INGREDIENTS
- 4 chicken thighs (or drumsticks)
- ½ cup strong rooibos tea (steep 1 tea bag in ½ cup warm water for 10 minutes)
- 1 tablespoon honey
- ½ tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 garlic clove, finely pressed
- ½ teaspoon cumin
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ tablespoon olive oil
METHOD
1. In a bowl, whisk together the rooibos tea, honey, soy sauce, garlic, cumin, paprika, salt and pepper. Add the chicken thighs and ensure they are well coated. Marinate for at least 1 hour (or overnight for an even better flavour).
2. Preheat your oven to 180°C. Place the chicken in an ovenproof dish and spoon any extra marinade over the top. Bake for 35-40 minutes until the chicken is golden and cooked through.
3. For extra crispy skin, switch to the grill setting for the last 5 minutes.
4. Serve with your favourite side dish.
