We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Preheat oven to moderate 180°C.

  • Step 2: Line your baking dish with baking paper.

  • Step 3: Combine flour, paprika, salt and pepper in a clean plastic bag and add the chicken and toss to coat (I just used a shallow bowl and dipped the chicken in the mix).

  • Step 4: Arrange the chicken in a single layer in the baking dish and brush the chicken with butter and bake for 30 minutes.

  • Step 5: SAUCE - meanwhile, in a small jug, combine all ingredients and season to taste.

  • Step 6: Pour sauce over chicken and return to oven for a further 10 to 30 minutes or until chicken is golden and cooked through.

  • Step 7: Suggest you serve with a salad of choice and prawn crackers, I served with mashed potatoe and steamed vegetables.
