Step 1
Preheat oven to 425°F. Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Season all over with salt and pepper.
Step 2
Arrange thighs skin-side up on a large sheet pan, spacing them evenly. Roast for 12 minutes until skin begins to crisp.
Step 3
Whisk together BBQ sauce, hot sauce, honey, paprika, and lime juice in a bowl.
Step 4
Remove pan from oven. Brush glaze all over each thigh, coating skin and sides generously.
Step 5
Return to oven and roast for 8–10 minutes until glaze is sticky and caramelized, thighs are cooked through.
Step 6
Let rest for 2 minutes. Serve hot with extra glaze spooned over the top.
