Caramelized Baked Chicken Legs or Wings
- 8 chicken legs or 12 chicken wings
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Optional garnish: sesame seeds, chopped green onions
1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or use a greased baking dish.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, ketchup, honey, brown sugar, olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, black pepper, and salt until well combined.
3. Place the chicken legs or wings in a zip-top bag and pour the marinade over them. Close the bag, ensuring the chicken is evenly coated with the marinade. Allow it to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best results.
4. Remove the chicken from the marinade, reserving the excess marinade for later use. Place the chicken legs or wings on the prepared baking sheet or dish, making sure they are not touching each other.
5. Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for about 40-45 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Baste the chicken with the reserved marinade every 10-15 minutes, turning the legs or wings to ensure even coating and caramelization. Discard any remaining marinade.
6. Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions if desired. Serve hot.
