4 servings
Instructions
- Combine the Marinade Glaze ingredients in a saucepan over medium high heat. Bring to simmer, then turn it down to medium for 10 minutes or so until it reduced by around 1/3 and is a bit syrupy. The pineapple should be softened and starting to breakdown. Give it a mush with a potato masher to help it along.
- Allow Marinade Glaze to cool, then combine in a large ziplock bag or bowl with the chicken.
- Marinate for at least 4 hours, up to 24 hours. You could also freeze the chicken with the marinade.
- Preheat oven to 180C/350F.
- Bring the chicken to room temperature.
- Dip the chicken and Marinade into a baking dish.
- Drizzle over olive oil then spoon over some of the Marinade Glaze onto the drumsticks, ensuring you get some pineapple chunks on the chicken itself.
- Place chicken in the oven and bake for 20 minutes. Remove baking tray from oven and turn the chicken and again spoon the marinade & pineapple bits onto the chicken.
- Bake for a further 15 minutes and check the chicken. If the marinade pooled in the baking dish is looking dry and starting to burn, then pour in a bit of water.
- Return chicken to the oven and bake until dark golden brown and the Marinade Glaze is caramelised and sticky (about 5 to 10 minutes).
- Combine ingredients in a saucepan over high heat. Cover with a lid and bring to boil.
- Turn down heat to low then leave to simmer for 15 to 18 minutes until all the liquid has been absorbed.
- Remove from heat and allow to rest for at least 5 minutes before serving.
- Garnish rice with tasted desiccated coconut (optional).
- Scatter coriander/cilantro over rice and chicken and serve with lime wedges on the side.
