BBQ Chicken Ingredients

Method

BBQ Chicken Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Pat the chicken thighs dry and season both sides with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic, diced red onion, and chopped red pepper. Sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Combine Chicken and Sauce

    In a baking dish, place the seasoned chicken thighs. Pour the homemade BBQ sauce over the chicken, making sure each piece is well-coated. Add the sautéed vegetables on top.

  4. 4

    Bake the Chicken

    Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce is bubbly.

  5. 5

    Add Cheese and Serve

    In the last 5 minutes of baking, sprinkle mozzarella cheese over the chicken. Return to the oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Remove from the oven, garnish with chopped chives, and serve hot.
