Equipment

  • 1 baking sheet

Ingredients
  

  • 14 chicken legs
  • salt and pepper

bbq sauce

  • 3/4 cup apricot preserves
  • 3 tbsp hoisin sauce
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp rice wine vinegar
  • 1/4 tsp Chinese five spice seasoning

Instructions
 

Preheat oven to 375 degrees

  • Whisk all bbq sauce ingredients together in a small bowl.
  • Dip each leg in sauce and lay back on baking sheet. Place baking sheet on middle rack of preheated oven bake for 30 minutes. Remove and spoon remaining sauce over chicken, return to oven and back for an additional 15 minutes or until meat appears to be falling off bone and the sauce has caramelized on the chicken legs. (if using a meat thermometer internal temperature of leg or thigh meat should be 170-175℉ to be considered safe)

Notes

Note: This can be made with any cut of the chicken, however you may have to adjust the cooking time.
Serve with rice and a vegetable. We prefer roasted green beans or broccoli. Here is how you do that!
Leftovers can be used to make Chicken Fried Rice.
