespoons fresh coarse ground black pepper
3 tablespoons dark brown sugar
3 tablespoons paprika
2 tablespoons salt
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Mix 10 cups water, sugar and salt in a large roasting pan or stock pot.
  • Place chicken skin side down in the water mixture (add more water if necessary to cover chicken.).
  • Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
  • Drain chicken and pat dry.
  • Place chicken halves skin side down in a single layer on heavy large baking sheet with rim, that has been lined with aluminum foil, preferably Release foil.
  • Brush each half with 2 tablespoons barbecue sauce.
  • Sprinkle with 1-1/4 teaspoon of Rub.
  • Turn halves over and repeat.
  • Bake chicken skin sides up, basting every 20 minutes (VERY IMPORTANT) with pan juices, for about 2 hours.
  • THIS IS WORTH THE EFFORT!
  • If you use chicken parts, like breast, thigh or drumsticks, reduce the cooking time to 1 hour, 30 minutes-ish. And reduce cooking time even more if using a convection oven.

ACCIDENTALLY THE BEST BAKED CHICKEN NUGGETS EVER



Accidentally the Best Baked Chicken Nuggets Ever image

Accidentally discovered this while playing around with Chinese restaurant classics. My nugget-expert daughter loved them. I use the marinade from http://www.recipezaar.com/Sweet-and-Sour-Pork-43587 (minus the extra salt) and the flouring and baking technique from http://www.recipezaar.com/Baked-Lemon-Chicken-With-Chinese-Lemon-Sauce-194890. The chicken works great with either sauce but my picky kid just loved the chicken by itself. Infact she liked it so much I had to post the recipe. All measurements are approximate; vary the spices based upon your own taste.

pepper (use liberally)
10 dashes Tabasco sauce (or any hot sauce)

Steps:
