Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C/400°F/Gas 6.
Put the chicken into a dish and cover with the rest of the ingredients.
Mix well and marinade overnight (or for at least 4 hours)
Put the marinated chicken into an oven proof dish cook for 30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
Notes
Pound the chicken before marinating it. This will help it all be an even size and then it will cook at the same rate.
To marinate the chicken, put it in a zip-lock bag, or a bowl with clingfilm on it.
After the chicken has marinated, discard the marinade and then cook the chicken.
