Instructions

  1. Make this the day before
  2. Place the chicken thighs into a large Ziploc bag and mix all the marinade ingredients together in a bowl. Pour this over the chicken in the bag and massage it all together until the chicken is well coated.
  3. Store in the fridge overnight, flipping the bag over when / if you remember to do this.
  4. Preheat the oven to 200C and get your rice on the go.
  5. Heat a splash of olive oil in a large non-stick frying pan, remove 4 thighs and shake off as much of the marinade as possible. Fry the skin side down until golden, flip and lightly brown the other side.
  6. Wipe the pan down if it has burned bits on the bottom and repeat this for the remaining 4 thighs.
  7. In a large casserole dish with a lid (or a roasting tray with foil) drizzle over the Worcestershire sauce. Place the chicken pieces on top. Pour over the marinade from the bag and spread it evenly over the chicken. Pace in the hot oven and roast with the lid/foil on for 15 minutes. Remove the lid and roast for a further 10-15 minutes.
  8. Chicken is cooked when the internal temperature is 75C / 165F.
  9. Serve with rice which you can cook while the chicken is roasting. I love a combination of wild and brown rice.
