SWEET & TANGY OVEN-BAKED SPATCHCOCK CHICKEN

October 2, 2023 No Comments

Hello Everyone,

I think I can actually agree that I eat too much chicken at this point and need to start venturing out to other meats. Today is all about this scrumptious sweet & tangy oven-baked spatchcock chicken recipe. Very simple and comes out so juicy. The best part is the oven does everything for you and all you have to do is make the sauce, coat and back to the oven it goes. First things first, let’s talk about the prepping of the chicken.

How To Spatchcock A Chicken

Take your chicken and place it upside down on your cutting board.
The main thing is to cut off the backbone starting from the neck upwards to the tail.
You can use kitchen scissors or my go-to a sharp kitchen knife.
Once the backbone is out, turn it right side up and gently press the breast bones gently to flatten it out.
That’s it and you have a spatchcocked chicken.

Hi there,

Let’s just say life happens and I am now trying to get back to posting more and this time stick to it. Anyway, I hope you have all been fine and as always, It wouldn’t be right if I didn’t come back with a great recipe to share with you. This came about like a fluke whereby I had some left-over chicken tenders and some panko breadcrumbs hence where these panko-crusted crispy oven-baked chicken tenders came into fruition.

OVEN-BAKED HONEY SOY CHICKEN

February 17, 2021 50 Comments

Hello Lovely People,

I hope you are all doing great and having a great week so far, another week calls for another recipe and let me just tell you this one is a keeper. A delicious oven-baked honey soy chicken recipe is what I have for you today, now I just have to confess that I have tried similar chicken recipes before but always ended up with blackened meat and not well cooked inside. After many trial and errors, I found the right way to cook these and they turned out perfect. I did end up marinating my chicken for 3 hours but I do know there are times when you just don’t have all that time, so I would suggest a minimum of 30 minutes when it comes to marinating and it will still hold on to the flavours and turn out great. All you’ll need;
