MICROWAVE BARBECUE CHICKEN 
2 1/2 to 3 lb. broiler-fryer chicken, cut up
3 tbsp. ketchup
2 tbsp. vinegar
1 tbsp. lemon juice
2 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
2 tbsp. firmly packed dark brown sugar
2 tbsp. butter
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. cornstarch

Wash and dry chicken pieces. Combine remaining ingredients, except cornstarch, in a 8 to 9 inch pie plate. Microwave on high for 1 minute or until butter is melted; mix well. Dip chicken pieces in sauce. Arrange sauce coated chicken pieces in 13 x 9 inch flat baking dish. Cover with plastic wrap. Microwave on high 18 to 20 minutes or until tender. Let stand, covered, 4 to 5 minutes. Combine cornstarch and remaining sauce. Microwave at high for 1 minute and drizzle over chicken to serve.

Since microwave ovens vary in power, you may need to adjust your cooking time.
