1⅓ tbsp chilli sauce

4 chicken thighs

Method

-Preheat oven to 220 C. Line a baking tray with baking paper.

-In a bowl, whisk the egg and chilli sauce. Add the chicken thighs and toss to coat.

-Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until golden and crisp.

-Near the end of the cook time, warm the honey, chilli oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder and a pinch of salt in a small pot until runny and combined.
