Wash the chicken. Add slits so it absorbs more flavours.

Mix all the ingredients for the marinade and marinate the chicken for 2 hours.

Remove from the marinade and roll in cornstarch. Reserve the remaining marinade.

Refrigerate for 2 hours, or overnight like I did.

Preheat oven to 200 C and line the baking pan with parchment paper. Arrange the chicken on the pan and brush oil on them.

Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes at 200 C.

Heat oil in a small sauce pan and saute garlic and the rest of the ingredients from the sauce list. Add the remaining marinade to it. And leave it on simmer till you get a thick sauce.

After 20 mins, remove the foil, and coat the chicken with sauce. Bake again for 10 minutes and keep brushing with the sauce every 5 minutes till the chicken is perfectly cooked.

Once its done, coat again with the sauce to get a nice sauce sticky chicken. Sprinkle garnish on top and enjoy!
