CHICAGO STYLE BBQ CHICKEN

Category: Poultry I

6 boneless chicken breasts
6 piece combination legs, thighs, wings
1 tbsp olive oil and butter
1 tsp salt
1 chopped clove of garlic
1 32 oz. Bottle of your favorite BBQ sauce
2 loaves Italian bread
2 chopped green and red bell pepper
1 chopped onion
1 box tin foil

Preheat oven or closed top grill to 325. Brown chicken parts in a slightly oiled skillet on medium to high heat until skin is slightly seared. Turn over and repeat on reverse side.

Remove parts and place in a oven pan large enough to hold all pieces with room to spare. Lower heat to moderate.

In same skillet, combine butter, chopped onion, garlic, peppers, salt and stir until onions and peppers are slightly soft.

Cutting strips of tin foil in 3 to 4 ft. lengths, lay out on countertop parallel and slightly overlapping each other. Place baking dish directly in center of foil.

Combine skillet contents and BBQ sauce directly over chicken pieces, making sure they are adequately covered. Fold tin foil over and seal at top to create a cooking pouch that completely covers cooking pan and contents. Bake in oven or grill for 1 hour. Serve in opened cooking pan, using bread to dip into sauce. Servings 6 to 8
