With the tip of a sharp knife, cut into each chicken piece one or two times by about 1/2 an inch. (This will help the marinade penetrate.) Place the chicken pieces and the marinade in a gallon-size freezer bag. Rotate the bad so that sll the chicken pieces are coated with the marinade. Seal the bag and place in a bowl in the refrigerator (in case of leakage) Let marinate for 2 hours.2. Preheat ovein to 425 Deg. Remove chicken from marinade andplace in a single layer in a large baking dish, Reserve the marinade. Use a pastry brush to brush a little oil on to each piece of chicken3. Bake for a total of 50 to 55 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through, juices running clear (Breast have an internal temperature of 165 Deg and thights are 175 Deg) Halfway throught the baking, at about the 25 minute mark, baste the chicken pieces generously with reserved marinade.4. Depending on the size of the breast, they may be ready before the thighs, so if you are cooking a mix of chicken parts, keep that in mind, you may have to take them out of the oven before the thighs.5. Let rest, covered in foil, for 10 minutes before serving6. Pour the juices from the pan into a serving bowl. Use a tablespoon to skim the fat off the top. (Do not discard down the drain or it will solidify and clog your drain.) Serve the chicken with the juices on the side or a little poured over the top of the chicken.Serving Size: Serves 4 to 6Number of Servings: 6Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user CC0007.
