👨‍🍳 조리법

1
In a large bowl, combine lime juice, white wine vinegar, olive oil, minced garlic, minced Scotch bonnet pepper, chopped onion, ground cumin, ground coriander, fresh thyme sprigs, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.
💡 전문가 팁: Pierce chicken pieces with a fork before marinating to help absorb flavors.
2
Add the chicken pieces to the bowl with the marinade. Toss well to ensure each piece is thoroughly coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
3
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
💡 전문가 팁: Ensure oven rack is in the middle position.
4
Transfer the marinated chicken and all the marinade ingredients into a large baking dish. Cover the dish tightly with foil.
💡 전문가 팁: Using a baking dish with a lid is also an option.
5
Bake for 45 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking for another 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the skin is golden brown and slightly crispy.
💡 전문가 팁: Basting the chicken with the pan juices during the uncovered baking time will add extra moisture and flavor.
6
Remove from oven, let rest for a few minutes, and serve hot with pan juices.
💡 전문가 팁: Pairs well with rice, ground provisions, or a fresh salad.
