Sweet ‘n’ Spicy Chicken

If you like the speed of the microwave oven but the crispness the broiler can produce, you might want to use both appliances for this recipe. Cook the chicken in the microwave oven as the recipe directs, then top with the spicy sauce, and broil on a rack in the broiling pan for 2 to 3 minutes.

 

Ingredients

1 cup sliced onions
2 chicken breasts (6 ounces each), skinned
3 tbsp ketchup
1 tbsp each apple cider vinegar and freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 tsp light or dark molasses
1 garlic clove, minced
¼ tsp each Worcestershire sauce and hot sauce

Method

  • In small mixing bowl combine remaining ingredients; spread over chicken breasts.

  • Microwave on High for 2 minutes until sauce is heated through.
