KITTENCAL'S ASIAN-GLAZED BAKED CHICKEN
The soy sauce has a slightly dominent flavor to this glaze so if you are not a lover of soy sauce then pass this by, or you may use 1/2 cup soy sauce and 1/4 cup water --- depending on how sweet you want this sauce you may adjust the honey or brown sugar to suit taste, start with stated amounts and add in more if desired ---you may also adjust the chili flakes to suit heat level, if you are in a hurry you could omit browning the chicken firstly --- serve with cooked rice.

- Add in onion and saute for about 3 minutes or until slightly softened, then add in the chopped garlic and chili flakes and cook for about 2 minutes.
- Add in the soy sauce mixture; bring to a simmer mixing constantly, cook until bubbly and thickened (the mixture will be fairly thick) set aside.

- Add in chicken and brown on both sides; remove to prepared baking dish.
- Pour the sauce over the chicken then using your hands or tongs turn the chicken pieces to coat in the sauce (make certain that the chicken is facing skin side up).
