Justin accused Hadi of not being innovative for making BBQ chicken (for who know the how many-eth time) but today's chicken actually tasted quite different. I call it BBQ, but we didn't actually BBQ grill, we use d an oven. It was just BBQ flavoured :P Hadi didn't have time to marinate it, but he actually managed to make it very flavoursome. We followed some tips from Ka Anum (my cookery adviser, haha):
1. Boil the chicken for a few seconds before putting it in the marinade
2. Add some kunyit (turmeric). This helps the flavour go in.
3. Marinate for as long as you can :P Didn't manage to do this, haha.
Some tips from our house:
4. Always always always have skin on the chicken. Keeps it nice and juicy, plus that's where most of the flavour goes :P Its the BEST part! *drool* I know, i know...unhealthy... :P
Anyways, for the marinade, Hadi tried to stretch it coz we were almost out of BBQ sauce (man, we need to go buy stuff..). In addition to the BBQ sauce, he added garlic powder, white pepper, tomato sauce, chicken seasoning (from Sainsbury's), turmeric, BBQ powder (from Tesco's) and chicken stock. All amounts added according to taste :P Don't forget to add the chicken! haha. Pop it into the oven (180C) and wait for it to cook ^_^ Hadi added some quartered onions into the roasting pan as a side as well. The whole thing turned out really nice, like I said. The main flavour was from the BBQ sauce and kunyit (Hadi put in a LOT :P) and the other seasonings kinda blended in. The chicken was just nicely cooked as well. Very yummy....
For dessert, we had mini cones! EIGHT of them! Wah! It was so yummy. They were alternating white chocolate coating (with chocolate ice cream) and milk chocolate coating (with vanilla ice cream). They were tiny, about half the size of my fist , but even so, eight was a bit too much for me :P Managed to finish them though, hahaha. *burp* They were cheap as well! 30 cones for 2 pounds! o.0 I don't think we'll be getting any more though.... Justin thinks we've been eating too much junk the last few days :P Oh well....
