  • 2 tsp ground coriander
  • 2 tbsp malt or any vinegar
  • 2 tbsp dark brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp smoked paprika

  • juice 1 large lemon
  • 6 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 pinch pepper
  • 1 medium chicken, cut into 4 quarters

Instructions
 

  • Place all the ingredients into a liquidiser and blitz to a fine paste; you may need a little more oil to get a nice consistency.
  • Place the quarters into a baking dish and cover well with half of the marinade all over the chicken. Set aside the other half of the sauce to use for mayonnaise and extra sauce.
  • Cover with plastic film and chill for a couple of hours. Best if you can leave overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 200 C gas 6.
  • Heat an ovenproof pan and add a little oil. Add the chicken skin side down and gently sauté over low heat for 10 to 15 minutes, then turn over.
  • Pop the pan into the preheated oven and cook for 15 minutes or until cooked through.
  • Leave to rest covered with foil for at least 20 minutes in a warm place.
  • Serve with some leftover sauce (saving 6-8tbsp), braised rice and macho peas.
