We eat a fair bit of chicken in our house, and sometimes it’s nice to have something flavoursome instead of plain chicken. So here’s the recipe Phil and I use to make it a bit more interesting:
INGREDIENTS:
- Either 12 x Chicken Drumsticks OR 6 x Chicken Skinless/Boneless Thighs
- 1/2 cup Soy Sauce (Gluten Free if needed)
- 1/3 cup Honey
- 1 Lemon, juiced
- 1 Garlic Clove, crushed
DIRECTIONS:
- Preheat your oven to 190 degrees Celsius
- Combine all of the sauce ingredients in a bowl and mix well
- Add the chicken, and stir well
- OPTIONAL: cover the bowl with plastic wrap (lol) and place in the fridge for an hour or so
- Place the chicken in a single layer in a dish and cover with tinfoil
- Cook in the oven for 25 minutes
- Remove tin foil and cook without the cover for the last 20 minutes
- Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly before serving
- Serve with rice, or mashed potato and your favourite vegetables
Sometimes I want to serve the leftover marinade with the dish, so once you’ve removed the raw chicken, using a sieve drain the marinade into another bowl (to remove any raw bits of chicken). When you need the sauce, just add to a pan and reheat until boiling. Reduce to a simmer for 10 mins and if necessary thicken with cornflour.
You can also use this recipe for chicken wings, and if necessary you can add sesame seeds when garnishing.
ENJOY!
