Chicken with honey

Use your favorite chicken spices or don't add them at all, the chicken will be aromatic and delicious thanks to the garlic, soy sauce and lemon. I put a pinch of spices, the composition is as follows: ground chili, paprika, basil, coriander, nutmeg.

So, I’m telling you how to cook “Chicken with Honey”. It is best to take liquid honey, but if this is not available, then warm the candied honey a little in a water bath, it will melt and then mix it with spices, butter and sauce. Instead of vegetable oil, you can put a piece of butter, but melt it first. See the recipe!

Ingredients:

Chicken - 1.5 kilograms;
Liquid honey - 3 tbsp. spoons;
Vegetable oil - 30 Milliliters;
Lemon juice - 1 tbsp. spoon;
Salt, pepper - To taste;
Soy sauce - 4-5 tbsp. spoon;
Spices for chicken - To taste (optional).

How to cook:

1. Wash the chicken very thoroughly, remove any remaining feathers, the coccygeal gland (it is located under the tail of the chicken), and be sure to peel off the rough yellow skin on the legs with a knife.

2. Prepare the marinade. To do this, mix honey with soy sauce, vegetable oil, spices, add garlic (finely chop or pass through a press), salt and ground pepper to taste. Stir. 3. Marinate the chicken inside and out, cover a food bowl with cling film and place in the refrigerator for 2 hours. 4. The chicken can be baked either whole or in parts. My oven is small, so I cut it across the brisket and unwrapped it. This way it will bake faster. To save time on preparing dinner, I immediately put potato wedges on the bottom and placed the chicken on top. 5. Bake the chicken in a hot oven at 240 degrees for 45-50 minutes. Adjust the time and power to your oven. 6. Bon appetit!

How to cook chicken with lemon and honey in the oven

The lemon in this recipe balances the sweetness of the honey and gives the dish an original sourness. But at the same time, it also increases the looseness of the meat, making it softer. All this can be achieved by a marinade made on the basis of these two components.

Ingredients:

Chicken;
Salt;
Pepper;
Honey 2 tbsp. l.;
Lemon.

Cooking method:

Chop the bird into pieces of acceptable size, add salt and pepper. Honey in the amount of 2 tbsp. l. melt and cut half the lemon into thin pieces;
Mix the chicken with honey and pieces of citrus fruit, trying to press them so that they give more juice. Leave the meat for 3/4 hour;
Then remove the chicken pieces and place them in a baking dish. Marinade prepared for chicken in the oven with honey does not need to be used. You can brush the pieces with sour cream on top and place a couple of fresh lemon slices on them;
Place the meat in an oven preheated to 200°C. If possible, you can turn on the air fryer function. For the first 20 minutes, keep the meat at a temperature of 200 ⁰C, and then reduce it to 170 ⁰C and hold for the same amount of time;
If you are on a diet and do not want to get a dish with a golden brown crust, then cover the dish with a lid or foil.
