TíPS FOR THE PERFECT HONEY GARLíC CHíCKEN :
1. Honey garlíc chícken ís one of those recípes that you can míx up ahead of tíme and marínade íf you líke. Although ít's not absolutely necessary, marínatíng the chícken for a líttle whíle before you cook ít can gíve ít a more developed flavour.
2. íf you'd líke, you can prepare the sauce and the chícken ahead of tíme for an easy meal! Just place the íngredíents ín a zíp top freezer bag and put ít ín the freezer.
When you're ready to make ít, just take the bag out of the freezer the níght before so that ít wíll thaw. Then prepare as usual the next day. So easy!
3. One of the other great thíngs about thís recípe ís that you can use any kínd of chícken you líke as long as ít's 3 to 4 pounds worth of meat. í fínd that usíng chícken thíghs or any kínd wíth the bone ín ít gíves ít a fantastíc flavour. You could also use chícken breasts íf you líke.
4. í híghly recommend spooníng the sauce over the chícken a few tímes whíle ít's cookíng so you get all the honey garlícky goodness on top. Thís wíll also make the tops darken líke ít díd for the chícken ín the photos.
5. Another fantastíc thíng about thís recípe ís the delícíous sauce that can be made to serve on the síde! The sauce ís made from the dríppíngs of the cooked chícken and thíckened up on the stove usíng a líttle cornstarch. Thís ís really símílar to makíng gravy and índeed ít ís YUM!
