Receta Sweet and Tangy BBQ Sauce
I love making BBQ sauces… this one is a favorite… quick and easy.. I like to make it up and store it in the fridge.. it’s great to slather.. like that word?? … slather on chicken breasts or pork chops.. I use it in skillet dishes… all kinds of ways.
It also makes a great gift… going to a BBQ or house warming.. bring a jar… tie a cute tag on it.. maybe include a basting brush… a delicious gift… anyone would love.
TIPS
I like to finely dice my onion in my mini food processor… a great little machine.. makes quick work of things like this.
The recipe doesn’t include salt.. and that’s not an omission.. it really isn’t needed.. the ketchup has more than enough salt in it.
I buy a pack of little apple juice bottles.. it’s just enough for recipes like this.. also good for a fill in juice when you run out.. a good thing to keep in the cupboard.
If you do slather it on your boneless skinless chicken breast.. and don’t want to grill it… you can bake it in your oven…. preheat your oven to 400 degrees… line a pan with non-stick foil and brush BBQ sauce generously all over it. Bake it for about 20 minutes or until cooked through… serve with mashed potatoes and a veggie …makes a great quick dinner! Recipe: Sweet and Tangy BBQ Sauce
