In this blog post, we'll show you how to make delicious oven-baked chicken using BBQ rubs, and provide some tips and recipe ideas for making kid-friendly chicken dishes at home.
Benefits of Oven-Baking Chicken with BBQ Rubs
Why use BBQ rubs for oven-baked chicken? Here are a few reasons:
1. BBQ rubs add flavour and depth to the chicken, without the need for heavy sauces or marinades.
2. Oven-baking chicken is a healthier and more convenient option than frying or grilling, as it doesn't require as much oil or attention.
3. Using BBQ rubs allows you to customise the flavour of the chicken to suit your family's tastes and preferences.
Some popular BBQ rubs to try to include Flaming Coals Clucking Mad (no artificial colours or flavours, MSG and Gluten Free) as well as Atomic Chicken Charcoal Chicken Rub. You can even experiment with different combinations of spices and herbs to create your own signature rub.
Tips for Preparing Kid-Friendly Chicken with BBQ Rubs
To get the most out of your BBQ rubs, follow these tips:
1. Choose high-quality chicken. Look for organic or free-range chicken if possible, as it tends to be more flavorful and tender than conventional chicken.
2. Pat your chicken dry
3. Add olive oil to the skin
4. Season the chicken liberally with the Flaming Coals Clucking Mad. Use your hands to massage the rub into the chicken, making sure to cover all sides and crevices. This will help the flavours penetrate the meat and create a flavourful crust.
5. Add your preferred vegetables to the pan, drizzle with olive oil and season with the Flaming Coals Clucking Mad Rub.
6. Cover the pan with aluminium foil
7. Let the chicken rest before baking. This allows the rub to meld with the chicken and helps it cook more evenly.
Here's how to bake chicken with BBQ rubs:
1. Preheat the oven to 180°C.
2. Bake the chicken for 1 hour, or until the internal temperature reaches a minimum of 75°C. You should use an instant-read thermometer to check the temperature of the thickest part of the chicken.
3. Remove the aluminium foil from the pan and cook for a further 15 minutes at 200°C to add a beautiful colour and crispiness to the chicken.
4. Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving.
