Spicy Baked Chicken
Spicy Baked Chicken
"This spicy baked chicken is so yummy! I cut up a whole chicken into pieces, and removed the skin except for the wings (I wanted to test this for a wing recipe). Both skin off or skin on it is super delicious. If you don’t want to cut up a whole chicken, you can use just the legs or thighs. But of course, buying a whole chicken and preparing it yourself saves you money, and who doesn’t like that? You can replace the red Thai chilli peppers with red chilli flakes (about 1/2 tsp) and of course, if you don’t have tomato paste in a tube, opening up a can for a couple of tablespoon is something we all hate to do, but you can freeze what is left over (that is what I usually do) or simply replace it with ketchup."
