*If you will like a crispier chicken(as in the last picture), bake the chicken for another 20mins. it will become darker brown, which is perfect for soaked garri.
I am morrocan and i got married to a nigerian man and really ur blog helps me soooo much to make some nice nigerian food . Thank u so much . The chicken looks so much delicious for sure i will try it ( ^^)
What is the second foil meant for please?
Must have been a typo. You need just one sheet of foil.
The knobs on my gas has 4 flame symbols from small to very large. How to i convert to degrees.
I will suggest you start with the middle button, then increase to high in the last 10 minutes.
great i wonder how it will taste i make it. do i add olive oil in it before i put it in the oven ?
You do not have to
Did you add water to the ingredients listed while marinating or you used them dry because I tried it and came out with steamed chicken instead, though it was tasty but didn’t get that crunchy part I wanted.
No I did not add water. Next time simply increase the heat level to get it crispier
do i have to boil the chicken first, somebody help a sister
No!! you don’t have to boil the chicken prior.
Thanks for the recipe. I was just wondering if the temperature listed above is in degrees Fahrenheit or Celsius.
Thanks.
Thanks Ray, temperature is in Celsius.
Thanks. The chicken tasted sooo good :)
Yeiii!! I am happy to hear that :)
Sorry about the smoke, I have never had that experience before. Happy it was easy though :)
Mouthwatering, yummy looking chicken.
It’s almost 12 midnight. I’m sure I’ll dream of this chicken :o)
lol… thanks Ms Gbemi. welcome back.
Ooooh! You sabi berra tin! That last tip about getting the chicken darker brown for enjoying it with soaked garri was just … *no words*
I bake chicken regularly, but usually don’t marinate it overnight. So I will definitely try your method for “flavor-sake.” Thanks!
lol… you know right. Marinating makes all the difference.
