Elaboració

Pas a pas

1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch (23x33 cm) baking dish.
Uns 5 min
2
Pat the chicken pieces dry with paper towels and arrange them in a single layer in the prepared dish.
Uns 2 min
Nota de cuina: Drying the chicken helps the skin get crispier and allows the seasoning to adhere better.
3
Season the chicken pieces on all sides with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Uns 1 min
4
In a medium bowl, whisk together the apricot preserves, ketchup, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, onion powder, and paprika until well combined.
Uns 2 min
Nota de cuina: If your preserves are very thick, you can warm them in the microwave for 15-20 seconds to make them easier to whisk.
5
Pour the glaze evenly over the chicken, turning the pieces to ensure they are fully coated.
Uns 1 min
6
Bake in the preheated oven for 50 to 60 minutes, basting the chicken with the pan juices every 20 minutes.
Uns 1 h
Nota de cuina: Basting is key to building a thick, caramelized glaze and keeping the chicken moist.
7
Confirm the chicken is cooked through. An instant-read thermometer should register 74°C (165°F) in the thickest part of a breast, and 80°C (175°F) for thighs.
Uns 1 min
8
Remove the baking dish from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Uns 5 min
Nota de cuina: Resting allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in more tender chicken.
9
Sprinkle with fresh parsley for garnish, if using, and serve.
