Instructions

  1. Let the chicken get to room temperature. Preheat the oven to 430F (220C).
  2. Mix the sage, ground koriander, sumac, black pepper and if used the paprika powder. Rub it onto the chickenleg. Put the leg in the tray, skinside up.
  3. Make a marinade with the coconut amino's, balsamic vinegar and maple syrup.
  4. Cut the leaves from the fennel. Cut into 'steaks' (slices of about an inch). Then cut the bottom of alle the slices. Toss into the marinade and then gather the slices around the chickenleg.
  5. Wash the orange thoroughly. Cut into thin slices. Also toss them into the marinade and then divide on top of the fennel.
  6. Put the tray into the oven for 25 minutes. After 10 minutes, pull out of the oven and drip some left over marinade over the chicken and the oranges. Then also lay the fresh thyme and rosemary sprigs on top.
  7. With 5 to 10 minutes left on the clock, check if the skin isn't burning. When it is about to, and the fennel is not soft yet, cover with some foil. Otherwise leave uncovered, the skin becomes more crispy that way.

Notes

  • Nice to serve with sweet potato or parsnip.
