Forgive my long absence as #nanayduties have been back-to-back-to-back. Here’s a new recipe for you mommies, pasensya na po wala ng plating plating 😂😂 BAKED CHICKEN INASAL for the mom who does not have the space, time and patience to grill.
.
I used chicken thighs because it is a lot juicier and yummier when baked, but you can actually use any part you like. For newbie cooking mamas who want to try this dish, here is a rough procedure:
.
Baked chicken inasal
.
1. Preheat oven to 220c.
2. Cook chicken thighs in two cups of water, 3/4 cup of cane or coconut or apple cider vinegar (i used apple cider), juice of 4 pcs calamansi, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1 tbsp salt and pepper, minced ginger and garlic and lemongrass. This should take about 15 minutes. Set aside.
.
2. In a sauce pan, add three tbsps of olive oil, 1 tbsp of butter, and annato powder. Add a bit of salt to taste. Once the butter has been fully melted and you reach a bright orange color, turn off the heat. Why olive oil? Siguro para less guilt when you add some drops of it in the rice 😂
3. Baste the chicken thighs with patis, and then baste using the chicken oil mixture. Arrange the thighs in a baking pan and bake in oven for at least 12 minutes. Some notes: next time i will be including the garlic and ginger and lemongrass i used to boil the chicken so that the aroma can flavor the chicken further while it is baking.
.
4. Turn the chicken thighs over and baste once again with patis and then with the chicken oil. Bake for another 8 minutes.
.
5. Turn the chickn over once again. Baste with patis and chicken oil. Bake for another 3 minutes or until the skin reaches your desired color.
6. Serve with spicy suka and rice!
