Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 cup barbecue sauce (such as Sweet Baby Ray's®)
kosher salt and coarsely ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking pan with heavy-duty foil to make cleanup easier.

Repeat with remaining barbecue sauce and cook until no longer pink in the centers and skin is crispy, 15 to 20 minutes more.

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h20m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 quarts water
2 tablespoons kosher salt
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 garlic cloves, smashed with the side of a large knife
4 sprigs fresh thyme
6 chicken legs and thighs, still connected, bone in, skin on, about 10 ounces each
1 slice bacon
1 bunch fresh thyme
Extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped
2 cups ketchup
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup molasses
2 tablespoons red or white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon paprika or smoked paprika if available
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the brine, in a mixing bowl combine the water, salt, sugar, garlic, and thyme. Transfer the brine to a 2-gallon sized re-sealable plastic bag. Add the chicken, close the bag and refrigerate 2 hours (if you've only got 15 minutes, that's fine) to allow the salt and seasonings to penetrate the chicken.
  • Meanwhile, make the sauce. Wrap the bacon around the bunch of thyme and tie with kitchen twine so you have a nice bundle. Heat about 2 tablespoons of oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the thyme and cook slowly 3 to 4 minutes to render the bacon fat and give the sauce a nice smoky taste. Add the onion and garlic and cook slowly without coloring for 5 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients, give the sauce a stir, and turn the heat down to low. Cook slowly for 20 minutes to meld the flavors. Once the sauce is done cooking, remove about 1 1/2 cups of the sauce and reserve for serving along side the chicken at the table. The rest of the barbecue sauce will be used for basing the legs.
  • Preheat oven 375 degrees F.
  • Preheat a grill pan or an outdoor gas or charcoal barbecue to a medium heat. Take a few paper towels and fold them several times to make a thick square. Blot a small amount of oil on the paper towel and carefully and quickly wipe the hot grates of the grill to make a nonstick surface. Take the chicken out of the brine, pat it dry on paper towels. Arrange the chicken pieces on the preheated grill and cook, turn once mid-way, and cook for a total of 10 minutes. Transfer the grill marked chicken to a cookie sheet and then place in the oven. Cook the chicken for 15 minutes, remove it from the oven and then brush liberally, coating every inch of the legs with the barbecue sauce and then return to the oven for 25 to 30 more minutes, basting the chicken for a second time half way through remaining cooking time. Serve with extra sauce.

Tips:

  • For best results, use boneless, skinless chicken breasts that are about the same size. This will help them cook evenly.
  • If you don't have a grill, you can cook the chicken breasts in a grill pan over medium heat.
  • To make sure the chicken is cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the chicken breasts rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat.
  • Serve the chicken breasts with your favorite sides, such as grilled vegetables, mashed potatoes, or coleslaw.

Conclusion:

This simple and delicious barbecue chicken breast recipe is perfect for a weeknight meal or a casual gathering. The chicken is juicy and flavorful, and the barbecue sauce is tangy and sweet. With just a few ingredients and a little bit of time, you can have a delicious meal that the whole family will enjoy.
