Baked Pandan Chicken

 

This is my family favourite. I happened to harvest a lot of pandan leaves so I decided to make these. But it was time consuming for the wrapping part. No wonder some people just wrap it up and secured with a toothpick. But the efforts are worth it. My family give me thumbs up for this recipe.

• 4  Chicken tights meat, Deboned and cut into small pieces

1/4 teaspoon Turmeric Powder
1 Tsp of grinded ginger

 Oven Bake:

 

1. Place on baking tray and bake in preheated oven at 200C for 20 minutes, turn once in-between baking.
2. Then change to grill mode to bake for about 10 minutes for a nice roasted brown colors.
3. Remove and serve with thai chilli sauce.

 Notes : If you do not have an oven, you can proceed to deep fry the chicken. They still taste good but will be oily too. Remember to the oil must at least cover half the chicken.
