OVEN GRILLED CHICKEN RECIPE

If you live in Nigeria, you are probably familiar with the Chicken sold at Shoprite-I feel the Shoprite at Circle Mall makes the best varieties of Chicken and I usually don”t mind driving there to get some. Soon I got tired of driving there and realising that it was not fresh out of the oven/grill and decided to make my own so I can enjoy it just the way I like it!… this oven grilled chicken tastes almost the same if not better than the Shoprite one (lol), I made it for my in laws, they loved it! I make it every time for my family! If you watch my weekly vlogs you would have seen it enough! Let me show you how to make it-don’t forget to click HERE to SUBSCRIBE to my Youtube Channel so that you get all my videos immediately I make them.

INGREDIENTS
5 Chicken quarters
1 Red Onion
1 teaspoon Cameroon Pepper
4 tablespoons Suya Spice
2 teaspoons Salt
1 teaspoon crushed Ginger
2 Seasoning cubes
1 tablespoon Thyme
1 tablespoon Curry
3 Green Chillis
3 tablespoons Olive Oil

PREPARATION

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees-I just leave my top grill on at the highest setting since my cooker does not have numbers on the oven. 
  • In a blender/procerssor, blend all the ingredients together, except the chicken 🙂
  • Wash and dab the chicken  dry with a kitchen towel or just leave to drain.
  • Add the blended marinede into a big bowl and add the chicken, rub it all over the chicken.You can place the chicken in the fridge to marinate for 30 minutes, overnight or cook immediately. I made mine immediately and it was still flavourful.
  • Place the marinated chicken in a baking tray, skin side down first and place in the middle rack of the oven for 15 minutes, keep checking the chicken to make sure it does not burn. 
  • At the 15 minute mark, I reduce the heat and flip the chicken. I also use a cooking brush to apply a bit of olive oil and suya pepper on each side of the chicken, this is just to intensify the flavour. 
  • Check the chicken every 15 minutes and flip, cook for a total of 40 minutes. 
  • This chicken is enjoyed best when you eat it immediately because the skin will be crispy and inside moist!
Yum!
