Directions: |
Directions:Arrange a rack in top third of oven.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Pat the chicken dry with paper towels, then transfer to a bowl.
Toss the salt, cumin, pepper, paprika and powder in a small bowl. Sprinkle
entire spice rub over chicken in bowl. Toss with tongs until pieces are coated.
Cover a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
Transfer onion to baking sheet and drizzle with oil; season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
Spread onion mixture on baking sheet and place chicken legs over skin side up, spacing evenly.
Roast chicken on top rack until skin is rendered and meat is tender all the way to the bone, 45-60 minutes.
Turn on broiler and continue to roast until chicken skin is blistered and crisp in spots, 2–4 minutes.
Remove from oven and let chicken rest 5 minutes to allow juices to settle.
Stir vinegar and barbecue sauce in a small bowl with a pastry brush.
Turn chicken pieces over with tongs.
Push onions toward center of baking sheet to form a pile.
Paint a generous layer of barbecue sauce over surface of chicken.
Using tongs, arrange chicken over onions.
Broil until sauce is caramelized in spots, 2–4 minutes.
Remove baking sheet from oven and turn chicken one more time, placing in same position as before, only sauced side down (the skin should be facing up).
Paint skin sides of chicken generously with barbecue sauce mixture (you most likely won’t use all of it).
Return to top rack and broil until skin is bubbling and charred in spots, about 4 minutes.
Let rest 5–10 minutes. Serve chicken over onions with remaining barbecue sauce mixture. |
