How do you make delicious juicy chicken in soy sauce with honey in the oven? Very simple. First, prepare the necessary ingredients according to the list. Take the weight of the chicken you need. I have a quantity of marinade designed for a bird weighing 2 kg or more. If your bird is less than 2kg, you can reduce the amount of soy sauce, honey, vegetable and butter by a third.

Wash the chicken and dry dry with a paper towel or napkins. Grate the bird with salt and pepper inside and out. Leave the chicken at room temperature while cooking the marinade.

Now prepare the necessary ingredients for the marinade. You can supplement or replace them by keeping the three main ingredients: soy sauce, honey and ginger. The specified spices can be replaced with the finished chicken spice mixture, but read the composition on the packaging. Such mixtures usually already have salt and pepper, so look to avoid salting the dish in combination with soy sauce. Vegetable oil - any. I have olive.

Mix vegetable and butter, honey, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, curry in a bowl. Add freshly ground pepper. Dry garlic and ginger can be replaced with 1 fresh garlic clove and 2cm ginger root to grate over a fine grater.

Mix everything well. You will not succeed in a completely homogeneous mixture - small pieces of butter will float on the surface, but at the very first minutes of heating in the oven they will melt and the marinade will be homogeneous.

Rub the chicken on the outside and inside with the marinade. Leave the bird to marinate in the fridge for 1-2 hours.

And if possible, it's better for the night. The longer the meat is marinated, the softer, tastier, juicier and more aromatic it will turn out.

Place the chicken in a baking dish and pour over the marinade if desired. Since I pickled the bird in the same shape I baked, I just turned the carcass breast up. Bake the chicken in the oven preheated to 180 ° C for about 1. 5 hour. The exact time depends on your oven and the size of the chicken. Water the chicken with juice from the bottom of the mold as often as possible.

Gradually, the marinade thickens, forming the bird's surfaces with a tasty crispy honey crust. Enjoy your meal!
