1tsp Salt
150g Dark Brown Muscovado Sugar
1 Red Onion, finely chopped
3 Garlic Cloves, peeled and crushed
1 Red Chilli, finely chopped
Grated Zest and Juice of an Orange
6 Chicken Legs with Skin on
This is an exotic and warming main dish that I accidentally created one day when a recipe called for the flavour-packed marinade in which my chicken was reclining to be discarded. I ignored the instructions and cooked the chicken in the marinade with such scrumptious results that ever since it has been known simply as ‘Delicious Chicken’! Take note that the chilli is a subtle note and does not overpower the dish.
