CHILI-RUBBED CHICKEN

A No. 10 or 11 skillet will accommodate all of the chicken. Or use two small skillets.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Chicken     Chicken Breast Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons chili powder
1 1/2 tablespoons ground cumin
2 tablespoons ground paprika
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 chicken breast halves, with bone in and skin on
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large onion, cut into 1/2-inch rounds
8 sprigs fresh thyme or marjoram

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a small bowl, combine the chili powder, cumin, and paprika, plus salt and pepper to taste. Rub chicken all over with the chili mix.
  • Add olive oil to a large cast-iron or other ovenproof skillet, and swirl to cover bottom. Add onion rounds in a single layer, then thyme. Add chicken, skin side up. Transfer to oven, and bake until the chicken has cooked through, 30 to 40 minutes.
  • Let chicken cool slightly. Using your fingers, remove the bones. Slice each breast, crosswise, into four or five pieces. Serve with the roasted onion rounds and thyme.

Tips:

  • For a spicier rub, increase the amount of chili powder or cayenne pepper.
  • To make a milder rub, decrease the amount of chili powder or cayenne pepper and add more paprika or garlic powder.
  • Use a good quality barbecue sauce for the mop sauce. A thick, rich sauce will help to keep the chicken moist and flavorful.
  • Baste the chicken frequently with the mop sauce to keep it moist and prevent it from drying out.
  • Cook the chicken over indirect heat to prevent it from burning.
  • Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before carving to allow the juices to redistribute.

Conclusion:

This chili rubbed chicken with barbecue mop sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make recipe that is perfect for a summer cookout. The chicken is tender and juicy, with a slightly spicy flavor that is complemented by the sweet and tangy barbecue sauce. This recipe is sure to be a hit with your friends and family.
