Hairy Dieters Sticky Chicken

This is another recipe from the Hairy Dieters 'Eat for life' cookbook. Its nice, its not my favourite of their recipes, but the kids really enjoyed it. I think I prefer my sister in laws version of Sticky Chicken. I added some spring onions and coriander for a little extra flavour. 

Ingredients
Serves 4
8 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
5 tbsp of tomato ketchup
1 tbsp red or white wine vinegar
2 tbsp runny honey
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
½ tsp dried chilli flakes
flaked sea salt
freshly ground black pepper

Method
Preheat the oven to 200ºC. Line a large baking tray with foil. Place the chicken thighs on a board and carefully trim off as much visible fat as possible. Season with freshly ground pepper.

Put the ketchup, vinegar, honey, Worcestershire sauce and dried chilli flakes in a medium non stick saucepan and bring to a simmer over a low heat. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the chicken thighs until they are thoroughly coated with the sauce.

Place them on the baking tray and cook in the oven for 15 minutes.

Remove the chicken thighs from the oven and brush them with any sauce that his dripped onto the baking tray. Return to the oven for a further 10 minutes until the chicken is cooked and the coating is glossy. Serve the chicken hot or cold.
