This is simple and really yummy. The skin on bone in thighs are a must.

Ingredients

3 tbsp hoisin

2 tbsp honey

1 tbsp oyster sauce

1 tbsp dark soy sauce

3 garlic cloves, chopped

2 tsp Homemade Chinese Five Spice 

4 skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs (or any skin-on chicken pieces)

Steps

• 

  In a large bowl, combine the hoisin, honey, oyster sauce, dark soy sauce, garlic and Chinese five spice. Add the chicken pieces and mix until well coated. Marinate for at least 10 minutes, although 1 hour is best (or overnight if you have the time).

• 

  Preheat oven to 180°C (fan-forced).

• 

  Line a large baking tray or roasting dish with foil. Top with a baking rack and place the chicken pieces onto the rack (make sure you keep the marinade for later). Pour a little water on to the foil to help prevent any marinade dripping on to the foil and burning.

• 

  Transfer tray to the oven and cook, removing every 10 minutes and basting with the reserved marinade, for around 30 minutes or so until the chicken is cooked through.
