Instructions

Roughly chop the spring onion and chillies and place in the bowl of a food processor.
Peel the garlic and ginger and add to the processor.
Cut the stalks off the coriander and add the stalks to the processor. Keep the leaves for later.
Give this a quick pulse then add the fresh and dried thyme, mixed spice, chilli flakes, lime juice, honey, salt and olive oil.
Process this until you have a smooth(ish) marinade.
Place the chicken pieces into a large non-metallic bowl and add the marinade.
Cover and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.
Pre-heat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan forced/Gas mark 6.
Line a baking tin with cooking paper and arrange the chicken so they aren't overlapping.
Roast the chicken for an hour.
Remove from the oven and serve sprinkled with fresh coriander and plenty of lime wedges.

Notes

Chicken marylands are what we call the cut of chicken that includes the thigh and the drumstick. Sometimes called chicken quarters.
