Hunters Barbecue Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Oil a tray, put the chicken breasts on it and cover each one with 2 bacon rashers. Put the chicken in the oven for 20-25 mins until cooked through.
• While the chicken is cooking, fry the onion in 1 tbsp oil until golden brown and soft, then set aside. Put the potatoes in a large pan of boiling water and cook for 10-15 mins until soft. Put another smaller pan of water on the hob and bring to the boil while the potatoes are cooking. Once boiling, tip in the runner beans and carrots and cook for 8-10 mins until soft but with a little bite. Drain the potatoes and put them back in the pan with the milk and cream cheese, mash until smooth and stir though the fried onions.
• Once the chicken is cooked, pour over the BBQ sauce and scatter over the parmesan and return to the oven for 2 mins until the cheese has melted. Serve with the mash, carrots and runner beans.

Steps:

• To make the barbecue sauce, place all the ingredients into a large saucepan, bring to boil. The reduce heat to very low and simmer, covered for 2 - 3 hours. It can then be kept for a few days in the fridge and so can be prepared in advance.
• Wash the chicken breasts and remove any sinew.
• Wrap each breast in a piece of streaky bacon and place in a baking dish/tray.
• Pour the barbecue sauce over the chicken breasts. You can then proceed to cook them immediately or they can be left to marinade for an hour or so and this will increase the flavor of the barbecue chicken.

• After the 15 minutes are up, remove the foil and baste the chicken breasts with the sauce. Then return to the oven for a further ten minutes.
• Remove from the oven and sprinkle the mozzarella cheese over each breast. Return to the oven for a few minuted until the cheese is melted and bubbling, serve immediately.
