Tip: I put the chicken in the oven first and then started to make the sauce for timing sake. Also, you can make this with boneless skinless chicken breasts or bone-in chicken pieces. Directions are the same for both. For two of us, I halfed the sauce recipe and did three chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs.) Enjoy!
P.S. This one's for you Dani!

YUM! I am SO making this!!! Thanks for posting :)
You are so welcome! It was yummy!
I tried the recipe with just what I had on hand (i have no idea where to find liquid smoke) and it turned out great! Even my kids liked it!
Karen, you can find liquid smoke near the bbq sauces. It's great for getting that charcoal taste without grilling. Glad you liked it!
