Chicken is a great dinner for just about any family. After all, who can resist a succulent barbecue chicken? Even the kids will love it! Not sure how to cook barbecue chicken in the oven without it coming out either charred or undercooked? Try this simple recipe for instant success:

Begin by preheating your oven to 400 degrees

Make a simple marinade using brown sugar, soy and Worchester sauce, Dijon mustard, ketchup, and water to taste

Prepare your chicken by making several small slices in each piece of meat to allow the marinade to soak completely through

Next, boil the chicken in a pan of hot water until partially cooked

Remove from hot water and place in a casserole pan

Pour the marinade over the chicken

Cook in hot oven for about 20 minutes

For an even easier variation of this recipe, use store-bought barbeque sauce instead of preparing your own marinade.
