Tom Yum Chicken

Needs to be marinaded for a while (preferably overnight) but easy and tasty.

Tom Yum Chicken

4-6 chicken legs (thigh and drumstick)

Marinade: 

10 or so shallots
5 or so garlic cloves
3 or so tbsp Tom Yum paste
2 or 3 fresh chillis
1 tbsp pickled jalapenos (or equivalent something. Use something spicy)
3 or 4 lime leaves
2 tbsp honey
spices, salt and pepper to taste

Prepare the marinade by blending it all together with a hand-held blendy thing. Don't add any water, it's meant to be like this. Smear over the chicken (possibly scoring the chicken some to get the taste in) and then leave to marinade for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.

When ready, wrap each piece in tin foil, shove in the oven at 200 degrees and leave to cook for 45min. If not done, use your discretion and cook for longer.

Serve with lemon and coriander.
