A sourish sweet and fragrant baked chicken with Thai style sauce. The original recipe calls for the chicken whole legs to be cut into bite size pieces and deep fried until golden brown. Then cooked with seasoning sauce.
As I seldom deep fry meat in my kitchen, I chose to roast the marinated chicken with *an assortment of vegetables like pumpkin, french beans, capsicum, carrots and onions etc. I boiled the seasoning sauce until fragrant and slightly thick, then baste the chicken with the sauce before roasting. Both the chicken and vegetables have a coating of the sauce.
