Barbecue Chicken Chinese Style

We really enjoyed this marinade. Instead of just sitting on top of the chicken, each bite was infused with flavor. Yes, infused. I found it originally in a DVO newsletter.

Barbecue Chicken Chinese Style

from http://www.dvo.com

1 cut up frying chicken (or 5 to 6 legs and thighs)
3 tbsp vegetable or canola oil
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/3 cup soy sauce
1 tsp dry mustard
1/4 tsp pepper


Mix oil, ginger, garlic powder, soy sauce, dry mustard and pepper.

Place chicken in a large baking dish, and pour the marinade over the chicken.

Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. The longer you can let it marinate, the better the flavor will be. If you leave it overnight, it will be amazing!

Place chicken on a roasting pan (I recommend lining the bottom with foil for quicker clean-up).

Bake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes (or for crispier skin, cook for 60 minutes).

Every 15 minutes, baste the chicken with the drippings (don't skip this step!).

After 50 minutes, turn the oven to 450 degrees for another 10 minutes.
