Barbecue Broiled Chicken Recipe

One of my favorite ways to cook chicken is either on the grill or under the broiler.  Below is my recipe for making some delicious barbecue chicken under the broiler.  To make this chicken you simply season your chicken with Cajun seasoning and garlic powder and then broil your chicken under the broiler until the juices run clear.  Then put your barbecue sauce on your chicken and then broil for 2 additional minutes per side

Ingredients:

1 (4 lb.) chicken, cut into 8 pieces

Cajun seasoning, to taste

Garlic powder, to taste

1 cup barbecue sauce

Instructions:

You will want to begin by coating your broiler pan with cooking spray.  Then preheat your broiler and broiler pan for about 10 minutes prior to cooking.   Place your broiler pan on the top rack.

Now rinse your chicken pieces over running water and then pat your pieces dry, using paper towels.  Then liberally season your chicken pieces with your Cajun seasoning and garlic powder.

Next, arrange your chicken on your broiler pan and then broil your chicken until the juices run clear.  This should take about 10 minutes each side.  After that time simply brush half of your barbecue sauce on top of the chicken and then return your chicken under the broiler and broil for 2 minutes.  Then turn your chicken and brush the remaining barbecue sauce on top of your chicken, making certain all areas of your chicken pieces are coated and then return your chicken under the broiler and broil for 2 more minutes.  Then remove your broiler pan from the oven and let your chicken sit for 4 minutes before serving.
