ROASTED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH PEANUT BUTTER BARBECUE SAUCE



Roasted Chicken Thighs With Peanut Butter Barbecue Sauce image

Peanut butter is the surprise guest in this spicy-sweet barbecue sauce, which cooks up in just 10 minutes. This versatile sauce, which adds nutty richness and depth, keeps for 2 weeks in the fridge and also freezes well. You'll have quite a bit: This recipe yields 2 cups of sauce. It's great to have on hand, doing double-duty as a sauce or a fantastic marinade for chicken or baby back ribs. (If allergies are a concern, substitute in almond butter for the peanut butter.) Serve with sautéed green beans, roasted broccoli or coleslaw.

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 tablespoons canola oil
1/4 cup minced onion (about 1/4 medium onion)
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1/2 cup natural smooth peanut butter
1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup distilled white vinegar
2 tablespoons turbinado or light brown sugar
2 tablespoons unsulphured molasses
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
2 tablespoons canola oil
3/4 cup barbecue sauce
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Make the barbecue sauce: In a medium saucepan, heat oil. Add onion and cook over moderate medium heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 2 minutes. Add tomato paste and cook, stirring, until lightly caramelized and deepened in color, about 2 minutes. Whisk in the remaining ingredients and 6 tablespoons water. Simmer until flavors are combined, and the sauce is slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.
  • Make the chicken: Heat oven to 425 degrees. Set a rack over a rimmed baking sheet.
  • In a large bowl, combine chicken, oil and 1/4 cup of the barbecue sauce and season with salt. Toss to evenly coat and arrange on the rack. Roast, using a brush to baste with the remaining 1/2 cup sauce every 10 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and deep golden in color, about 30 minutes. Serve with the leftover sauce on the side, or store sauce in the refrigerator for later use.

PEANUT BUTTER ROASTED CHICKEN



Peanut Butter Roasted Chicken image

Once, when mom and I were in the kitchen, doing I don't exactly remember what, but probably roasting a chicken, I looked up from where I was staring into the distance and said, 'I wonder what the chicken would taste like with peanut butter'. Point of clarification, I wasn't high, but I was craving peanut butter at the time and it was too close to dinner for a sandwich, and we were having roast chicken. It's not a difficult mental leap. And for the record, it tastes fucking fabulous.

Categories     Whole Chicken

Time 2h20m

Yield 1 chicken, 3-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (5 lb) whole chickens
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/4 honey
1/2 fresh orange
olive oil
crushed thyme (bout a palmful)
crushed rosemary (bout a palmful)
rubbed sage (bout a palmful)

Steps:

  • Start by roasting your chicken the way you normally would. If you don't normally roast your chickens, I'll just put the way we do it here for you. The rest of you can skip this bit.
  • First cover the inside of your chicken in a thin layer of kosher salt.
  • laying the chicken breast side down, cover in a light layer of olive oil and sprinkle with prepared spices, one spice at a time.
  • Turn the chicken over and repeat this. Don't forget to sprinkle some of those spices into the cavity so that the bird is completely flavored.
  • Pop that bird in the oven. Go relax for a bit, unless you have side dishes to prepare. If so, do that, *then* go relax.
  • After the bird's been cooking for about an hour, go back to the kitchen and grab the peanut butter, the honey, and an orange.
  • Cut the orange in half.
  • Eat one half, because you're probably hungry from the smell of roasting chicken and half an orange isn't going to fill you up, especially if someone is there to help you eat it.
  • Mix one half cup of peanut butter and one quarter cup of honey together in a small bowl. It's gonna look really thick.
  • Squeeze that orange into the bowl. Not the one you've been eating, the other half. Squeeze it. Squeeze it hard. Little more. Alright, you can stop.
  • Mix that into your honey and peanut butter and don't freak out if it gets a little grainy at first, it'll smooth out. You can also grate some of the orange peel in there. You don't have to, but it gives it a good texture.
  • Set that in your fridge until the last ten to twenty (thirty on the outside) minutes of roasting for your chicken. You can't do this at the start of the roasting because the peanut butter and honey will just dry up and get hard on the surface of your chicken and not be very appetizing.
  • Pull the chicken out and use a barbecue brush to slather on the peanut butter mixture. Apply as liberally as you want. It's all you. Make sure you get it all over the chicken. If there's any left over, you can slather it on the inside of your chicken if you want. We've never done that, but I suspect it makes the gravy taste very interesting indeed.
  • Put the chicken back in the oven to cook the rest of the allotted time and clean up any mess you've made. Maybe give that last bit of orange to anyone who wouldn't help you make the chicken in the first place.
  • Ding! Timer goes off, pull out the chicken, make gravy if desired, carve up, serve, and enjoy!

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: A whole chicken is ideal for roasting, but you can also use chicken breasts or thighs. If using a whole chicken, make sure it is free of giblets and excess fat.
  • Prepare the chicken: Rinse the chicken inside and out and pat it dry. Season the chicken with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices.
  • Make the peanut butter barbecue sauce: Combine the peanut butter, soy sauce, honey, brown sugar, rice vinegar, garlic, ginger, and cayenne pepper in a bowl. Whisk until smooth.
  • Roast the chicken: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Place the chicken on a baking sheet and roast for 45-60 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  • Baste the chicken: Brush the chicken with the peanut butter barbecue sauce every 15-20 minutes while roasting.
  • Serve the chicken: Once the chicken is cooked through, let it rest for 10 minutes before carving. Serve with additional peanut butter barbecue sauce, if desired.

Conclusion:

This roasted chicken with peanut butter barbecue sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The peanut butter barbecue sauce is the perfect combination of sweet, savory, and tangy flavors, and it pairs perfectly with the tender, juicy chicken.
