Chicken with Balsamic Barbecue Sauce

Tangy and sweet are the best words to describe this barbecue sauce. Make a double batch, take some to your next picnic, and you will thank me.

Cooks' Note

If you prefer not to grill, the chicken can also be baked. Place the chicken skin side up in a baking dish and bake for 25 minutes in a 375°F oven. Remove the baking dish from the oven and spoon the barbecue sauce all over the top of the chicken. Return the baking dish to the oven and bake for another 15 minutes.
