Instructions
- In a large bowl combine honey, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, oil and red chilli flakes.

- Preheat the oven to 375F/200C. Take the chicken pieces out of the marinade and place them on parchment lined shallow baking pan. Reserve the marinade.
- Cook the chicken in the oven for 35-40 minutes or until juices run clear and the skin is dark and slightly blistered. (Internal temperature 180F/82C) Baste with the marinade half way through the cooking for deeper flavour.
