Serves 6
6 cloves of garlic
1 large shallot
1 tbsp grated fresh
ginger
1 tbsp agave (or sugar)
¼ cup reduced sodium
soy sauce (Tamari for gluten-free.)
½ tsp Chinese
five-spice powder
Freshly ground black
pepper
3 lbs (6) chicken legs
(thighs and legs attached), fat trimmed or 12 chicken thighs
In a blender combine
the marinade ingredients; blend until smooth.
Place the chicken in a
large, resealable zip-top bag or container and pour in the marinade. Toss the
chicken inside the bag to cover evenly with the marinade and refrigerate for
6-8 hours or as long as overnight.
Preheat oven to 400°.
Place the chicken on a rack in a foil lined roasting pan. Create a loose tent
over the chicken with foil.
Roast the chicken in
the center of the oven 30 minutes; remove foil and continue to cook, basting
occasionally until the internal temperature is 165°-170°, about 45 minutes
longer (Insert thermometer between the leg and the thigh).
