Method

  • step 1

    Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Slash the chicken with a sharp knife and toss with the barbecue sauce in a roasting tray. Season with black pepper and roast for 45 mins, basting every 15 mins with the sauce from the tray, until sticky and cooked through.

  • step 2

    Meanwhile, make the slaw. Mix all the vegetables together in a large bowl, then toss through the salad cream and some seasoning. When the chicken is cooked, serve with the slaw and some crusty bread, if you like.

Made the BBQ sauce and used with chicken skewers. I found the sauce sickeningly sweet. Won't make again.

Yes you can make the sauce mentioned in the Tip box and freeze it, or you can freeze the drumsticks already in the sauce.

Yummy. I'm amazed at how easy it is to make your own BBQ sauce! Looking forward to trying it with sausages as previously suggested.
