Spicy, sweet, crispy this chicken has it all.
Ingredients:
🔹4-5 cloves of garlic
🔹1 medium sized red onion
🔹1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
🔹1 teaspoon allspice
🔹 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
🔹 1 teaspoon dried thyme
🔹 1 handful of fresh parsley
🔹 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
🔹 pinch of salt
🔹 1 teaspoon of ground ginger
🔹 1-2 teaspoons dried chilli flakes
🔹 2 teaspoons of honey
🔹 2 teaspoons white vinegar
🔹 Juice of 1 lime
1️⃣ Blitz all ingredients in a blender, smear over the chicken ensuring full coverage.
2️⃣ Squeeze the lime juice over the top and cook until the internal temperature reaches 75°C
Notes:
🔸 I used ground ginger and dried chillis but fresh would have been much better
🔸 It’s advisable to wear gloves when handling the marinade but I’d like me you didn’t then wash your hands thoroughly before using the bathroom. (I can’t stress that enough)
🔸 This smells absolutely incredible so be prepared for jealous glances from neighbours and passers by.
🔸I know there’s a lot of ingredients in this one but trust me, don’t omit anything if possible because all the different spices create different levels of flavour. You’ll understand when you taste it.
🔸Marinade should be allowed to sit on the chicken for at least 2 hours but preferably overnight.
🔸I used a free range organic chicken and it tasted absolutely ridiculous but this will work well on any cuts of chicken, pork or ham.
Enjoy,
Belt.
