Oven Baked Chicken!

This is what i usually do with the rest of my chicken thighs that i don't use in the stew.
It's a simple marinade then bake, easiest and tastiest chicken ever!

Ingredient
Chicken thigh, whole x2
onion
garlic
green onion
thai chilli
ginger
light AND dark soy sauce
salt and pepper
cooking alcohol
sugar

Procedure
1. Score chicken, place in large bowl
2. chop half an onion, one clove garlic, one green onion, sliced ginger, and ONE chilli (unless you can really handle your spicy food, don't add more than one chopped chilli)
3. add salt, pepper, and sugar (don't add more sugar than salt and pepper combined)
4. add light (for flavour) and dark (for colour) soy sauce, and cooking alcohol
5. mix with hands and make sure scored side is down and submerged in marinade!
6. marinade over night, bake in preheated 400 F for 40 minutes.

Tips:
1. make sure you WASH YOUR HANDS after mixing with chilli. Guys, you do NOT want to go take a piss without washing your hands.
2. I like to bake on tin foil, this way I don't have to wash the baking tray after and just throw out the foil.
3.if you're up for making it fancier, marinade for shorter amount of time. Take all the marinade juice, with all the onions and garlic, etc -> reduce that in sauce pan over medium heat, serve on baked chicken.

This is a great recipe, and super cheap! (you know what's up college/university students living by yourselves!)

Now give it a try!
