Instructions
- 1Preheat a fan oven to 392°F (or 428°F for a conventional oven).
- 2Combine all the dry spices—paprika, garlic granules, onion granules, white pepper, parsley, ground coriander, and oregano—in a bowl.
- 3Lightly coat the chicken pieces with a little oil, then rub the spice mixture evenly over all sides of the chicken.
- 4Arrange the seasoned chicken on a wire rack set over a baking tray to allow air circulation.
- 5Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
- 6While the chicken is baking, prepare the glaze by mixing smoky BBQ sauce, sesame seeds, parsley, chilli flakes, brown sugar, and honey in a separate bowl.
- 7After the initial 20 minutes, remove the chicken and brush a generous layer of the glaze onto the pieces.
- 8Return the chicken to the oven and continue baking for another 10 minutes.
- 9Remove the chicken again and brush both sides with additional glaze for extra stickiness.
- 10Bake for a final 5–10 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through, the glaze is caramelised, and the surface is sticky.
- 11Take the chicken out of the oven and let it rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
- 12Serve the sticky BBQ chicken hot, optionally garnished with extra sesame seeds or fresh parsley.
