Then we prepare the marinade: let the garlic pass through the press, mix it with soy sauce and mustard, add hops-suneli and sugar powder, mix. The resulting marinade rub each piece of chicken, add the chicken in a bowl, pour the remains of the marinade and clean in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours.

Lubricate the tray with vegetable oil andlay out on it pieces of chicken. We cover the baking tray with a foil sheet, bending its edges over the sides of the tray. We put the chicken in the oven, heated to 180 degrees, and bake for 40-50 minutes. Then remove the foil and return the pan to the oven for a few more minutes, so that the chicken blushes.

Chicken with soy sauce and honey

Instead of mustard in the marinade, you can add honey - you will get a piquant sweetish chicken with a crispy ruddy crust. It is baked with potatoes, so in the end you will get a second dish, and a side dish. Prepare these products:

• 
  several medium-sized potatoes

  1 tbsp. l. soy sauce
• 
  1 tsp. honey
• 
  ground black pepper, salt - to taste
• 
  vegetable oil

Chicken thoroughly rinsed under a cold runningwith water and a sharp knife, cut in half in the center of the chest. We rub the chicken with salt and pepper inside and outside (too much salt is not necessary, as the soy sauce is salty in itself). Soy sauce is mixed with honey until a homogeneous consistency. The resulting mixture rubbed the chicken, spread it on the oiled baking sheet back up.

My potato, clean, cut into halves andlightly rub the cutting site with salt. Spread the potatoes with a cut down on the baking tray around the chicken. From above, the potatoes are also lubricated with oil, so that it does not dry up.

Preheat oven to 200 degrees and bake inher chicken with potatoes for 50-60 minutes, from time to time watering with outstanding juice. Potatoes should become soft, and the chicken should stop bleeding when pierced. Do not overdo the chicken in the oven, otherwise the meat will be dryish.
