Ingredients

  • 1/3 Cup honey
  • 1/4 Cup soy sauce
  • 1/2 Cup water
  • 4 cloves Garlic crushed
  • 1 inch piece ginger root grated

  • 2 Carrots peeled and cut into small slices
  • 2 lb chicken cut into pieces

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Place all the chicken in a large roasting dish. Evenly spread over the carrots and the celery. Set aside.
  • In a small saucepan set over medium heat, add the olive oil, garlic and ginger. Stir for a minute and add the soy sauce, honey, chili paste, salt, pepper and water.
