Chicken and Sunday dinner belong together. During my married life on a dairy farm, I'd make and bake chicken before church. — Esther Shank, Harrisonburg, Virginia

Tip

Chopped Onion Substitute

When there’s no time to chop onions, onion powder is one option. Substitute 1 tablespoon of onion powder for one medium chopped onion. For the best onion flavor, use frozen chopped onions or dried minced onion (found in the spice aisle). One tablespoon of dried minced onion equals 1/4 cup minced raw onion.

Full-Bodied White Wine

Enjoy this recipe with a full-bodied white wine such as Chardonnay or Viognier.

One of my all-time favorites from this magazine - I'm saving it online because my paper copy is tattered and stained! I usually use dark meat chicken for this dish so I have never had a problem with it drying out as some reviewers mentioned. I sometimes use the barbecue sauce by itself for other recipes.

Forgot to say: I removed the skin from the chicken and did not brown it before adding sauce, just put the sauce over the raw chicken in the casserole.

Haven't made this for a while. When i saw the recipe in my book, i had marked it "yummy"! Made it for tonights supper. I did cover it part way thru, so the thinner pieces didn't dry out. I basted it during cooking time too. Still Yummy!

What a nice sauce. I did bake the chicken covered for awhile then uncovered it to finish. I think I baked it about an hour and a half. It was very tender.

This was very tasty and easy to make. I used boneless/skinless chicken breast and cut them in medium sized chunks. I rolled them in cracked pepper and flour and browned them in a little canola oil before putting the chicken in the casserole dish. I made the sauce as instructed. We enjoyed this very much and the left overs tasted just as good. Thank you for a great recipe!
