Oven “Fried” Chicken Drumsticks With Peach Barbecue Sauce
- 2 pounds chicken drumsticks (about 8)
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon ancho chili powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 3-4 garlic cloves, chopped
- 1 cup ketchup
- 1/2 cup peach preserves
- 1 large fresh peach, pit removed, chopped
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons mirin or rice wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Sriracha hot sauce
- 3 tablespoons packed brown sugar
- Preheat oven to 400u0b0. (If using an air fryer, preheat is not necessary.)
- Pat chicken dry using paper towels. Whisk together salt, chili powder, paprika, and black pepper; season chicken evenly with spice rub. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper; place a baking rack on top of the parchment paper. Arrange the drumsticks on the baking rack. Bake at 400u0b0 for 35 minutes. If using an air fryer, layer the chicken in a "frying basket" and use preset for frying at 30 minutes. (You may have to make 2 batches.)
- To make the sauce, heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Add garlic to pan; cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in all remaining ingredients. Simmer over low heat for 8 minutes. Transfer mixture to a blender and blend until smooth.
- Brush sauce over chicken immediately after removing it from the oven or air fryer. Serve immediately.
