• 3 Tbs fish sauce

• 1 tsp black / white pepper

• (Optional) 2 small kaffir lime leaves, thinly sliced

METHOD:

1. Crush garlic and ginger in mortar and pestle (or toss it all in a food processor, whichever you prefer and have time for!)

2. Marinate for at least 4 hours or (even better) overnight.

3. When ready preheat the oven to 375°F, transfer the chicken, skin side up, to lined baking sheets (trust me, it is not fun soaking and scrubbing for hours after forgetting this step haha!) and distribute the remaining juices on top.

4. Place into he oven and bake for an hour (without turning or opening the oven) until golden and crispy.

5. Remove from oven and serve as is or transfer to a platter and pair with fresh produce and rice!

6. For added presentation, but absolutely optional, garnish with fresh herbs and Thai chili pepper slices. Enjoy!
