Sticky Maple Chicken

I hardly ever follow recipes, but this one is a winner. The recipe in from Nigella Express and it truely is my favourite type of food: a glorious pile of sticky meat to devour with friends and family.



Sticky Maple Chicken

250ml apple juice
30ml soy sauce
60ml maple syrup
30ml vegetable oil
2 star anise
1 cinamon stick, halved
6 garlic cloves
600g chicken pieces (ribs are good too, or a mixture)

1. Put everything in a large bowl or freezer bag and squish it all around with your fingers
2. Leave to marinade for as long as possible, although tonight I used it straight away and it still tasted good
3. Cook at 200 oC for an hour and a quarter. I did mine in foil on the BBQ for a similar time tonight.

Enjoy with green salad, coleslaw and hunks of crusty bread. A cold beer goes down well, too!

Really does look like a great Nigella dish! I may just have to go buy the book myself now and take it off my wish list ;o)

Made the Jamie Oliver dish tonight - was a hit. I'll blog it soon.

Do you want to dine in RTÉ's "The Restaurant"?

Are you a foodie who loves to eat out?

Do you know your chilli from your cayenne?

Then we want you!

We would like to invite any interested members of Irish food & wine blogs to apply to be a diner on our upcoming series.

The Restaurant is back for its seventh series on RTÉ One. In each
episode a 'celebrity' head chef will take on the culinary challenge to
produce a top class, three course meal with two value-for-money wines.
The celebrities who become chefs for a night will be people who have a
passion for food and dining. The programme will give the "chef" the
opportunity to "go pro" for one night and serve up a real restaurant
meal. The resident critics are Tom Doorley and Paolo Tullio, with one
other special guest critic each week. The identity of the "mystery
chef" will remain secret to all in "The Restaurant" until after the
meal. Before the chef leaves the kitchen the critics will decide
whether the meal is worth a star rating of between one and five. When
the celebrity chef's identity is revealed they sit down with critics
to find out how they fared.

Dining at 'The Restaurant' involves becoming a 'critic' for the
evening. We need YOU, as our diners, to get involved in the experience
and to voice your opinions on the food and wine being served to you.

Vision Independent Productions are looking for diners for the series
which will be filming on location in The Wineport Lodge in Athlone
this September, so if you think you're up to the challenge of
critiquing the menu the mystery "chef" whips up in the kitchen, we
want to hear from you.

For more information or to get involved please contact:

Telephone - 01 864 1444
Mobile - 085 77 080 52
Email - rte1therestaurant@eircom.net

Don't forget to include your contact details - Name, address, phone
number and tell us a little about yourself and your interest cooking
and dining.
