Kansas City Chicken Thighs with Cornbread

This dish has 3 parts: Chicken, BBQ Sauce, and Cornbread Bites. Cornbread Bites are packaged in a separate plastic container.

QuickThaw: QuickThaw chicken, cornbread bites, and BBQ sauce by submerging well-sealed containers in water for 15–20 minutes.

BBQ Sauce: Add sauce to a microwave-safe dish, cover, and gently microwave until boiling. Divide sauce into two small bowls: half will be used to baste the chicken, and half will be reserved as a side sauce. Keep these two portions separate. The sauce used to baste the chicken must not be mixed with the BBQ sauce served as a side sauce.
