Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
 

  • 2 chicken legs or breasts, or 4 drumsticks
  • 1/4 cup (65g) melted butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • Tabasco sauce, to taste
  • Salt, to taste

Method
 

  1. Put the butter in a mug and melt it in the microwave.
  2. Stir in the hot sauce, onion powder and Worcestershire sauce.
  3. Pour 2/3 of this mixture over the chicken and rub it in.
  4. Let the chicken marinate for 1/2 hour in the refrigerator.
  5. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F or 200 degrees C.
  6. Sprinkle salt over the chicken and bake for 45 minutes or until nearly done.
  7. Chicken breasts will need less time than legs, so keep an eye on the chicken.
  8. Pour over the remaining marinade and keep cooking until done.
  9. You can use the broiler to crisp up the skin at the end if you want.
  10. Serve the chicken hot, with the blue cheese, veggies, lettuce, ranch dressing and anything else you fancy.

Notes

If you have anything left over, the chicken is also good served cold the next day.
Keep the veggie batons in water in the refrigerator to keep them fresh overnight and stop them drying out.
