Delicious Oven-Baked Cranberry Barbecue Chicken (Or Turkey Legs) image

This is SOOOO good! You can double the complete recipe and bake in a roaster pan, throw in a chopped green bell pepper and/or a jalapeno pepper also if desired! Four small turkey legs can be used in place of the chicken, if using larger turkey legs then double the cranberry sauce and BBQ sauce, also the cooking time will need to be increased.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I used sunflower seeds instead of almonds in the breading. It was a great substitute.

I'm on a low-carb diet, so I made this recipe without the breading. It was still very good.

I'm a vegetarian, so I made this recipe with tofu instead of chicken. It was delicious!

I didn't have any cranberry sauce, so I used raspberry sauce instead. It turned out great!

The chicken was a little dry. I think I overcooked it. The cranberry barbecue sauce was delicious though.

This recipe was a little too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less cranberry sauce or adding some spice to balance out the sweetness.

I'm not a big fan of chicken, but this recipe changed my mind. The cranberry barbecue sauce was amazing and the chicken was so tender and juicy. I will definitely be making this again.

This recipe was a hit at my last party! I made a double batch and everyone raved about it. The chicken was cooked to perfection and the sauce was delicious. I will definitely be making this again soon.

I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken turned out perfectly. I used a combination of chicken legs and thighs, and they were both cooked through and juicy. The cranberry barbecue sauce was tangy and sweet, and it paired perfectly with the chick
