I love this seasoning mix and sometimes double it to get more crunch. It came from Better Homes & Gardens Cookbook with only two slight adaptations. I usually have to dry slices of bread in my oven & send them through the food processor to crumb, but I usually have all of these ingredients on hand.

CRISPY BAKED CHICKEN



Crispy Baked Chicken image

For pull-apart tender chicken with crisp, deeply spiced skin, rub it with a spicy-sweet mix and roast it low and slow while you're doing something else. Because this chicken is cooked at a moderately low temperature, the spices will bloom but not burn, and the chicken fat will render slowly and completely (which means you don't need any oil). The smoky rub in this recipe will turn the chicken skin into what tastes like a barbecue potato chip, but you can use other spice blends, too, like garam masala or Montreal steak seasoning. Just be sure your mix includes sugar for browning and salt for accentuating flavors. Whole chicken legs (with the thigh and drumstick attached) provide a more generous portion of juicy meat and skin that shatters, but a mix of drumsticks and bone-in thighs work, too.

Categories     dinner, lunch, poultry, main course

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 teaspoons dark brown sugar
2 teaspoons smoked paprika
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
A heaping 1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne
4 chicken leg quarters (about 2 ½ to 3 pounds), patted dry

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 325 degrees. In a small bowl, stir together the brown sugar, paprika, salt, black pepper and cayenne with a fork or your fingers. Rub the spice mix all over the chicken. (You can do this step 1 to 12 hours ahead. Refrigerate uncovered, then bring to room temperature before cooking.)
  • Place the chicken on a parchment-lined baking sheet, skin side up. Bake, without flipping, until the chicken is cooked through and the skin is crisp, 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes. Eat the chicken with pan drippings spooned over top.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken pieces: Bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs or breasts are best for this recipe. They will stay moist and juicy during baking.
  • Make sure the chicken is dry: Pat the chicken pieces dry with paper towels before seasoning them. This will help the barbecue sauce stick to the chicken and create a crispy crust.
  • Use a good quality barbecue sauce: Choose a sauce that you like the taste of and that is thick enough to coat the chicken. You can use a store-bought sauce or make your own.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking sheet: Make sure there is enough space between the chicken pieces so that they can cook evenly. If the chicken is too crowded, it will not cook properly.
  • Bake the chicken at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy crust on the chicken. Bake the chicken at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
  • Let the chicken rest before serving: This will help the juices redistribute throughout the chicken and make it more tender. Let the chicken rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

Crispy baked barbecue chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its crispy crust, juicy interior, and flavorful barbecue sauce, this chicken is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give crispy baked barbecue chicken a try. You won't be disappointed!
