How to make the sticky barbecue chicken marinade

Step 1

Mix the olive oil, lemon juice, Tate & Lyle Light Muscovado Sugar, rosemary and bay leaves in a large bowl. Add the chicken, garlic, lemons and seasoning and toss to lightly coat everything with the oily mixture. Leave to marinate in the fridge for 1 hour or overnight.

TOP TIP

If you’re feeling extra adventurous, a dash of your favourite spice or hot sauce wouldn’t go amiss! If you opt for herbs, our recommendations include cayenne pepper, coriander or cumin, or perhaps even a sprinkle of paprika.

How to make the sticky barbecue chicken

Step 1

If cooking on a BBQ - arrange the chicken, garlic halves and lemons on the barbecue and cook over a moderate heat turning from time to time for about 20-35 minutes, depending on the size of the chicken, or until the chicken is browned and cooked through and the garlic is tender. Transfer to a dish and serve.

Step 2

If cooking in the oven put in oven proof dish and cook in a preheated oven for 35 minutes at 220°C/Fan 200°, 425°F, Gas 7.

TOP TIP

We recommend serving your sticky barbecue chicken with Mediterranean vegetables, a pasta salad, or other meats. Halloumi is also usually a popular and welcome addition, particularly if you already plan to use the barbecue for your sticky chicken.
