Very good and easy! I did cook them in the oven a bit longer than stated, closer to 30 minutes and poured the remaining sauce in the pan. We enjoyed these and will definitely be having these again. By the way I couldn't figure out how to skin the chicken quickly so left the skin on and they still worked out fine. Thanks for sharing!

I was expecting my husband and son to love this but just got a "ho-hum" reaction. My husband said they were kinda bland- wished they had a more bbq taste. I liked them but prob not enough to make them again.
