Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 3/4 teaspoon paprika
- 3/4 teaspoon rubbed sage
- 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- Pinch of cayenne pepper
- 3 1/2 pounds mixed chicken parts- legs, thighs, and breast (skin-on), about 8 pieces
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 cup QUICK BARBEQUE SAUCE, recipe follows
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, like soy, corn or peanut
- 1/2 medium Spanish onion, chopped
- 6 cloves garlic, minced
- Pinch of crushed red pepper
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1 (28-ounce) can whole, peeled tomatoes (with puree), pureed
- 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix together the oil, chili powder, paprika, sage, mustard, ginger, and cayenne until a paste is formed.
- Add the chicken pieces and rub the spice paste all over, including under the skin. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours.
- Preheat the broiler. Place a rack about 9 inches from the broiler element. Place the chicken on a foil-lined baking sheet or broiler pan. Season the chicken all over with salt and pepper and arrange skin-side down. Broil for 10 minutes, turning the pan occasionally so the meat cooks evenly. Remove the pan from the oven and baste the meat all over with the sauce, turn the chicken pieces skin side-up and broil, basting and turning the pan occasionally, until cooked through and crispy and the sauce has browned lightly, about 10 minutes more. Transfer to a serving platter and serve immediately.
- Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and crushed pepper and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 45 seconds. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, until lightly browned, about 1 minute more.
- Add the tomatoes, vinegar, sugar, and salt and bring to a boil. Lower the heat, and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until deep red in color and reduced to about 4 cups, about 25 minutes. Season with pepper. Use now, or store, covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 1 month.

Reviews
My favorite oven style bbq chicken recipe. Very easy. You don’t even have to refrigerate for 2 hours. I have seasoned and put straight in the oven, and it taste just as good. One family member thought it was spicey, so I’ve had to lessen some of the powders. I’ve found myself at times not even making the paste, but just sprinkling the ingrediets onto the chicken, and mixing it like that. I do not use the sage. And I like to broil longer than they suggest just to make sure my chicken is done. I do not make the BBQ sauce they suggest, just use whatever bottled one I have around the house. I use this recipe all the time!
The marinade for the chicken was great. I would absolutely use this dish again. (We cooked it out on the grill) However…..the B-B-Q sauce was HORRIBLE. I can’t even describe it, it didn’t look, smell, or taste like B-B-Q sauce. Do yourself and your family a favor and go by already made sauce.
I LOVED IT! I LOVE BARBQUE ANYTHING AND IT SURPASSED MY EXPECTATIONS.
very bitter rub
I make this for my boyfriend. He loves it all the time.. don’t even need a grill.. just a oven and some beers..
Easy way to dress up chicken
The rub in this recipe gives the chicken great flavor. I left it on overnight and actually used store bought sauce, but it turned out great. It’s quick, easy and very tasty. I will definitely make this again!!!
This is a keeper. If you don’t have the energy or time to use the outdoor grill, this is terrific. Great dry rub..I didn’t have all the spices on hand, I substituted with some of my own (cumin, five spice). You could pretty much replace any of the spices and it will still turn out great. I was lazy and used a store-bought bbq sauce. The chicken browned and crusted beautifully, tasted great, and cooked fast! The chicken was tender and juicy too.
The rub and sauce for this chicken give a great mild barbeque flavor. Although I never grilled the chicken in the oven but barbequed it on a outside barbeque grill which only enhanced the great flavor, I am sure it would be just as great. Men love this recipe.
A very simple, very tasty way to broil up chicken. Skin-on, bone-in is really cheap, too. You can always pull the skin off if you want.
