Brown Sugar BBQ Chicken Drumettes

I made this recipe with chicken leg quarters because it's cheaper and I didn't have any drummettes. This has a sweet and tangy homemade barbecue sauce that has a lot leftover for dipping and using later. Cheap and easy recipe.

Brown Sugar BBQ Chicken Drummettes

2 cups ketchup
1 cup packed light brown sugar
2 tbs. worcestershire sauce
2 tbs. apple cider vinegar
salt and pepper
6 pounds chicken drummettes, patted dry (I used 5 chicken leg quarters because it's cheaper.)

1) In a medium bowl, whisk together ketchup, sugar, worcestershire, and vinegar; season with salt and pepper. Set aside 1 cup sauce for tossing raw chicken; use rest for baked chicken. (To store sauce, refrigerate, up to 2 weeks.)

2) Preheat oven to 450 deg. F., with racks in upper and lower thirds; line two rimmed baking sheets with aluminum foil.

3) Divide drummettes between baking sheets, and toss with reserved 1 cup sauce.

4) Bake chicken until opaque throughout, 30 to 35 minutes, rotating sheets and tossing chicken halfway through. Toss baked drummettes with 1/2 cup sauce, and serve with remaining sauce on the side. (It took approximately 55 minutes to cook the leg quarters, but just cook until they're done.)



This is the picture I took of the leg quarters I made.

Chicken Broccoli Divan

This recipe is so easy and delicious for the little effort involved. I like to double this recipe and will possibly triple it in the future because it goes so fast that there never seems to be leftovers.

Chicken Broccoli Divan

4 cups cooked broccoli flowerets
1 1/2 cups cubed cooked chicken
1 can (10 3/4 oz.) cream of chicken soup
1/3 cup milk
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 tbsp. dry bread crumbs (using italian crumbs adds a nice flavor)
1 tbsp. butter, melted

Mix broccoli, chicken, soup, and milk in a bowl and put in a 9 in. pie plate or 2 qt. shallow baking dish. Sprinkle with cheese. Mix bread crumbs with butter and sprinkle on top. Bake at 450 deg. F. for 20 min. or until hot. Serves 4.

Cream of Chicken and Vegetable Soup - Easy meal

I just made this last night for dinner and made a double batch. I panfried the chicken with my House Seasoning (This is posted under seasonings.) and olive oil. Then I cubed it as stated. I thought it needed more seasonings like I said below and then the taste was wonderful with such a rich, creamy texture. Others might find it doesn't need more seasonings. I'm a seasoning and garlic junkie!

Cream of Chicken and Vegetable Soup
Estimated Times:
Preparation - 10 min | Cooking - 15 min | Yields - 6

Ingredients:

1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter or margarine
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 can (12 fl. oz.) Evaporated Milk
1 package (16 oz.) frozen mixed vegetables, prepared according to package directions (I didn't bother and just put the vegetables straight into the soup and warmed it up.)
2 (about 8 oz. total) boneless, skinless chicken breast halves, cooked and cubed
1 can (14.5 fl. oz.) chicken broth (To save money, I used 14 oz. water and 1 1/2 cubes chicken bouillon)
1/4 teaspoon onion salt
I also added more onion salt, garlic powder, and salt and pepper to taste to give it more flavor.

Directions:
MELT butter in medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in flour. Gradually stir in evaporated milk. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to a boil. Add vegetables, chicken, broth and onion salt. Heat through.

4 tsp. italian seasoned dry bread crumbs
