Oven Roasted Bbq Chicken Recipes

OVEN BAKED BBQ CHICKEN - WITH QUICK HOMEMADE BARBECUE SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200°C/390°F.
• Sauce: Mix all Sauce ingredients in a ceramic/glass baking dish (Note 3), then mix in water.
• Add chicken and turn to coat. Place chicken skin side down.
• Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from oven, turn chicken, spoon over Sauce.
• Bake for a further 30 minutes, then remove and spoon over Sauce.
• Skim off fat (optional): Tilt pan and spoon or drain off excess fat.
• Broil/grill - Change to broiler/grill on high. Spoon sauce over chicken generously, then place under grill / broiler for 2 to 3 minutes to caramelise the chicken and the sauce to thicken more. Do not walk away - this can happen quickly!
• Serve chicken, garnished with parsley or green onions, if using. Pictured in post with Mashed Potato and Green Bean Salad (minus feta).

BBQ CHICKEN BREASTS IN THE OVEN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking pan with heavy-duty foil to make cleanup easier.
• Prepare chicken breasts by cutting off the rib meat if you wish and rinse and pat dry. Leave the skin on. Season chicken with salt and pepper and put in the pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until juices start to appear, about 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Remove the pan and generously pour 1/2 of the barbecue sauce over chicken. Continue to bake for 20 minutes. Repeat with remaining barbecue sauce and cook until no longer pink in the centers and skin is crispy, 15 to 20 minutes more.

OVEN-ROASTED BBQ CHICKEN

Steps:

• Combine the barbecue sauce, peach preserves, garlic and hot sauce to taste in a medium saucepan and heat over medium heat until nice and hot, 8 to 10 minutes. Set aside.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Drizzle some olive oil on 2 rimmed baking sheets and place the chicken thighs skin-side down. Roast for 25 minutes. Remove from the oven, brush some sauce all over the thighs, then use a spatula to flip them over, being careful not to tear the skin. Brush the tops with more sauce and return to the oven for 7 minutes more. Remove from the oven, brush on more sauce, and return to the oven for another 7 minutes. Remove from the oven, brush on more sauce, and increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees F.
• Continue roasting the chicken thighs until the sauce is starting to brown around the edges and the thighs are totally cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes more. Remove from the oven and let sit for at least 10 minutes before serving. Delicious!
