Preparation
- First, on very low heat, simmer all of the items for the sauce.
- Adjust your sauce by adding a bit extra butter, lemon, and/or salt until the sauce suits your taste.
- Simmer on low heat for as long as you cook your chicken, the longer the better.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Rinse the chicken in cold water and pat completely dry.
- In a bowl, mix the cornstarch and the baking powder.
- Please do not mistake this for baking soda.
- Toss the chicken in the mixture until completely coated.
- Arrange on an oven rack, drizzle with olive oil, and place in the oven.
- On the shelf below, place a baking tray with aluminum foil to catch the drippings.
- Cook until chicken is thoroughly cooked (using a meat thermometer is recommended), and until the skin is crispy.
- When the chicken comes out of the oven, toss it in the sauce and serve over rice.
