Jeff Calvert’s Special “Easy” Chicken Dish

You all commented on the chicken I made last Rotary club Christmas party, so here is the recipe!
(Watch the video for further instructions.)

Ingredients:
10-12 Chicken drummies (big ones)
2 tablespoons oil (for baking)

Marinade:
1/4 cup soy sauce 1 tablespoon honey
1 clove garlic 1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon grated ginger salt / pepper
2 tablespoons dry sherry

Preparation: (Drink some wine during the entire process--it helps.)
Mix all marinade ingredients together in bowl.
Bone chicken legs and pull skin back over leg.
Place chicken in large plastic bag (strong one)
Pour the bowl of mixed ingredient into the plastic bag.
Put the bag in refrigerator for 24 hours prior to cooking.
Every few hours, shake bag and turn over to spread the marinade around the chicken prices.
Cooking:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Put oil in large baking tray
Spread the chicken pieces in tray separate from each other
Bake 35 mins and check cooking, maybe 10 minutes more (drink some wine while waiting).
Serve on platter or in a basket casual style (again with wine)

This is a DOUBLE RECIPE that you can halve. I always add an extra portion of sherry. ENJOY!
