3 Lbs. Chicken "drummies" thawed (not whole wings)
1/2 C. low sodium Soy Sauce

1 teaspoon ground ginger
2 minced garlic cloves
3 or 4 tablespoons vegetable oil

Tips:

  • Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade is what gives the chicken its flavor, so make sure to use one that you love. Some good options include a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, herbs, and spices.
  • Let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors of the marinade to penetrate the chicken and make it more flavorful.
  • Preheat your oven to the correct temperature before baking the chicken: This will help to ensure that the chicken cooks evenly.
  • Bake the chicken until it is cooked through: The best way to check this is to insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the chicken. The chicken is cooked when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Marinated baked chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. By following these tips, you can make sure that your chicken turns out perfect every time. So next time you're looking for a simple and flavorful chicken dish, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
