Ingredients

• 6 pieces bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
• 1 cup peach preserves
• 1 cup BBQ sauce
• 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 fresh peach, sliced (optional for garnish)
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet or large baking dish with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.

Step 2

Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels and lightly drizzle with olive oil. Rub the garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper evenly onto the chicken.

Step 3

Place the chicken thighs, skin side up, on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced apart. Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.

Step 4

While the chicken is baking, prepare the peachy BBQ glaze. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the peach preserves, BBQ sauce, and apple cider vinegar. Stir until smooth and slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 5

After 25 minutes, remove the chicken from the oven and evenly brush the peachy BBQ glaze over each piece. Return the chicken to the oven and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the skin is caramelized and slightly crisp.

Step 6

Optional: For extra caramelization, broil the chicken on high for 2-3 minutes, watching closely to avoid burning.

Step 7

Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh peach slices and chopped parsley, if desired.

Step 8

Serve warm and enjoy your sweet and tangy Just Peachy Oven BBQ Chicken!
