Ingredients
FOR THE BARBECUE SAUCE
1½ c. ketchup
1 c. light brown sugar
½ c. water
¼ c. apple cider vinegar
1 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
1 tbsp. molasses
1½ tsp. kosher salt

3 lb. bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs, drumsticks, and breasts
2 large onions, thinly sliced
1 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine ketchup, brown sugar, water, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire, molasses, and spices. Reserve 1 cup of sauce for later. Add chicken to remaining barbecue sauce. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
Preheat oven to 425° and line a large baking sheet with foil. Place onions on baking sheet, drizzle with oil and toss to coat. Place chicken on top of onions, skin side up and bake until golden and internal temperature reaches 165°, 30 to 40 minutes.
Turn oven to broil. Brush chicken with reserved barbecue sauce on both sides and broil until skin is crispy and sauce is thickened, 5 minutes.
