Mild Barbeque "floating Chicken" Sauce

This is a family favorite! It's very tomatoey, and "saucy", and the "floating chicken" part of the title is a nickname my young daughter gave to it as she was eating it as a chicken sauce! That's because we like to use the recipe as an oven broiling sauce when it isn't grilling season.... The recipe makes a lot, probably a few cups worth, so if you do use it to sauce enough chicken for an average-sized family, with the oven-roast method I mention, the chicken may well be floating it it! Serve the extra over rice, it's special-enough-tasting to enjoy!
