Orange Barbecued Chicken

Grilled chicken is great plain, but yesterday I decided to try something different. It turned out to be really good!. In fact, all of us liked it - even our nephew who happened to be visiting. Our nephew, Bryce, usually uses ketchup with all kinds of meats, but he said he liked the sauce on the chicken so much, he decided he didn't need ketchup!

ORANGE BARBECUED CHICKEN

2 1/2 cup barbecue sauce (Head Country is our favorite!!)
1/2 cup orange juice
1/2 cup Italian dressing
3 lbs. chicken (I used boneless, skinless breasts)

Mix barbecue sauce, orange juice, and dressing together until blended. (Note: You could half the marinade and still have plenty for the chicken. I prefer more for extra basting.) Place chicken in large container or gallon Ziplock bag. Pour sauce over chicken and seal container or bag. Refrigerate for several hours. Grill chicken, basting with sauce several times while cooking.

Of course, this recipe could be baked, too.
