Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Whisk together brown sugar, barbecue sauce, ketchup, honey, and soy sauce in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Set aside 1/2 cup of the mixture and refrigerate for basting. Add chicken thighs to the remaining marinade and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 2 to 6 hours.
Step 2
When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
Step 3
Remove chicken from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade. Place chicken in a glass baking dish.
Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven, basting occasionally with the reserved 1/2 cup marinade, until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 30 to 40 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
