Asian-Marinated Baked Chicken
INGREDIENTS
• 1/2 cup soy sauce
• 1/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
• 3 tablespoons peeled and finely chopped fresh ginger (from 1 [3- to 4-inch] piece)
• 1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic (from about 5 medium cloves)
• 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 3 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs, drumsticks, or breasts, or a combination of all three
PREPARATION
Total Time: 1 hr 30 mins, plus at least 12 hrs marinating time |spending a few minutes preparing a handful of ingredients for a marinade gives this dish tons of flavor, plus the bonus of a built-in sauce after the chicken is cooked.
Just combine soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and a little brown sugar in a baking dish, add the chicken, and let it marinate in the fridge overnight.
When you’re ready to cook it, put the whole dish in the oven, and in 40 minutes you’ll have crispy, saucy, flavorful chicken.
Note: If you’re using a glass or ceramic baking dish, bring it up to room temperature before baking, or else your dish could crack!) Serve with rice and a quick vegetable side dish
Game plan: If you’re using chicken breasts for this recipe, cut them in half crosswise before putting them in the marinade so they’ll cook at the same rate as the rest of the chicken pieces.
