Labour of Chook
I was asked to post a recipe useing chicken. That I did. See 'Chook-Chook.
After the fact I discover the person doing the asking can't tolerate Corriander. It turns out (Boy friend), Sup Seb? Don't like it....
Sooooo. I'll chuck up another cooked chook recipe, corriander free.
Portuguese Drumstick::::::
Ingredients:
Eight free range chicken drumsticks.
Juce & zest of 3 lemmons.
2 cloves garlic.
1 tbl spoon palm/ raw sugar.
3 tbl spoons smoked paprika.
2 small red chillis.
1 tbl spoon dryed Oregano.
Olive oil.
Salt, peper.
Method:
Very finely chop the garlic & chilli. (Don't buy the stuff in a jar. It's auful putrid filth. Packed full of textured vegtable protien. Grosssss). Add the juce & zest of lemmon, sugar, paprika, oregano, a splash of olive oil, and a few cracks of salt and peper to a non reactive container. Mix well.
Finely & lightly score the chicken so as to allow the marinade to penatrate. Let the flavor infuse for about 1/2 an hour. Don't leave it for to long because the acid nature of the marinade will tend to cook the chook.
Bake in a kettle (Webber) oven for about 45 minutes. Conventional oven 35 minutes, at 200c.
I have enjoyed this dish served with grilled vegtables cooked in the same oven as the chicken. Wash it down with a crsip lightly chilled white.
