directions

Prepare the marinade for the chicken by combining all of the ingredients in a non-reactive container. Add the chicken and marinate for up to three hours.

Prepare the barbecue sauce by placing the oil in a sauce pan on moderate heat. Add the onion, garlic and jalapeno pepper, and sauté until the onion is translucent. Add all remaining ingredients and simmer for 30 minutes.

Prepare your grill with medium heat. Drain the chicken pieces and season with salt and pepper. Grill chicken for 15 to 20 minutes and brush both sides with barbecue sauce. Grill an additional 10 minutes or until juices run clear when the chicken is pierced.

Serving Ideas: Chicken may be cut from the bone and served wrapped in a warm flour torilla.
