Add a photoEverybody loves barbecued chicken. And, when it comes to great chicken flavor, thighs are king! Pound for pound chicken thighs have a much richer flavor than breasts and are more economical. I’m using bone-in thighs and removing the fattening skin before cooking. First baking, smothered in my homemade barbecue sauce and later finishing on the grill or in the broiler. This chicken is fantastic! My homemade sauce is slightly sweet and tangy with a bit of a kick. One delicious, barbecued thigh has 197 calories, 4 grams of fat and 5 Weight Watchers POINTS PLUS.

- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a medium saucepan, combine all sauce ingredients and cook over medium heat, stirring often for about 20-25 minutes, until sauce is thickened.
- While sauce is heating, remove all skin from chicken thighs. Place thighs in a 13 x 9 inch Pyrex dish or pan lined with foil.
- Set aside 2 cups barbecue sauce for later. Pour remaining sauce over chicken. Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes.
- To finish off the chicken, broil or cook on the grill.
- To broil: Place chicken on a foil lined baking sheet. Cover chicken with half the remaining sauce. Broil for about 5 minutes until chicken is caramelized. Turn over, spread with remaining sauce and broil for about 5 more minutes until caramelized.
- To grill: Prepare grill to cook at medium heat. Brush chicken with barbecue sauce and cook until caramelized, about 5 minutes. Turn chicken over, brush with more sauce and cook about 5 more minutes until caramelized.
- Makes 12 pieces (each thigh, about 3-4 ounces of chicken)
