In a medium saucepan over high heat, sauté the onion and garlic with the olive oil until soft. Add the remaining ingredients (except for the chicken) and 2 cups water. Mix well or blend in a blender for a few seconds. Simmer the sauce over medium-low heat for 30 to 60 minutes or until BBQ sauce reaches the desired thickness. Cool.

In a large bowl, cover the chicken with the sauce on all sides and marinate for 1 hour, refrigerated and covered.

Grill on medium-high heat, turning for 15 to 20 minutes on each side, until the chicken is cooked.
