List of Ingredients
1/3 cup / 75 mL each: hoisin sauce, maple syrup
2 tbsp / 30 mL each: soy sauce, rice vinegar, ketchup
1 tbsp / 15 mL each: minced garlic and fresh ginger
8 chicken breasts (bone-in, skin-on or skinless)
Recipe
In large shallow bowl, mix together all ingredients except chicken.
Add chicken and turn to coat well on all sides. Cover and
refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to 8 hours; turn chicken
occasionally. Place chicken pieces slightly apart in single layer in
large shallow baking dish (use two if necessary; chicken will brown
best if not crowded). Drizzle any extra marinade over chicken. Bake
in 400F (200C) oven for 35 to 40 minutes, brushing chicken once or
twice with pan juices during last 10 minutes, until browned and
cooked through (juices run clear when chicken is pierced); don't
overcook. Makes 8 servings.
Lemon-Garlic Chicken: A Middle Eastern blend of ingredients (lemon,
garlic, spices and honey) gives great flavour to the chicken and
helps it to brown nicely as it cooks. Follow recipe above, replacing
Maple-Hoisin marinade with this one: Mix together 1/4 cup (50mL)
grated lemon rind, 4 minced garlic cloves, 2 tbsp (30 mL) olive oil
and 1/2 tsp (2 mL) each ground cumin, cinnamon, paprika, salt and
pepper.
