Old Ladies On A Bus ( chicken recipe)
What a name for a recipe! This one is from ATLANTA COOKNOTES, a Jr. League of Atlanta cookbook.
This recipe was developed from a conversation overheard between two old ladies on a bus. It was then published it in the above cookbook.
Carol found this recipe. She's great finding hidden gems-
Ingredients:
1/3 cup orange marmalade
1/3 cup spicy bbq sauce
2 Tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 Tablespoons lemon juice
2 pounds chicken pieces
salt and pepper
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Combine the marmalade, bbq sauce, Worcestershire sauce and them lemon juice in a bowl and mix well.
Prepare your 9 X 13 inch pan with cooking spray- the original recipe
used aluminum foil, The spray worked fine, didn't have anything stick.
Place the chicken in the prepared pan and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Pour the sauce over the chicken and bake one hour- baste it once in awhile.
The original recipe increased the oven to 400 degrees and baked it for another 15 minutes. I only cooked for the hour and thought baking for the additional time would dry it out. I made sure the internal temp. of the chicken was 165 degrees, using my meat thermometer
Simple, easy and good- Gabe and I both really liked it.
Oh, and wait till I put up the recipe for the potatoes we had with the chicken! Talk about another super easy recipe and wow are they good!

Thanks Dawn- so easy and good!
DeleteLinda, this recipe definitely calls my name. Thanks for sharing the great picture and the recipe.
ReplyDeleteSame here Angela. That's why it probably caught my eye. Thanks for stopping by
DeleteThe name of this recipe makes me smile-and your photo of the recipe is making me DROOL! It looks amazing-I've gotta give that a try.
ReplyDeleteI've been known to give a recipe to someone from memory in the grocery check out line........I'd better look around and pay attention to who's listening-I may see the recipe on line with the title "Old Lady At The Grocery Store Cookies" :)
Hey Linda you know me-give me a recipe mission and I'll find all kinds........tell me to find something in this house and it's an impossible mission! Hahahahaha.
Thanks for your super review and I can't WAIT to see what's up with those potatoes-they look delicious.
Carol- remember last winter when I told you about the lady in Walmart who picked up one of the mixes ( Pillsbury Lemonade) that we made cookies with? She was going to make cupcakes and I told her I made cookies with the mix and here I am in walmart, not having the recipe but telling her all about it and the best I could do was get her to a link for the recipe.
DeleteWonder if they will call me OLD LADY WITH THE LINK?
OMG HAHAHAHAHA Linda-well-we COULD be called worse..........right?????????? :)
DeleteI have made a recipe very similar to this, only it didn't include the bbq sauce or the lemon juice. It is a favorite of mine. The one I use, just cooks the chicken in a fry pan, but it is delicious. I am drooling now thinking about it, so I may have to make it soon. I always made extra sauce to serve over rice. The sauce it so good.
ReplyDeleteThe name of the recipe makes me smile. Long long ago, I had a cookbook called the "Myra Breckenridge" cookbook, and it had some very strange names for the recipes. Carol, you made me laugh with your Grocery Store Old Lady .
Linda, your pictures are amazing. Some of them are so good, you can just see the juicy meat.
Thanks for this.....I must make this soon
The recipe you sent me is really close to this. How long have you made this? I never heard of it till Carol found it.
DeleteThis name is hilarious and immediately wondered, "why is it called that?' Looking forward to the potatoes!
ReplyDeleteThank you for swinging by and linking this week, Linda!
Michelle- I had to make this one. Loved the name and it was something easy to make.
DeleteI always party at the SEE YOU IN THE GUMBO and will try to be on time this week for the party!
Great name for a dish, and as soon as I see orange marmalade in the ingredients, I'm hooked. I think that was very wise not to add the extra cooking time. Visiting from See Ya in the Gumbo.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for stopping by.
DeleteThis is the second time I used orange marmalade in a recipe. It's sure going to be a staple in the house from now on!
I remember this recipe. I love the photo, the chicken looks fabulous!
ReplyDeleteThanks to Carol I got to make it. Thanks Cyndy
Deletethis looks so good I hope it works with regular barbeque sauce, cant wait for the potato recipe. Elaine
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you can Elaine. Let me know if you made it. Hope you like it as much as we did. It's such and easy recipe.
DeleteI can't wait to try this.
ReplyDeleteDottie- you can use the low sugar orange marmalade, bet it will be just as good.
DeleteI had to check this one out just from the name! It sounds great. I love sweet and tangy sauce like that.
