A delightful chicken dish with a sweet and tangy sauce, perfect for a family dinner.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and the right texture for the chicken.
Arrange the chicken thighs in a single layer in a 9 x 13 inch baking dish.
Ensure the chicken pieces do not overlap for even cooking.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the barbecue sauce, salsa, mustard, chili powder, and cumin until smooth.
Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if needed.
Pour the sauce over the chicken thighs, turning them to coat evenly.
Use a spoon to ensure all chicken pieces are well coated.
Bake the chicken uncovered in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until fully cooked.
Check the internal temperature of the chicken to ensure it reaches 165°F (74°C).
Serve the chicken hot with your choice of sides, such as rice or vegetables.
Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro for added flavor.
