Vietnamese-Style Baked Chicken



This Vietnamese-style baked chicken is bursting with flavors of garlic, fish sauce, soy sauce, and honey, resulting in juicy and tender chicken pieces with a deliciously caramelized exterior. Perfect for a flavorful weeknight dinner!

Ingredients:

  • 1 whole chicken, cut into pieces
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons fish sauce
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon five-spice powder
  • 1 teaspoon chili flakes optional
  • Chopped cilantro, for garnish

Instructions:

Fish sauce, soy sauce, honey, lime juice, sesame oil, black pepper, five-spice powder, and chili flakes if using should all be mixed together in a bowl

Put the chicken pieces in the mixture and let them sit for at least an hour, or better yet, overnight in the fridge

Get the oven ready by heating it up to 400F 200C

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and put the chicken pieces that have been marinated on it

Flip the chicken over halfway through the cooking time and bake for another 30 to 40 minutes, or until it is fully cooked and golden brown

Add chopped cilantro as a garnish before serving
