3 Ingredient Sticky Barbecue Chicken
Three ingredients and a timer for basting the chicken several times are all you need to make the best Sticky Barbecue Chicken in the oven!
Equipment
- Baking Sheet
- Parchment Paper Sheets
- Basting Brush
Ingredients
- 10 pieces chicken thighs or drumsticks bone-in, skin on
- 2 cups of your favorite thick barbecue sauce
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil or canola oil
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Rinse and pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Coat the chicken on all sides with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Place the chicken skin side down on a parchement lined, rimmed baking sheet. Bake for 25 minutes.
- Remove chicken from oven and turn the temperature of the oven up to 425 degrees.
- Coat the top of the chicken with barbecue sauce using a basting brush. Use tongs to flip the chicken over, being careful not to tear the skin. Baste the other side of the chicken, and place back in the oven for 7 minutes.
- Remove from oven, baste the top with barbecue sauce, and place back in oven for 7 more minutes.
- Remove from the oven again and baste again, for a total of three times, and place back in oven for 7 more minutes.
- If the chicken hasn't gotten sticky to your liking, move the oven rack up and broil the chicken for 1-3 minutes. Test with a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken has reached 165-f degrees.
