Step 7: *NOTE* If you want a richer flavor, place raw chicken that's been treated with the sauce, in the fridge for a couple hours before baking. Let set on the counter for 1/2 hour before putting it in the oven to warm up a bit first. Preheat oven to 350°F while the chicken is coming to room temp.
