This recipes sounds so good and the photo in Recipe+ magazine make look even better. Times are estimated and DO NOT included 20 minutes marinating time. They also suggest that you can replace hoisin sauce with plum sauce. You could also use 2 small twin pack chicken but cooking time will vary. For a quick gravy you could mix powdered gravy with boiling water and minced garlic cloves. If dutch carrots are not available use regular carrots and cut into quarters lenghtwise.

Time 2h5m

Yield 1 Chicken, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon minced garlic clove
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil

Steps:

  • Mix all ingredients in a small bowl.
  • Start roasting chicken as per your normal preferred method, don't glaze the chicken at the start because the skin will burn.
  • Brush the glaze over the chicken when there is 30-45 minutes cooking time remaining. I normally do it with 45 minutes for a fairly dark crispy skin but you may prefer 30 for a lighter colour.
