The weather outside may be frightful but this indoor bbq chicken is delightful. Just because it isn’t summer doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy some yummy barbecue chicken. This meal comes together quickly only taking around 25 minutes to make.
It has plenty of saucy and would be perfect to serve over a bed of cooked rice. The sauce has the perfect bbq flavor too. I found this indoor bbq chicken recipe over at Sweet and Savory Tooth who adapted it from America’s Test Kitchen. America’s Test Kitchen is something I recently discovered and love it. I don’t know why I didn’t know about it before!
