Southern Thai Baked Chicken

Ingredients:
2 whole chicken thighs and drumsticks

Marinade:
3 garlic cloves (minced)
2 tbsp. fish sauce
2 tbsp. oyster sauce
1 tsp. grounded white pepper
1 1/2 tbsp. coriander (finely chopped)
1 tbsp. ground tumeric
1 1/2 tbsp. brown sugar

Methods:

1. Combine marinade ingredients in a bowl.
2. Coat the chicken thoroughly with marinade.  Place the chicken into a zip lock bag, press to release air and seal tightly.  Marinate in the fridge overnight.
3. Take out the chicken and bring to room temperature before baking.
4. Place a baking rack over a baking sheet, spray with oil and place the chicken on the rack, skin side up.  Scrape all marinade out of the bowl and dab onto chicken.
5. Bake in a convention oven of 180 degree Celsius for 35 to 45 minutes until deep golden brown and chicken is cooked through.  Turn over the chicken half way through baking.
6. Allow to rest for few minutes before serving.

This recipe can be baked or grilled using any kinds of meat.  It can be served with rice but this time round I decided to serve it with mashed potatoes drizzled with gravy and cucumbers.

I adapted this recipe from Nagi of RecipeTin Eats.
