To buy
- 4 thighs (about 1.5 pounds) bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
From your shelf
- 3/4 cup [180 ml] slow-simmered sweet honey barbecue sauce, sweet honey (Kraft)
Staples
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 tablespoon oil
- Heat your oven to 425°F [220°C]. Pat 4 bone-in chicken thighs dry with paper towels and season them on both sides with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
- Coat a sheet pan with 1 tablespoon oil and set the chicken skin-side up on the pan. Roast for 15 minutes until the skin is golden and the internal temperature reaches 165°F [74°C] at the thickest part of the thigh.
- Remove the pan from the oven, brush each thigh with 3 tablespoons of the barbecue sauce total, and return to the oven for 8 minutes until the glaze is sticky and caramelized.
Note Swap bone-in thighs for bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts if you prefer white meat; add two minutes to the initial roast. Leftovers keep in an airtight container for three days; reheat gently in a low oven. Serve with coleslaw and rice or cornbread to soak up the glaze.
