This is the kind of chicken that you can't stop eating because it is sooooo goood... and it's healthy too! Love it when that happens! You can have it with a green salad, basmati rice, steamed vegetables - anything you desire!

- Skin, wash and pat dry pieces of chicken.
- Mix rest of ingredients well (except salt and pepper), place chicken and marinade in oven-proof dish and turn over chicken until it is coated in the marinade. Then season pieces of chicken (so you know how much salt and pepper goes on each piece).
- Cover in cling film and place in the fridge for at least 3 to 4 hours. Can leave overnight.
- Take chicken out of fridge to come to room temperature at least half an hour before placing in oven.
- Roast in pre-heated 200 C / Gas 6 oven for about 45 minutes, until cooked through but not dry. Enjoy! :-)
Tip
I have also made this with mushrooms and/or diced vegetables (carrots, fennel, courgettes). Yum!

As I was cooking just for myself, I marinated a chicken breast and put it in the oven on some roughly chopped vegetables. It was gorgeous - 20 Jan 2013
