Ingredients:
8 Chicken breast halves (or legs with thighs)
***Lemon-Pepper Barbecue Sauce***
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 1/2 teaspoon vegetable oil
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 can (8 ounce size) tomato sauce
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dry mustard

1/4 teaspoon coarse ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground allspice
1 lemon, grated zest only
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Prepare Lemon Pepper Barbecue Sauce: In a small heavy saucepan over medium heat, cook onion in oil until softened, stirring often. Stir in garlic and cook a minute longer. Stir in tomato sauce, brown sugar, basil, mustard, paprika, black and cayenne peppers, allspice, lemon zest, lemon juice and vinegar.
Bring to a simmer over lowest heat setting and cook, covered, 15 minutes. Cool to room temperature for use right away, or refrigerate in glass or plastic container for up to 2 weeks.
Strip skin from chicken and discard. Trim off fat. Coat each piece of chicken with about 2 tablespoons of the Lemon-Pepper Barbecue Sauce. Arrange in single layer in baking pan.
Bake 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until juices run clear when thickest part is pierced.
Note: You can use the Lemon-Pepper Barbeque Sauce as a basting sauce and/or marinade for skinless chicken pieces or for lean pork roasts and chops.
