Background

These Chinese-style barbecued chicken legs are made with Chinese spices and a marmalade glaze. Perfect for parties, picnics, BBQs and celebrations all year around, but particularly during the Chinese New Year festivities. It's very easy to prepare but should be marinated for a few hours for the flavours properly to infuse.

Ingredients

8-10 chicken legs (thighs or drumsticks)
2 Tbsp honey
3 cm ginger
1 clove garlic, pressed
½ Tbsp Chinese five spice blend
2 tsp soy sauce
3 Tbsp orange marmalade
1 tsp grated orange peel
1 Tbsp sesame oil

Instructions

Peel and grate the ginger.
Mix the ingredients together, then pour it into a plastic bag. Add the chicken pieces. Tie the bag, shake it around and massage the chicken legs through the bag, making sure that they are well covered with the mixture.
Chill for a couple of hours (up to 4 if you can).
Barbecue or grill on medium heat until cooked through and golden.
Serve warm or cold.
