Just soooo good. I ziplocked the chicken for about 4 hours. The flavor of the soy and the fresh ginger was distinct in every bite. I have 2 pieces left and I'm planning to have a chicken salad tomorrow. Thanks for another great recipe!

 
Thank you Cyn, and Pat and Charlie! I now have chicken legs "in the bag" for tomorrow. I'm going to

make basmati rice alongside and a veggie stir fry.

 
Is this the Orange Hoisin chix?

It was a huge hit at work, I used to make it for 150 people at least 1 a month for dinner and they loved it...

It's a great recipe!

 
Sandra, that one was posted by Mimi. Here is Pat's recipe:

Spicy Hoisin Chicken

1/2 cup hoisin sauce
1 teaspoon finely grated peeled fresh ginger
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon dried hot red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon Asian sesame oil
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice vinegar (not seasoned rice vinegar)
8 chicken thighs with skin and bones (about 2 3/4 lb)

Preheat oven to 500̊F. (P’s note: I use 400)
Whisk together all ingredients except chicken, then coat chicken all over with sauce. Arrange thighs, skin sides up in 1 layer without crowding, in a foil-lined large shallow baking pan (1 inch deep). Roast in upper third of oven until chicken is cooked through and glaze is brown, 20 to 30 minutes.

Makes 4 servings.

Moyn’s notes 1/15/04: I used two turkey thighs (skin on, bone in) weighing about 3-3/4 lb total. I made the sauce, as written, using about double the garlic & ginger, & more soy & adding chili garlic sauce & some black vinegar, allowing the turkey to marinate, all day, before roasting. As they roasted, I basted a few times and served sprinkled with chopped scallion & black sesame seeds. It tasted like a succulent roast duckling, yummmm!!

Pat’s notes: Delicious, definitely a keeper! Good with steamed jasmine rice and salad of spring mix with tomatoes, cucumbers, blue cheese and ranch dressing. Made it another time using turkey thighs per Moyn's notes and her tweaks of adding chile garlic sauce, more garlic, ginger and soy (it's an easy sauce recipe to dink around with)...reduced the oven temp to 400 and roasted longer, until the turkey thighs were done. Was great served with Michelle/CA’s Sesame Rice and snow peas that were blanched and shocked then sauteed lightly in a tiny amount of olive oil then finished with a drizzle of sesame oil, salt and pepper.

 
Thanks Mark, this one looks great also Pat!

I know we talked about the orange hoising while you were here, which is why I got confused...

Sorry it's happening a lot these days!

 
I really like that one too, Mark. I believe the one Cyn was referring to

is this one. Cyn....which hoisin chicky did you make???? LOL

Hoisin-Marinated Chicken

1/2 cup hoisin sauce
1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon minced peeled fresh ginger
2 tablespoons dark sesame oil
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon dry sherry
4 garlic cloves, minced
8 6-ounce skinless boneless chicken breast halves
Cooking spray

1. Combine first 7 ingredients, stirring with a whisk. Place chicken in a large shallow dish; pour half of hoisin mixture over chicken, turning to coat. Reserve remaining hoisin mixture. Cover and chill chicken mixture 3 hours, turning occasionally.
2. Prepare grill or broiler.
3. Remove chicken from dish; discard marinade. Place chicken on grill rack or broiler pan coated with cooking spray; cook 4 minutes on each side or until done, basting occasionally with reserved hoisin mixture.

Pat's notes: I've used this with chicken breasts with and without bone. The marinade is so good I could drink it. :eek:)

150?! B&B will be a breeze! (Especially if you are on the water!) I am excited to hear about

your new venture! I met a couple last week at a party that just opened a B&B. Lots of work! Although, I am not sure that they have a business plan, or agree on the plan. Funny discussion.

 
150 each night was at the law firm...

when I was cheffing in London,I usually tried to not repeat the menus, except for the things they asked for again -

barb, yes, we can pretty much kiss our lives goodbye with a B&B, but hopefully it will be some fun too!

 
Sandra, there's a group that subs at B&B's so the owners can

get a rest. I have a neighbor who does this and loves it!
