It's usually pretty tasty, here's what I used to prepare the chicken before baking it...

  • Honey
  • Chinese rice wine
  • Smoked garlic and chilli
  • One fresh chilli
  • Some mixed dried herbs
  • Ginger
  • Garlic
  • Spring onion
  • Mixed herbs
  • Red peppercorns
  • Corriander seeds
  • Soyasauce
  • Sesame oil

I guess there are no proportions of what to put in, just don't put in too much honey and/or soyasauce cause it will be either too salty or burn when you bake it. For 4 chicken legs it should take about 35mins in the oven at ~200degree centigrade. I did how ever marinate the chicken over night, and when cooking, I turned the chicken around abit.

I just served it up with potatoes, I guess some plain white rice would also be good. The chicken came out really juicy and not dry at all. The skin probably could have done with a few mins under the grill to crisp up.

I had some chicken left over, so it will be a dijon mustard, salad, chicken and a bread!!! for breakfast/lunch tomorrow.
