## Tips

- Season the chicken to your liking, as you don't have to use seasonings you don't like.
- Mix 1 cup of water and 1 tablespoon of chicken bouillon to keep the chicken moist during baking.
- Use water to thin out the barbecue sauce so it soaks into the chicken instead of sitting on top.
- Don't discard the juices at the bottom of the pan after the first bake, as they enhance the barbecue sauce mixture.
