A delightful recipe for a sweet and spicy glazed chicken, perfect for a flavorful dinner.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and the right texture.
Place the chicken in an oven-proof dish.
Use a dish that fits the chicken snugly to keep the glaze concentrated.
In a saucepan, combine the honey and sherry, and heat on low for 2-3 minutes.
Stir constantly to prevent the honey from burning.
Add the lemon juice, soy sauce, and mirin to the saucepan, stirring well.
Ensure the ingredients are well mixed for a uniform flavor.
Mix in the garlic, shallot, ginger, red pepper flakes, and cornstarch, and cook until the glaze thickens.
Keep stirring to avoid lumps and ensure a smooth glaze.
Pour the glaze evenly over the chicken in the dish.
Use a spoon to spread the glaze if needed.
Bake the chicken uncovered in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes.
Check the chicken for doneness by ensuring the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Serve the glazed chicken over a bed of steamed rice and garnish with sliced scallions.
For a fresh touch, add a wedge of lemon on the side.
