Looking for an oven baked BBQ chicken recipe. Note that this doubles the original recipe. You can easily halve it.
Ingredients
- 6 Pounds Bone-in skin on dark meat (Wash and pat dry)
- 1 1/2 Bottles BBQ Sauce
- 2 Tablespoons Oil
- 4 Teaspoons Chili powder
- 2 Teaspoons Smoked paprika
- 2 Teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 Teaspoon Baking Powder
- 2 Teaspoons Apple cider vinegar
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 425 degrees. Pour the barbecue sauce into a 9-by-13-inch baking pan or dish, or a large skillet, or another ovenproof vessel that fits the chicken snugly, then shake so the sauce disperses into an even layer.
- Mix together chili powder, paprika, salt & baking powder in a ramekin or similar.
- In a large bowl, toss the chicken with the oil, then add in spice mixture in small batches so you can evenly spread it over the chicken. Arrange the chicken, skin side up, on top of the barbecue sauce. Roast until the chicken skin is crisp, 30 to 35 minutes.
- Scrape the sides of the pan and stir the barbecue sauce to incorporate the caramelized bits into the sauce. Turn the chicken to coat in the sauce, arrange skin-side-up, then spoon sauce on top of the chicken. Roast until the chicken is sticky and charred in spots, 10 to 15 minutes more.
- Transfer chicken to plates. Stir the apple cider vinegar into the sauce remaining in the pan. Serve the chicken with the extra sauce.
