HOW TO COOK MOUTH WATERING CHICKEN USING A NUWAVE OVEN

Steps:

• Place your chicken on the wire rack of the NuWave oven. Lightly brush the top side with olive oil. Sprinkle on your favorite spices. We used salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder and cayenne pepper.
• Replace the dome. Select COOK TIME, punch in 12 minutes and hit start.
• After your 12 minutes are up, turn your chicken over and repeat the seasoning and cooking process to the other side.
• After cooking for 12 minutes on each side, your chicken should be cooked through, juicy and ready to serve. However, if you wish to add barbecue sauce like I did, go ahead and brush that on after the original cook time.
• Brush on your favorite BBQ sauce and cook for an additional 3 minutes. Flip the chicken and coat the other side in sauce and cook for 3 minutes more. This is not an absolute necessity, but I like the way the NuWave bakes the sauce onto the chicken and gives it a crispy coating.
