Honey Ginger Chicken
As a tasty treat to eat by themselves or as part of a larger meal.
Ingredients
| - 850 g Chicken (approx). Nibbles or Drumsticks | - 6 tbsp Honey |
| - 1½ tsp Crushed Ginger | - 3 x tbsp Soy Sauce |
| - Sesame Seeds for Sprinkling (optional) |
Instructions
Pre heat oven to 180 degrees.
In a small bowl mix the honey, crushed ginger and soy together into a thick consistency.
Leaving the skin on, toss chicken in plain flour, coating thoroughly.
Line a baking tray with foil and place a rack on top with chicken laid out evenly. Place in oven for 7-8 minutes, until just starting to brown.
Remove from the oven, baste with the sauce. Rotate the chicken with tongs, baste on sauce to the underside, so that the chicken is completely coated, then place back in oven for 7-8 minutes.
Repeat this process until all sauce applied, this should take approx 60 minutes. NOTE: There should be minimal chicken juice leaking into the baking tray during the cooking process, the honey sauce should help lock / contain the juices within the chicken.
Optional: sprinkle some sesame seeds over the chicken, then lightly grill the chicken for a couple of minutes.
Test cut the chicken, its juices should flow out clear.
Rest the chicken for 2-3 minutes. During this time the outside of the chicken will start to harden slightly as the basting will have caramelised.
Serve end enjoy!
Thanks for the recipe Dan!
