Equipment

  • 1-quart sauce pan
  • baking sheets

Ingredients

  • 3 cups store-bought barbecue sauce
  • 1/2 cup peach preserves
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon hot sauce
  • 12 whole chicken thighs, bone-in, skin on
  • olive oil for brushing

Instructions

  • Combine barbecue sauce, peach preserves, garlic, and hot sauce in a saucepan and heat over medium heat for 5-10 minutes or until nice and hot. Set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Drizzle olive oil on two rimmed baking sheets and place chicken thighs skin side down in the pans.
  • Roast for 25 minutes.
  • Remove from oven briefly, brush sauce all over the thighs, then use a spatula to flip them over to the other side, being careful not to ear the skin. Brush the tops with more sauce and return to the oven for 7 minutes.
  • Remove from oven, brush on more sauce, and return the oven for another 7 minutes.
  • Remove from oven, brush on sauce, and turn up the temperature to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Continue roasting for another 5 to 7 minutes, or until the sauce is staring to brown around the edges and the thighs are totally cooked through.
  • Remove from the oven and let sit for at least 10 minutes before serving.
