1
Trim excess fat from the chicken, leaving some skin intact. Season both sides lightly with sea salt and black pepper.
2
Pat the BBQ dry rub onto both sides of the chicken, coating evenly. Apply honey-garlic sauce to both sides. Optional: let marinate for 1-2 hours, or proceed directly to roasting.
3
Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Place the chicken on it and put into a preheated 400°F oven. Roast uncovered for approximately 40 minutes until the chicken develops a golden color.
4
Remove the chicken from the oven and brush with a generous coat of BBQ sauce. Return to the oven for 5-7 minutes.
5
Flip the chicken over and brush the other side with BBQ sauce. Return to the oven for another 5-7 minutes.
6
Flip back to the original side and brush with a final coat of BBQ sauce. Bake for another 4-5 minutes until fully cooked through.
7
Remove the finished chicken and optionally garnish with chopped fresh parsley to brighten the dish. Serve immediately.
