Barbecued Chicken


Ingredients

1 (12 fluid ounce) can cola-flavored carbonated beverage
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
2 tablespoons finely chopped onion
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar or cider vinegar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 (3 pound) broiler-fryer chickens, cut in half


Directions

In a saucepan, combine the cola, tomato paste,
onion, wine or vinegar, Worcestershire sauce and
salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer,

basting; cover and refrigerate. Carefully loosen
the skin of the chicken; brush remaining sauce
under skin. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Coat grill rack with nonstick cooking spray

medium heat for 20 minutes. Turn; grill 20-30
minutes longer or until chicken juices run clear,
basting occasionally with reserved sauce.
