I’m a busy mom just like you, so I love easy and quick recipes!  I need to warn you!  My recipes don’t have exact measurements and all that stuff, so feel free to edit and make it how you like it!  I just love sharing with other mom’s how to make life easy.

Ok, so start with thawing out your chicken.  I like to take my chicken out overnight, then throw it in the fridge until I come home from work.

-          Preheat your oven to 350 degrees
-          Set your chicken thighs in a baking pan with the SKIN FACING DOWN (I usually cook 10- 12 pieces at a time so I have leftovers). Make life easy girly!!!
-          Cut up one medium size onion- chop it up any way you like it!  Place your onions on top of your chicken
-          Sprinkle your seasonings on your chicken
-          Pour olive oil over your chicken- not too much!  I usually use about 3 tablespoons of olive oil
-          Pour about a ¼ cup of water in the pan (not too much)  You really don’t want your chicken to not taste boiled.  You want it to cook in it’s own juices!
-          Now put foil over your chicken an cook on 350 degrees for about 60-90 minutes.  Just pierce inside of a piece of chicken with your fork to make sure ALL THE RED is out!  Yuck!
-          Once your chicken is done, pour MOST of the broth out.  Leave a little bit in the bottom of the pan- just a smidgen! (You can freeze all that extra broth for chicken soup in the future!)
-          Now here’s the fun part!!!  Get two forks and start pulling the chicken apart while it’s hot.  Just keep pulling until most of it is on the bone.
-          Now, pour about half cup of BBQ sauce over your chicken!  I like mine with a kick, so I use a lot of Sweet Baby Ray’s Sweet/Spicy BBQ Sauce and a little of the regular flavored sauce!  Mix the chicken and the BBQ Sauce until it’s evenly spread!
-          Now, place it in the oven UNCOVERED for about 15 minutes.
-          BAM- now it’s ready!

This is so easy!  I like to make this with corn on the cob or broccoli for my family!  Remember to take time to eat together!!!  Love yins!
