Simple cravings... For something simple...

Roasted chicken!  Enough said.

Ingredients:

Chicken (whole/pieces,  skin on,  bone in)
Enough butter to coat chicken (if using salted butter,  skip salt)
Salt
Pepper
Garlic powder

Method :

Clean chicken and pat dry.

Rub butter,  salt &  pepper all over chicken...  Massage chicken as if it's your lover...  ;) sprinkle Garlic powder,  arrange in a shallow pan and roast for 1 hour at 200°c in top &  bottom heat.

Chicken is good enough to eat on its own,  or with trimmings  (Mashed potatoes,  steamed carrots, cream broccoli),  in chicken salad or upcycled to butter chicken...  Nyum!

Baked Garlic Chicken

I am craving for butter chicken,  but for butter chicken,  we need left-over chicken,  to get left-over chicken,  one must have baked chicken or chicken roast.

Let's make...  Baked Garlic Chicken.

Ingredients :

Chicken (about half a kilo)

2 tbsp butter

1 tbsp sweet soya sauce

Salt,  pepper,  garlic powder...

Coconut oil

Method:

Clean chicken,  drain water and wipe with kitchen towel.

Salt &  pepper chicken,  rub in butter,  add garlic powder and add sweet soya sauce.

Grease baking pan with coconut oil.  Arrange chicken in baking pan.  Don't over-crowd.

Let chicken sit while you preheat oven.

Bake for 1 hour at 175°c top and bottom heat.  Then brown for 10 minutes with top heat only...

Add some black magic and poke your knitting needles through the heart of the voodoo doll all the while chanting the name of your enemy in a hateful way...  Opss...  Wrong article...  Just kidding ;)

There you go...  Done.
