Best 6 Chicken Barbeque Sauce Recipes

MY MOTHER'S CHICKEN WITH BARBEQUE SAUCE

Steps:

• Prepare the barbeque sauce:
• In a medium saucepan or a large high-sided saute pan, combine the ketchup, cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, light brown sugar, dark brown sugar, dry mustard, Dijon mustard and chili powder. Whisk to blend. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Add the ginger, garlic and lemon slices and stir to combine. Simmer until the vinegar mellows slightly and the flavors start to meld together, about 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool. Discard the ginger pieces.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Position the rack in the lower third of the oven. Line a baking sheet (or, if needed, 2 baking sheets) with foil. Season the chicken parts on both sides with salt, to taste. Pour about 1 1/2 cups of the barbeque sauce into a large bowl. Reserve the remaining sauce on the side. Submerge the chicken pieces in the sauce and arrange them on the prepared baking sheet with some of the lemon slices. The chicken should all be in a single layer with a little space between them. If additional space is needed, use the second baking sheet. Brush with barbeque sauce.
• Put the baking sheet(s) in the oven and bake, undisturbed, for 20 minutes. Remove the chicken from the oven and use a pair of metal tings to turn the pieces to the other side. Use a pastry brush to coat the second side of the chicken with the barbeque sauce from the bowl. Do not reuse that bowl or brush again. Return the sheet(s) to the oven and cook for an additional 15 to 20 minutes. Poke a thigh with the tip of a small knife and verify the chicken juices run "clear" and not pink. Turn the broiler on and broil for a minute until the chicken is charred on top.
• Warm the reserved barbeque sauce in a small saucepan over low heat. Pour into a serving bowl.
• Transfer the chicken to a serving platter and serve immediately with the warm sauce on the side.

LEMON HERB BARBEQUE SAUCE FOR CHICKEN

Steps:

• In a blender or food processor, blend the oil, lemon juice, onion, salt, thyme, marjoram, and garlic until thick and smooth.

CHERRY-JALAPENO BARBEQUE SAUCE ROASTED CHICKEN THIGHS RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Steps:

• *Cherry-Jalapeno Barbeque Sauce: * In a large sauce pan sauté jalapenos and cherries in olive oil for about five minutes or until jalapeno begins to soften. Add garlic and cook for a couple of minutes longer until fragrant. Stir in chili powder and onion powder and cook for one minute. Add the preserves, worcestershire, molasses and liquid smoke and stir to combine. Lastly, add the chicken stock and lemon juice. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat and simmer for about 10 minutes until the sauce begins to thicken. Using a handheld blender (or transfer into a blender or food processor) blend the sauce, being very careful as the sauce is very hot! I like to leave small chunks in the sauce, but you can puree until smooth if desired. If the sauce is too thick add small amount of chicken stock to thin out. Check for seasoning and add salt and pepper as needed. *Roasted Chicken Thighs:* Preheat oven to 450°F. (If you have a cast iron skillet you can use it for both steps. If you do not, sear the chicken in a skillet and then transfer to a baking dish to continue cooking in the oven.) Pat chicken dry and season generously with kosher salt and pepper. Heat about a tablespoon of vegetable oil in your cast iron skillet, over medium-high heat. Skin-side down, add the chicken thighs to the pan and cook for about 5 minutes or until the skin is nice and brown. This is an important step to helping create the best flavor in your chicken. Flip chicken over (or transfer to oven-proof baking dish) and add the barbeque sauce, leaving about 1/3 cup aside. Roast in the oven for about 15-20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. Serve with additional sauce

GRILLED CHICKEN LEGS WITH COCKTAIL BARBEQUE SAUCE

Steps:

• Whisk together 5 tablespoons of the vinegar, 3 tablespoons of the canola oil, 2 teaspoons of the molasses and a pinch of salt and pepper in a large mixing bowl. Add the beans, celery stalks and diced onion. Gently stir to combine. Season with additional salt and pepper if needed. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Heat 3 more tablespoons of the canola oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened and lightly browned, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the garlic and cook until softened, about 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Stir in the cocktail sauce and the remaining molasses and vinegar. Bring to a boil, and then reduce to a simmer. Simmer, uncovered, until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and pour half of the barbeque sauce into a small bowl for basting. Keep the remaining barbeque sauce warm until ready to serve.
• Heat an outdoor grill or large cast-iron grill pan over medium heat. Brush the chicken with the remaining oil and sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Grill the chicken until charred on both sides but not cooked all the way through, 15 to 20 minutes. Baste the chicken liberally with the reserved barbeque sauce and continue cooking until the internal temperature is 160 degrees F, about 5 more minutes. Transfer the chicken to a large plate and allow to rest at least 5 minutes before serving.
• Serve the grilled chicken legs with the remaining warm barbeque sauce and chilled bean salad. Garnish the bean salad with the sliced celery leaves.
