Spicy Honey Glazed Chicken

I've always been looking out for recipes that are simple and fast to make. Well, when you've got a lot on your hands and not much time for preparations, that's always the best way to go.. simple, delish and fast!

The oven is always the equipment I use the most when I'm in the kitchen. For baking, that is! But roasting's a better option then frying, when cooking. Don't you think so?

Well, here's a recipe that I modified from one that I found off the internet. I just love it and will definitely be one that I'd cook regularly. Doesn't it just look delish to you?



Ingredients
8 pieces chicken drumstick / 16 pieces chicken wings
2 tsp finely chopped garlic
1/2 tsp onion powder
1 tsp paprika
3 tsp chili paste
1 tsp salt
1 tsp cumin powder
1 tsp finely chopped coriander
2 tbsp thick soya sauce (ABC)
drizzle of olive oil
1/2 cup honey
1 tbsp vinegar


Method
1) Wash the chicken pieces and pat dry.
2) In a big bowl, mix the garlic, onion powder, paprika, chili paste, salt, cumin powder, coriander, and soya sauce.
3) Marinade the chicken with the mixed spices and let sit for at least 2 hours.
4) Heat the oven to 165 degrees Celcius.
5) Cover a baking tray with aluminium foil and place the marinated chicken pieces on it.
6) Drizzle with olive oil.
7) Bake for about 5 mins.
8) While the chicken is in the oven, heat the honey in the microwave oven for 1 1/2 minutes. Once heated, add the vinegar and mix well.
9) Once the chicken pieces are baked for 5 minutes, glaze them with the honey mixture for another 40 - 45 minutes, turning the pieces every 10 minutes and glaze them every time before turning.

If you're into really spicy food, add another 1 tsp chili paste.If you're not, then omit the chili paste.

Do let me know how yours turned out!
