Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375ðF (190ðC) or prepare a grill for indirect medium heat.
  2. Pat the chicken pieces dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper.
  3. Heat the cooking oil in a large oven-safe skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
  4. Sear the chicken pieces skin-side down for 5-7 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
  5. Flip the chicken and sear the other side for 3-4 minutes, then remove from pan.
  6. In a small saucepan, combine cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, and any remaining sauce ingredients.
  7. Bring the sauce mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes to thicken.
  8. Return the chicken to the skillet, skin-side up, and spoon half the sauce over the top.
  9. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes until chicken is cooked through.
  10. Remove chicken and brush with the remaining sauce for a glossy, sticky finish.
  11. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow juices to redistribute.
