A delightful chicken dish with a sweet and tangy honey glaze, perfect for any occasion.
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
Preheating ensures even cooking and the right texture.
Place the chicken in an oven-proof dish, either whole or cut into pieces.
Cutting the chicken into pieces allows for quicker cooking and better glaze coverage.
In a mixing bowl, combine the honey and white wine. Stir until the honey is dissolved.
Warming the honey slightly can help it dissolve faster.
Add the soy sauce, lemon juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, and cornflour to the honey mixture. Whisk until smooth.
Ensure the cornflour is fully incorporated to avoid lumps.
Pour the glaze over the chicken, ensuring it is evenly coated.
Use a brush to spread the glaze evenly over the chicken.
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, basting with the glaze halfway through.
Basting helps to keep the chicken moist and enhances the flavor.
Serve the chicken hot, garnished with fresh chives, alongside your choice of sides.
Pair with a fresh salad or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
