Oven Roasted BBQ Chicken is something that I usually start to prepare on a Friday afternoon so that I can have extra time to marinate it overnight and prepare it for lunch on the weekend. Since I will be roasting the chicken over the weekend, I also have extra time to prepare the sides for this. I typically go for cornbread or potato wedges. If I wanted the meal to be more Filipino, I simply cook white rice and have it with pickled papaya, which is also known as “atcharang papaya“.
I suggest that you marinate the chicken for over 8 hours in order for the bird to absorb most of the flavor from the marinade mixture. You will notice the difference of properly marinated chicken when you enjoy it later on. We also want the chicken to be juicy in the inside and cooked perfectly. This is quite a challenge especially for beginners because we are removing the chicken from the oven twice to baste it, and the temperature vs. time ratio won’t be that dependable in this situation. It will be best if you have a meat thermometer handy. Remember, 165F internal temperature means that the chicken is ready. Do not go beyond this as the chicken can get dry.
It will ideal if you can put a greased aluminum foil over a baking tray or pan. This will help you save some time later because there is less items to clean. Once the chicken is cooked, it’s time for you to enjoy the fruit of your labor. I have some side dish suggestions on the recipe below. Happy cooking!

I use panlasang pinoy a lot to help me in the kitchen and the recipes are most always good.
This one however, disappointed me. The taste was pale even after I marinated it as directed using light soy sauce (kikkoman) for 20 hrs actually (8am-5am), and baked it to the settings, directions and time stated. The chicken came out undone, hardly looking the kind posted here and really not as good as I expected it to be.
So I put some slits into the chicken meat, re-basted for the 3rd time, increased by oven temp to 400, and baked for another 15 mins before I got satisfied.

Thanks for the feedback, Estrellita. The time and temperature to get chicken done may vary because different factors such as the kind of oven that we are using, the size and thickness of the chicken, and what have you. I understand how you feel because it happened to me a lot when I was starting out. This is the reason why I strongly recommend the use of a meat thermometer, like what I have in the write-up above, because you will be properly guided. 165F internal temperature is all that we need to be sure that the chicken is cooked just right — do less and the chicken will be raw inside, while going further than that will make the chicken dry.

My chicken dinner for tomorrow. What if I add some 7-up into the marinade?
Vanjo Merano says
That will work too. I have tried it before and I thought that it was perfect. That reminds me of chicken inasal wherein I use lemon soda such as that brand that you mentioned along with vinegar.
