Wok eggs, fried rice and hot Dry Noodles.
This recipe, from Vietnamese food authority and cookbook author Andrea Nguyen, is everything we love in a weeknight meal: quick, easy and packing a huge flavor payout. Thanks to the deep slashes in the chicken legs, the simple, savory-sweet marinade flavors the meat throughout, not just on the surface. The slashes also speed the cooking process. Serve with jasmine rice and a simple cucumber or cabbage salad.
Servings
Don't cook the chicken directly on the baking sheet, as the juices it releases will scorch. A layer of salt on the baking sheet, under the chicken set on a wire rack, will absorb drippings to prevent burning, and simplifies cleanup. Don't forget to shake off excess marinade before cooking. A little left clinging to the chicken will caramelize beautifully, but too much will create steam and prevent browning.
